Hi,
This years State of the map Scotland is a slightly different affair than last
years due to a larger venue.
We are splitting both days into two, morning and afternoon. In the afternoon we
are requesting speakers from other GIS or professional organisations to come in
and speak about their work with maps. These talks do not have to be about
Openstreetmap or free data but it would be good if there was some connection.
This will allow us to use the conference as a meeting of minds between
volunteer mappers and professional groups. We have 16 30 minute slots available
in the two days and two conference rooms. This will be the formal side of the
conference, The mornings will be reserved for Openstreetmappers in the non
conference format.
Details of the Conference here

If anyone knows of any groups that would like to speak please let me know.
We are also looking for some small sponsorship to pay for Edinburgh University
Staff who are needed to let us in.
Cheers
Bob Kerr
