NRGS at NACIS Wednesday October 9th 2013

Oct 7, 2013 | FOSS4G, QGIS

I don’t think I could have packed another Acronym into the title.

Yes – I’ll be at NACIS on Wednesday talking about QGIS 2.0. It’s their practical cartography day – and yes I’m part of the unwashed heathen mob when it comes to the cartographic arts…but – it’s too good of an opportunity to not spread the good word about QGIS and FOSS4G. I might even try to slide in some OpenStreetMap if I can work that into 25 minutes.

So if you’re in the area of Greeneville SC show up and enjoy a day or cartography and things. It should be fun.
