SUMMARY:Hacking with Google, Virtual Earth and Yahoo's Maps API I
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Andrew Turner (GeoIQ), Rabble Evan Henshaw-Plat
 h (cuboxsa.com). You can add maps to your site in minutes with  Microsof
 t, Google's, Mapquest, or Yahoo's APIs. However, there's more to geo tha
 n just maps or the big guy's APIs. Learn how and when to use geocoding, 
 reverse-geocoding, place names and other services that you've never hear
  of before.

SUMMARY:Wearable Sensory Substitution Devices for Navigation
DESCRIPTION:Presented by John Zelek (University of Waterloo). Sensory su
 bstitution is the replacement of one’s sensory input (vision, hearing, t
 ouch, taste or smell) by another, while preserving some of the key funct
 ions of the original sense.  We have developed navigation devices for pe
 ople with visual and cognitive impairments.  The wearable tactile device
 s convey gps global information as well as local map information sensed 
 by a camera.

SUMMARY:Decoding the Urban DNA and Harnessing the Power of Social Intell
 igence
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Greg Skibiski (Sense Networks). As we move to a
 nd from places in a city, we generate ambient strands of data that can b
 e collected by positioning technologies, like GPS and Wifi, and analyzed
  with advanced machine learning. Using 3D rendering from Skyrails, peopl
 e's collective movements within the city ultimately creates a unique lin
 ks between places.  These links create a city's unique DNA just waiting 
 to be decoded.

SUMMARY:Realizing Spatial Intelligence on the GeoWeb
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jack Dangermond (Esri). GIS helps businesses an
 d organizations leverage authoritative data and easily deliver it to dec
 ision makers in ways that are intuitive and fit into their existing deci
 sion making processes. GIS is used for asset/data management, planning a
 nd analysis, business operations, and situational awareness.

SUMMARY:Red State, Blue State: Election Maps at The New York Times
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Matthew Ericson (New York Times). One of the mo
 st enduring symbols of the past several presidential elections has been 
 the red-state, blue-state map of America. Each election night, millions 
 of eyeballs have been tuned to news Web sites and television networks, w

SUMMARY:Putting a New Spin on Lidar Imaging
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Bruce Hall (Velodyne Acoustics, Inc.), Rick Yod
 er (Velodyne Lidar). Velodyne’s Lidar sensor approaches Lidar imaging in
  a whole new way.  Unlike traditional single laser sensors that provide 
 a trickle of data, the Velodyne sensor uses 64 lasers to provide a compa
 rable flood.  This session gives a brief background of Velodyne and show
 s its new sensor, called the HDL-64E, in action.

SUMMARY:Windows 7 – Location Awareness Made Easy
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Alec Berntson (Microsoft Corporation). When you
  create a location-aware application, ever notice how much of your time 
 and effort is spent focusing on where your application gets its location
  data? Windows 7 makes it easy to enable any application to answer the q
 uestion, “Where am I?”. This presentation will show you how Windows 7 wi
 ll enable the next big wave of location-aware applications.

SUMMARY:Mobile Reality
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Raven Zachary (raven.me), Mok Oh (Where Inc.), 
 Will Carter (Nodesnoop Labs), Ori Inbar (Ogmento), Anthony  Fassero (ear
 thmine, inc). Mobile devices with location-based services and always-on 
 data services are making it easier to bridge the virtual and physical wo
 rlds into a single, shared space. What was once a distant vision of augm
 ented reality is starting to take shape on a new class of smartphones, i
 ncluding the Apple iPhone and Google Android. This session covers today'
 s offerings that merge physical and virtual spaces.

SUMMARY:DIY City: An Operating System for Cities
DESCRIPTION:Presented by John Geraci (DIYcity). Our cities today are out
 dated models of inefficiency, consisting of centralized, top-down and no
 n-participatory services and infrastructures. The results are spiraling 
 city deficits, ballooning bureaucracy, and an inability to pay for basic
  services, paired with problems of wasted resources, scarcity and redund
 ancies.

SUMMARY:Where, When, Why, and How:  Directions in Machine Learning and R
 easoning about Location
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Eric Horvitz (Microsoft Research). Location is 
 central in the lives of people, and will play an increasingly important 
 role in context-sensitive services that consider the preferences, goals,
  and activities of people.  I will discuss the promise of machine learni
 ng and reasoning about location to deliver such services, touching on se

SUMMARY:Footstreams: Clickstreams for the Physical World
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jeff Holden (Pelago, Inc.). People vote with th
 eir feet and there is substantial information contained in human activit
 y in the real world.  Previously, that data was inaccessible, but thanks
  to LBS we can capture, in digital form, the places people go. This data
  set is the real-world analog of a clickstream on the Web; call it a “fo
 otstream.” Tapping the footstream will completely alter the mobile exper
 ience as we know it.
