SUMMARY:Open Aerial Imagery: Multi-Source Interpretation and Analysis
DESCRIPTION:Available on four separate dates\, the Open Aerial Imagery Association (OAIA) will host a free online and interactive seminar series for citizens of NATO countries. Attendees will have an opportunity to learn from aerial imagery leaders in the fields of intelligence analysis and humanitarian operations. The first focal topic covers how aerial imagery can assist in various humanitarian efforts by way of providing material and logistical assistance to people who need it\, such as the homeless\, refugees\, and victims of natural disasters\, wars and famines. The second demonstrates the relationship between aerial imagery and geospatial data for law enforcement agencies\, the police or other intelligence groups who use it in an effort to predict and prevent crime through mapping. And the final topic shows aerial imagery used as a tool to detect disinformation and hostile information\, which is a heightening problem on a global scale. \nFree 4-hour Live\, Online Seminar Series for citizens of NATO countries. November 25\, 2020; December 2\, 2020; December 9\, 2020; December 16\, 2020 at 1630 UTC (0830 Pacific\, 0930 Mountain\, 1130 Eastern).

SUMMARY:Practical QGIS – 3 day class taught live online
DESCRIPTION:Terra GIS is offering “Practical QGIS” a 3 day class taught online May 26 through 28th\, 2020 live from Seattle. \nEven though this is an online version of the class it will focus on learning QGIS doing practical exercises in a workshop style setting. ArcGIS users will learn how to easily transition to QGIS (or to using QGIS in addition to their existing GIS software/ toolset).  Participants can choose to participate one\, two or all three days. More information at  \nPractical QGIS \nblocked::http://www.terragis.net/gis-classes/practical-qgis/” href=”http://www.terragis.net/gis-classes/practical-qgis/”>http://www.terragis.net/gis-classes/practical-qgis/ \n

SUMMARY:43rd Canadian Cartographic Association Conference at COGS
DESCRIPTION:For the first time\, the CCA is holding its annual meeting at COGS in Nova Scotia. There is a long history between these two parties. In the 1980’s COGS hosted two GIS Summer Institutes\, supported by the CCA. At the beginning of the decade\, NSLSI (now COGS) acquired new mini-computer technology. In the search for mapping software which would run on PRIME computer\, we contacted Esri in California. We acquired both GRID and PIOS. Later\, Scott Morehouse and Dave Bishop came up to install an early version of Arc/Info. This established the long term relationship between COGS and Esri. \nBoth Michael Goodchild and Roger Tomlinson came to Lawrencetown to participate in the GIS Summer Institute. Tomlinson was engaged with Ray Boyle to look at the redesign of the Cartography program. \nThis Summer\, at the CCA meeting\, Michael Goodchild will return as a keynote speaker\, as well as Ken Field\, Cartographer at Esri. COGS Cartography alumni Edie Punt and Clint Loveman will host mapping workshops on ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Maps for Adobe Creative Cloud. A third workshop in Open Source Web Mapping is available from Scott Emmons of UNBC. \nThe other focus of the conference is community mapping. Marcel Morin\, a COGS graduate\, will describe his involvement in the UNESCO World Heritage site at Grand Pré and his work mapping with indigenous peoples of Canada. Ed Symons will present the results of the collaborative research with MapAnnapolis. \n \nThe presentation lineup includes a mix of technical\, research and community focus with talks on topics such as the politics of mapping Wolastoqey Nation in New Brunswick\, Indigenous Cartographies of Arctic Places and Spaces: A critical turn in the mapping of Greenland\, A Biography of Robert Bell: On the Trail of the Great Stone Chief\, Applications of 3D Printing in Physical Geography Education and Urban Visualization and so much more. \nPreliminary details on the conference can be found on the CCA website. A more detail agenda will be available later in April. \n What’s new in the Annapolis Valley? \nIf you have spent time at COGS in Lawrencetown\, you should make a note of the new craft brewery (Lunn’s Mill Beer Company) and also the Beaver Creek Winery.\nAt the college\, aside from the Walter Morrison Map Collection\, you may be interested in the new program on Geospatial Data Analytics.\nIn Nova Scotia\, as elsewhere in Canada\, there is a renewed interest in mapping by the indigenous  (Mi’kma’ki) community. \nRegistration is now open for the 43rd Canadian Cartographic Association conference\, May 30 – June 2nd at the Centre of Geographic Sciences\, Lawrencetown\, Nova Scotia. \nNot a member of the Canadian Cartographic Association but have a passion for maps and cartography? Not a problem … everyone is welcome! \nCCA is a passionate group promoting interest in maps and cartographic material and creating opportunities to network and share ideas. If you have a passion for maps and community\, join us Lawrencetown. We look forward to reconnecting with old friends of COGS\, as well as recent graduates from Cartography programs across the country\, and beyond.

SUMMARY:Northern Ontario GIS Users Event
DESCRIPTION:URISA Ontario is a non-profit\, volunteer community of individuals and organizations who share and innovate in geospatial information knowledge and expertise. With over 1\,000 members and associates\, URISA Ontario supports professional development through networking opportunities\, programs and services.  Our goals are to proactively encourage individuals and organizations to participate in the geospatial information community. We recognize excellence and innovation through our award and bursary programs and encourage personal professional development through our various volunteer opportunities. \nThe event in Thunder Bay will focus on two main areas of interest in the geospatial information community: \n\n\n\nThe cost of capturing LiDAR and Imagery data has come down rapidly\, and there are options for capturing LiDAR and imagery data for small site specific projects or for large land areas. Several presentations at this conference will cover how to capture LiDAR and imagery what to consider and how to use the data. These presentations will be followed by an expert panel question/answer and discussion session \n\n\nMany effective geospatial solutions depend on field data capture and presenting the information in a user friendly application. These presentations will focus on case studies applying data capture solutions and developing end user applications. These presentations will be followed by an expert panel question/answer and discussion session. \n\n\n\nCall for Presentations: \nDo you have experience in either of these areas that you would like to share?  This conference is an opportunity to share your project\, lessons learned and opportunities. The panel discussion period provides an opportunity to collaborate with the geospatial information community. \nPresenting at this conference provides an the opportunity to share your experience and gain recognition from your peers. Many presenters have also found that in sharing experiences\, they connect with other geospatial professionals working in similar areas\, and gain a valuable network. \nPresenters will receive 1 complimentary registration to the conference (limit 1 registration per presentation). Submit your presentation idea online: Submit your presentation idea \nRegistration (due to Easter Holiday\, Early Bird rate extended to April 8) \nEarly Bird – By April 8\, 2018: $100 \nRegular Registration – $125 \nStudents – $30 \nAll registrations include a complimentary 1 year membership in URISA Ontario \nThunder Bay GoGeomatics Social Event\nJoining us from out of town? The GoGeomatics social event will be held: \nTuesday evening\, April 24\, 2018 6:00-9:00 pm.  \nMeet up with Northern Ontario geospatial professionals for an informal social gathering. \nThe Thunder Bay GoGeomatics group along with URISA Ontario are coming together for the meet up this April. Come out and kick off the first URISA Ontario Northern Ontario GIS Users Event with us! You’ll have the opportunity to chat with URISA Ontario Board of Directors and learn about the organization. \n
