Welcome to the 2014 GIS/CAMA Technologies ConferenceThis year’s theme, “Preparing for What’s Next,” is about anticipating technologies that provide both present-day and future solutions. The GIS/CAMA Technologies Conference is the place to learn about these solutions. The planning committee has assembled an excellent program that will benefit GIS and assessment professionals. The exhibit hall is also an important resource for new and emerging technologies.Participation in this conference is a fantastic networking opportunity. Take advantage of the time to talk with fellow professionals who share similar experiences and challenges. There are many things to learn when striking up conver-sations in breakout sessions, during breaks, and at scheduled receptions. Make sure to collect contact information, revisit conversations, and reach out to new colleagues for advice and rec-ommendations once you’re back home. We hope the conference prepares you for “what’s next” in emerging technologies.

Strategic planning is a vital tool for all geospa-tial programs, at any stage of development. An effective strategic plan is crucial to ensuring that a GIS program gets started right. As a GIS pro-gram matures, strategic planning methods are important tools for program management, pro-gram review, responding to change, and solving problems. An effective strategic plan will help you win program approval and funding, ensure that program goals and return on investment

are achieved, and keep a program on track in a changing environment.This course teaches strategic planning meth-ods and tools in the context of developing and managing a GIS program. Participants will learn how to successfully select and apply appropriate methods for a variety of situations.Instructor:Allen Ibaugh, AICP, GISP, Data Transfer Solutions, Orlando, FL

After a brief summary of the demands and chal-lenges, this session will be a town meeting and facilitated discussion of what it all means for the assessor and GIS staff, with an emphasis on how to survive these higher expectations in an era of austerity and rapid technical change.Panelists: Jeff Williams, Michael Prestridge, Mark Monacelli, Brent Jones, Robert McGee, and a mystery guest to be determined.

Location, Location, Location! We can all agree that location is a driving force in real estate sales, but harnessing this force through GIS analysis can be technical, challeng-ing, and time-consuming. GIS models have been developed that create automated neighborhood shape files to establish distinct boundaries re-quiring minimal manual corrections. A statisti-cally-driven valuation approach uses the parcel centroid coordinates to mitigate many of the eq-uity problems assessors’ face.
