GIS

2004-08-13 02:31:15.895571+02 by ebwolf 2 comments

I've been in sunny Southern California for the past week at the ESRI International User Conference in San Diego. This is probably the biggest conference I've ever been too and probably the most productive. GIS breaks down nicely into lots of SIGs and the conference has had multiple paper sessions for every SIG imaginable. I've been catching alot of presentations on mathematical modeling of animal movements - just left separate presentations on grizzly bears, cougars and big horn sheep. I'm particularly interested because the folks doing these studies are mathematicians - in fact - most of them haven't even taken college calculus...

The conference ends tonight and I'm going to be "stuck" here in san Diego until Asha gets back from Canada on Sunday. She's been teaching yoga and anatomy to some high school dancers in Saskatchewan. Then we're off to Colorado to wrap up the last 70 miles of the trail!

Hah! Hadn't thought about that... Maybe I can convince Asha to head to the Playa... Damn... we need tickets and we aren't going to blow that kind of money... Maybe another lifetime...
