Where is Location Based Technology Heading? O'Reilly Where 2.0 Conference wants to know. PDF Print E-mail
Written by O'Reilly Media   
Thursday, 11 October 2007

What are the hot new technologies that will change the way we think about mapping information? The data mashups that will change the way we travel? The innovations that drive local search and shopping? The ultra-local killer app that's about to take off? 

 

We don't need a map to tell us where the geospatial industry is heading, but we do need your input. Proposals are due November 26, 2007.

To submit a proposal to map the future of the geo-spatial industry visit: http://en.oreilly.com/where2008/public/cfp/1

Now in its fourth year, the Where 2.0 Conference is where you'll find open source mapping tools, open standards for data and location web services, and sensors for obtaining location data. You'll learn how the established geo industry is reacting to the first businesses making money from their grassroots geospatial projects. There's no better place to meet the people behind the mash-ups, the people behind the platforms, and the people looking ahead to the future of geospatial.

We don't chase trends, we present them. And that's where you come in. We are seeking proposals, product demonstrations, mashups, and cool new hacks that change the way we think about location based technology.

What are the technology-leading innovations you are working on late into the night? If you are working in the following areas, we want to hear from you:

GeoTargeting
Sensorweb
Open Source Geo-Stack
Real Time Data
Disaster Relief/Environment/NGOs
Crowd Sourced Data
Virtual Worlds

These are just of a few of the topics on our radar screen as we map out the next Where 2.0 Conference. Join us at Where 2.0 to debate and discuss what's viable now, and what's lurking just below the radar. Submit a proposal to make a presentation, lead conference sessions or deliver tutorials at the next Where 2.0. http://en.oreilly.com/where2008/public/cfp/1

Make sure you're signed up for the conference newsletter to receive all the latest updates as plans for the Where 2.0 Conference progress (login required): http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/nl/home#conferences

If you have ideas for speakers and topics that will make the conference a must attend event, send them to:
