NYC Bike Share Map at the AIA Center for Architecture

Naama Lissar — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:54:00 +0000

Earlier this month, the AIA Center for Architecture was packed for the NYC bike share exhibition opening. The evening started with presentations by NYC DOT Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan and Alison Cohen, president of Alta Bicycle Share.

So far, nearly 8,000 New Yorkers suggested a station location using OpenPlans’ interactive bike share map. If you haven’t done so already, suggest a location and discover why bike share is so awesome.

If you want to learn more about the current state of planned locations, check out one of DOT’s community planning workshops. See the timeline here.

We’ve done it again! Five of the OpenGeo workshops at FOSS4G have sold out. This response has us even more excited for this year’s conference. If you want to learn more about any of the following events, reach out to us or come by booth 12 at FOSS4G to chat.

Introduction to PostGIS, Paul Ramsey and Sam Smith
Web Mapping with GeoServer, Mike Pumphrey
OpenLayers Application Development, Tim Schaub
Developing OGC Compliant Web Applications With GeoExt, Andreas Hocevar
A Complete Open Source Web Mapping Stack, Alyssa Wright and Ian Schneider

Don’t worry, there are still plenty of opportunities at FOSS4G to learn about OpenGeo. Tickets are still available for the Opening Data with GeoNode workshop, and for more in depth discussions, there’s always our Meet The Experts sessions.

Outside of Denver there are other opportunities to meet OpenGeo team members. Later in September we’ll be attending the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC) annual conference, followed by exhibiting at GEOINT in October.

Will you be attending these conferences? Want to set to set up a meeting, become a partner, or get involved in open-source communities? Contact us to find out more. The schedules are filling up quickly!

Hope to see you out there.
