The speakers, the sessions, the insights that define the direction of the geolocation industry only at Where 2.0



Come to Where 2.0 for the tools, techniques and the trends that shape the geospatial industry. As digital maps find their way from hand held GPS devices to cell phones, cars, and websites, a new breed of neo-geographers has grown to take their place beside the giants of location aware developers and map makers. Where 2.0 is the one place they come together to share ideas, explore new technologies, and demonstrate cutting edge applications.
