Open Source GIS short course coming for Seattle

Seattle consultant Karsten Vennemann is presenting a 3 day course on Interoperable Web GIS Solutions with Open Source Software November 19-21.

Karsten has more of a cartographic bent than most GIS specialists out there. I expect this class will go beyond just manipulating the software and help you make beautiful products. If you’ve been curious about the tools available from the open source world, or are tired of paying the ESRI tax, this course looks like a good value.
