The 2016 Conference will feature some exciting “new” tech in GIS and a full day of hands on training in FME.

On Thursday 2nd June Fun with Funky Stuff! sessions will feature:

• Exploring virtual realities with cardboard glasses
• Cardboard to GIS pipeline
• Advanced mobile mapping
• Mapping without GIS software
• Story mapping with ArcGIS online
• What’s new in MapInfo
• And a few surprises…

The FunGIS Spatial Olympics will get you out and about on Thursday afternoon, after which refreshing drinks and nibbles will served on the Terrace.

On Friday 3rd June we have a whole day of hands-on training with FME (Feature Manipulation Engine) – built in to both ArcGIS and MapInfo, and compatible with a variety of software.

FunGIS Exec team member and Canberra Institute of Technology trainer Greg Patterson has arranged for conference registrants to receive a free 6 month license for the FME software – don’t forget to bring your laptop and on Thursday Greg will assist with loading the software ready for Friday’s training.

As an added bonus on Friday FunGIS Conference delegates will be able to attend SSSI Northern Group Conference sessions at no extra cost.
