For years, geospatial has battled a demon: is it a special discipline in which we look at the world, or is it in fact nothing special, and indeed "for everyone"?

Show Notes

The 2009 ESRI Homeland Security GIS Summit will take place July 11-14 in San Diego, California in conjunction with the ESRI International User Conference. As the only geospatial conference dedicated to homeland security, the event is a must for commanders, first responders, GIS specialists, and anyone else interested in geospatial technology for mission-critical decisions. The deadline to register is May 22. For more information visit the registration website.
