TNRIS invites you to the 2015 GeoRodeo - the 3rd Annual Texas GeoDeveloper Roundup

TNRIS invites you to the 3rd annual GeoRodeo - a roundup of geodevelopers, coders and any professional from across the state of Texas who is looking to incorporate new ideas and creative solutions into their work.

This free, interactive, technical conference, held at the Commons Center of the JJ Pickle Research Campus, is specifically for the Texas GIS/geospatial developer community.

Join us to learn about tips and techniques for open data, open source, and commercial GIS applications.

Keynote Speaker: Andrew Hill - Senior Scientist, Vizzuality and CartoDB

I am new to programming. Will I benefit from this?

Yes, this event is designed to help you make connections and provide some guidance for accomplishing your geospatial goals. There will be an emphasis on coding and breaking down the process for modern geospatial solutions.

Should I bring my own laptop?

Yes, we encourage that you bring your own laptop loaded with whatever tools and code that you want/need. There will be wireless internet connections available. Note: Make sure you have a fully charged battery to avoid power outlet ‘range wars’!

Will there be Lightning Talks?

If you have something quick to share, come prepared with an idea of what you could present within a short 5-minute time slot and sign up for a lightning talk on-site at the event.

Lightning Talk Rules

5 minutes MAX – We will tightly enforce this.
