Santa Rosa GIS Day 2008
November 19, 2008, Santa Rosa's Finley Center (2060 W College Ave)
Farallon will participate in GIS Day event at Santa Rosa's Finley Center (2060 W College Ave, Santa Rosa) https://gis.sonoma-county.org/GISDay.htm . This event is open to the public and will feature presentations, demonstrations, and a map gallery. GIS Day is a grassroots event that reaches out to the community to demonstrate the real-world applications and the importance of GIS.
The theme for this year's event is "Sustaining Our World Through GIS". At a basic level, sustainability is decisions and actions that meet economic and/or environmental needs without preventing future generations from meeting their own needs. GIS is the combination of Geography/Maps and Information Technology.
Farallon will have an exhibition booth highlighting its services and projects. Tomas Lopes, GIS Consultant, will be demonstrating various custom Farallon GIS applications.
