Are these two conferences different in a meaningful way? I assume the latter will only deal with ESRI product applications. Is there a need for the latter in light of the former? Any comments greatly appreciated. We are debating about going to the ESRI version and abstracts are due tomorrow, 6/29. -Rusty Rusty Scalf, GIS Specialist Contractor to the California Dept of Health Services 1515 Clay St. suite 1700 Oakland, CA 94612 510-622-4520 rscalf@dhs.ca.gov .
