Description:
MAGIC 2008 represents 20 Years of MAGIC! GIS covers such a broad range of subjects, applications and types of people that use it, that developing a conference program that meets everyone’s needs is a challenging task. Even more challenging is an attendee trying to figure out exactly which sessions or topics will be most interesting and helpful. MAGIC 2008 is intended to focus the content of the presentation options into a program specifically geared to each attendee’s needs. Sign Up for Announcements! The 2008 Symposium will be held at the Westin Crown Center April 20 - 24, 2008 in Kansas City, Missouri. Click here for more hotel information. Click here for conference fee information.
