Finding Our Way: Collaborative Strategies for Developing Geospatial Services. The 2012 conference theme focuses on the challenges and opportunities of building robust infrastructure to support the wide variety of campus needs for spatial representation of information. The conference will explore the current state-of-play within the CIC, as well as looking at state-of-the-art systems being developed nationally in corporate and educational settings. The program goal is to bring into sharper focus an ideal vision of infrastructure and service in this area, and then strategize about the best ways forward to implement the primary elements of such a vision.
