Just a reminder that the Maine Municipal Association and Maine GIS Users Group are presenting their combined technical conference on March 11 at the Augusta Civic Center.  This is a great opportunity to find out what is going on in the municipal world, how technical tools can help municipalities, and includes an entire track devoted to GIS use.  Topics include IT disaster management, web design, shoreland zoning and vernal pool mapping, social software, and parcel-deed linkages in online tools, plus many others.  Dr. Jim Page, CEO of James W. Sewall Co., will provide the keynote address "Readying Municipalities for the Future with Spatial Technology".  There will also be a staffed "Doctor's Office" all day where you can bring your GIS questions and we will also showcase the GeoLibrary metadata portal.
