GSDI 11 World Conference
Spatial Data Infrastructure Convergence: Building Bridges to Address Global Challenges
Rotterdam, The Netherlands
15-19 June 2009
http://gsdi.org/gsdi11

The first full day of the GSDI 11 conference is a day of concurrent workshop and tutorial offerings. GSDI-11 invites proposals for workshops and extended tutorials to be offered on Monday 15 June 2009 in Rotterdam. All workshops and tutorials will be open to all GSDI 11 conference attendees at no additional cost.

Workshops and tutorials are expected to be instructional and address skills or a knowledge base germane to the development of spatial data infrastructure. Spatial data infrastructure is broadly defined here as the technology, policies, standards, human resources, and related activities necessary to acquire, process, distribute, use, maintain, and preserve spatial data. The infrastructure incorporates any and all sectors including commercial, government, NGO and non-profit sectors and applications may range from local to global scales.
