Members from the Farallon team will be attending or presenting at these upcoming GIS and Location Technology events and seminars.
Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial Professionals - North America 2013 May 22–24, 2013 Marriott City Center, Minneapolis, MN
Dennis Wuthrich, CEO of Farallon, will be attending and is available for meetings.
Presentations include: 1) GIS at California State Emergency Management Agency Diane Vaughn, CALEMA GIS Coordinator Status and direction of GIS at CALEMA. 2) GIS for Volunteers: Mapping support for Citizen Emergency Response Teams (CERT). We will have two presenters for this session Don Prosnitz, Volunteer Walnut Creek CERT Don Prosnitz is not a GIS professional. He has long experience working on national counter-terrorism response, was the Chief Science and Technology Advisor to the Attorney General and is an active member of the City of Walnut Creek's CERT organization. Walnut Creek CERT is divided up into 7 CERT response areas, each with its own Incident Command Staff and deployable survey and SAR ( search and rescue) teams. He will describe the needs of the Walnut Creek CERT organization for GIS support and the public-private partnership consisting of City GIS experts, volunteer GIS professionals and amateur "map makers" that is not only preparing maps for the Walnut Creek CERT but also providing ground truth for the City of Walnut Creek. He will describe some of the unusual requirements for GIS support to a large, diverse volunteer organization. Khin Chin, Associate Management Analyst City of Berkeley CERT program mapping experiences 3) GIS Corps, SAR and MapSAR Presentation Dave Hanson, GISP This presentation at BAAMA covers a GIS Corps project to assist in the use of GIS for wildland search and rescue (SAR). This GIS Corps project for California began with a call for volunteers in November 2012. It now involves about nine volunteers located in both northern and Southern California. The project is in the initial stages with 3 primary objectives. * Training for SAR volunteers in the use of GIS and MapSAR as a tool for responding to an incident * Integrating GIS volunteers with SAR teams, * Assisting in further development of the MapSAR tool The presentation will include a brief demonstration of the MapSAR interface. MapSAR is a free package for use with ArcGIS Desktop version 10.1
CIPA’s bi-annual congress provides a platform for the exchange of ideas, best practices as well as scientific research papers.

This presentation reviews using FME Dynamic Workspaces to spatially visualize the output from Viador, a non-spatial Business Intelligence (BI) application. By creating an FME workspace utilizing dynamic readers and writers, as well as a published parameters to pass in data specific variables at runtime, the FME workspace was able to read in any query results produced by the BI application and join the appropriate column with a spatial data layer pulled from a spatial database.
Smart phones and tablets offer people collecting data in the field a compelling alternative to traditional GPS devices and GIS software. "Apps" built specifically for familiar platforms like smart phones and tablets enable super easy and super efficient data collection field work. This presentation showcases the solutions that Farallon has developed for our clients to make spatial data collection as simple as using a typical Iphone App, and we will discuss the interplay of technologies used to craft those solutions - including Postgis, ArcGIS Server, FME Server, and Android OS.
This presentation from CaGIS 2010 explores a centrally available, authoritative address system as a critical tool to streamline the business of government and corporations. It covers the features of this system including a Master Address Database for managing addresses, their spatial relationships with parcels, streets, apartments, units and lineage requirements. The entire system is built on Open Source software.
This presentation at CalGIS 2007 explores how Google Maps, Google Earth, MS Virtual Earth and other emerging technologies can be integrated with traditional GIS tools such as geodatabases and ArcGIS server to deliver useful "enterprise mashups" to to dramatically improve the dissemination of GIS data and analyses to people while significantly reducing the cost of deploying and maintaining GIS.
This presentation at CalGIS 2007 explores innovative strategies and technologies that will enhance the value of investment in GIS, including decentralized databases and non-traditional visualization tools.
This presentation to the MISAC Northern California Chapter Meeting Nov 2007 discusses how organizations can deploy GIS solutions that leverage spatially aware relational database management systems like Oracle Express, free SOA-based mapping API's like Google Maps and Google Earth, and open source software like Autodesk Mapguide to manage data, integrate systems, and deliver compelling geospatial applications for a fraction of the cost of traditional GIS.
This presentation to the July 2006 BAAMA meeting discusses using Oracle Express, web services, JSON and Google Maps API to create a sophisticated decison support solution for hazard abatement anaylysis.
This presentation to the Location Intelligence Conference April 2006 discusses using Oracle 10g Spatial for a series of pre-processing services and custom data structures for the intensive large volume geoprocessing for Quality Planning Corporation ("QPC"), a risk managment insurance company.
This presentation to the Oracle Spatial User's Conference in April 2006 discusses usage scenarios of Oracle Spatial for logisitics including: Network Data Models (NDM) to generate paths based on network, costs, and constraints; Linear Referencing Systems (LRS) to support along-path distance determination, drive times and situational awareness (i.e., more than just dynamic segmentation); and using an Application Server Mapviewer to generate dynamic data-driven maps for inclusion into business applications.
This overview whitepaper for the County of San Mateo Public Works Department highlights their work with Farallon Geographics to produce an automated, user-intuitive integration process between their Hansen asset management system and the County's enterprise-level GIS. The Oracle Spatial supported solution allows for automatic data updates, ensuring system synchronization and minimizing the risks associated with error-prone human tabular data entry.
