<div>Featuring Alex Willmer will give a talk on GPS and GIS. He says, "Geospatial Information Systems (GIS) are to geography, what CAD is to engineering. It's revolutionising the field; even whilst itself being revolutionised by the likes of Google Earth & web mapping. I offer a tour of the GIS landscape - the whats, the whos & the whys. A vaguely sciency bit about the workings of GPS, with pictures. Demos of Free/Open Source GIS & satellite navigation (satnav) software. A rundown of geospatial data sources, free as in beer and otherwise. Finally a pitch for OpenStreetMap, a project I'm involved with."
