Preparing for the Honolulu SWARS Workshop

Hey, friends. The workshop is coming up soon next week. I am very excited and really looking forward to seeing you all again. You have done a lot of great work so far. Let’s work together and get the SWARS thing done next week, sort of. )

To help me better prepare for the workshop and make more effiicent use of this opportunity, I’d like to hear from you on thoughts and ideas for the workshop. Are there any specific questions and issues you want to have addressed? Are there any specific techniques or tools you want to learn in ArcGIS? Do you have any other GIS related questions at all?

Well, inspired by our friend Mr. Ron Canarrela’s wonderful work with the latest web/multimedia technology, I’m starting this blog just for our island projects. This should provide a better platform for improving communications.

To make clear, this is more of a personal effort, thus nothing here should be seen as official opinion from the USDA Forest Service or my direct employer GDIT. Hey, but on the other hand, we can keep it loose and express more freely, just like chats between friends.

All and any comments and ideas and questions are welcomed!
