Hi Folks,
Just to make you aware of the Followup Code Sprint after the FOSS4G
You do not have to be signed up for the conference and the cost is Free.


https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/foss4g-na-2016-code-sprint-unconference-tickets-24264853831

Starts 10:00 AM Friday May 6th, ends 5:00PM Saturday, May 7th


There is also a post-conference tour of the Open Source Geospatial Lab  I
do not think you have to be registered for the conference to attend this
either.( not 100% sure, since I have not registered for it)

Tour is 10 AM Friday May 6th.

In the Lab tour , you will see the tangible GIS system ,
https://geospatial.ncsu.edu/osgeorel/tangible-landscape.html . All you need
is a computer running GRASS GIS ( Linux and OSX are the primary support
platforms) , a Kinect scanner, a projector, and a landscape that has been
3D printed with some plastic play sand.  ( I was thinking that this might
be a good presentation for a future  trilug meeting)
