Booth is setup. Keynote address is going on now. Tom Patterson with National Park Service is discussing Remapping Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska. We are doing a series of scheduled demos throughout the day. They include our Field to Finish Solution which simplifies data collection, postprocessing, and importing into ArcGIS. We’ll also demo our new Building and Codes extension to ArcGIS called B&C Analyst. Permitting has never been easier. At 2pm today, I’ll be presenting in the vendor track. The topic is Enterprise GIS, which highlights “Connecting Communities with GIS”, this year’s TNGIC theme. If you can’t make it to TNGIC this year, we’ve learned that next year the event will be in Gatlinburg.

Our 2009 training schedule is now posted HERE. Better late than never, I guess. There are a few changes to the ESRI ArcGIS Training Curriculum. That was one of the reasons why it took a while to get this posted. The entire cirriculum has been revamped after a lot of feedback and significant changes to the ArcGIS software. GEO-Jobe instructors were required to be recertified by ESRI before being able to provide the training.
The most obvious change is in the naming of the courses. No more Intro I or Intro II. Now it is called ArcGIS Desktop I, II, and III. To learn more about the differences in the courses, ESRI has a neat little page where you can learn all about it. There is even a wizard to determine which class you should take.

The City of Jackson, TN is the latest GEO-Jobe GIS Geopowered site to go live. This new site is part of a bigger project GEO-Jobe is involved in with Jackson to develop an Enterprise GIS. Utilizing ESRI ArcGIS server technology, several city agencies, including planning and police, will begin sharing data between eachother and with Madison County agencies, like the Assessor’s office. One of the big goals of this project is to reduce costs by eliminating data duplication. Many times cities and counties have data that could be shared, but are limited by connectivity or technology. GEO-Jobe is helping Jackson and Madison County remain current while making the best use of tax-payer dollars. With budgets being reduced in nearly every community in the US, using tax dollars wisely is at the forefront many city leaders minds.
Please visit the City of Jackson Geopowered site and take it for a spin.

We ended our weeklong trip across Tennessee in Jackson last Friday. It seemed like as the week progressed, our demo got a little better. We’ll be doing them again down the road so keep you eyes on the lookout.
Here are some pictures from the week. I think I need a new camera phone. These pictures are not great.
