Social media is everywhere. Social marketing, blogging, twittering, crowdsourcing you name it, there is a new term or idea floating around by the new media gurus. So, what would, or what is the geospatial community using social media for? Is it for marketing? Is it a new data source? Just another medium that will show promise and then go away because it was adopted fast enough?
The AGG is sponsoring a discussion on the uses and applications of social media within the geospatial industry. A discussion led by Pearson Farnsworth, Founder of GISnation.com will cover the areas of:
- Professional networking with social media
- Crowd sourcing solutions
- Platform integration case studies, and
- Organizational policy concerns with these tools and applications
