The Indiana Geographic Information Council invites you to attend the third annual Local Government GIS Coordinator Forum taking place September 25th in downtown Indianapolis.
This one-day retreat offers an opportunity to learn about statewide projects, partnership initiatives and meet with other GIS professionals from around Indiana. It is your chance to participate in a candid discussion about the issues and challenges currently facing local government GIS, and ways to successfully meet those challenges.
“Interacting with the other coordinators helps me plan for the future and get a heads-up on what they are currently battling.”
Come be the center of attention! We’ve listened to your feedback, and this year’s Forum has even more time for Q&A, open discussion and roundtable breakouts. The event is open only to local government GIS coordinators, with topics based on local needs and interests.
“I liked the open discussion format. I really learned a lot.”
Parking and lunch are included with this free event.
