The 2008 Alaska Surveying and Mapping
Conference is coming up at the end of
February!
Back in Anchorage after a great
show in Fairbanks, we're moving to the
Sheraton and have put together an excellent
program.
Of greatest significance is the
change to a full 5-day conference. To fill in all
that extra time, we've added a panel to discuss
ANCSA issues, expanded to 15 short
courses, put together an excellent GIS Jam
schedule and technical session program, and organized
several optional tours.

IMPORTANT CHANGE: Mike Londe's course on Wednesday, "Considerations in Setting up a GPS Reference Station" has changed from a full day (8am-5pm) to a half day (8am to 12pm).
ADDITIONAL CLASS Journeyman Geodesy
- Wednesday, Feb 27 | 1pm-5pm
- Instructor: Mike Londe
Efficient and accurate use of GPS and GIS require a basic knowledge of geodesy. However the users of these tools can become overwhelmed when trying to make sense of all of the different realizations of WGS84 or ITRF or NAD 83 datums. These datums are typically referenced to a particular epoch and date. There are differences between these datums and their realizations but are these differences critical?
