++Special Notice: GIS '09 - Transforming Public Services
- The Market Leading Geographical Information Systems Event
For The Public Sector
- 19 May 2009, Mayfair Conference Centre, London.
http://www.headstar-events.com/GIS09/ .

Councils, central government bodies and other public services are all
increasingly using postcode-based information, searchable maps,
'find my nearest', Google maps and other location-based tools to
enhance their electronic services to the public.

GIS'09 will enable managers from across the public sector to share
best practice on the collection, management and use of geospatial data
and hear about the latest innovations from companies offering
solutions to the sector.

Now in its fourth year, Headstar's flagship GIS event coincides with
the implementation of the European INSPIRE Directive which
provides a legislative framework that promotes best practice with
respect to geographical data sharing, both in relation to data standards
and policy.
