Proposed by Igal Koshevoy. (Photo by Reid Beels) This fun session was part presentation, part group discussion, and part show-and-tell. The moderator presented some maps that showcased funny, frightening, niche and bizarre uses of cartography. The rest of the time was spent by the group discussing these and sharing additional strange maps suggested by the session participants. text/html 2009-10-05T19:59:12-07:00 http://www.wherecamppdx.org/wiki/2009/calagator?rev=1254797952&do=diff " " WhereCampPDX 2009 Sessions" " Discuss proposed changes to Calagator (an open source community calendar) so it can support content in multiple regions properly, so one website could effectively offer events in any area.

Getting lost in the city is a fun way to gain new perspectives on where and how we live*. Join us Sunday for a fun self-lead excursion around Portland. A bare bones topographic map and clever clues will lead you around town on a scenic journey. Plan on committing 2 to 3 hours for this activity. It is recommended to team up in groups of 2 to 4. text/html 2009-10-06T21:38:16-07:00 http://www.wherecamppdx.org/wiki/2009/map_standards?rev=1254890296&do=diff Was: Cartographic Standards. This session used the International Standards for Orienteering Mapping as a jumping off point for discussing mapping standards and how or why they are useful. In looking at a variety of printed maps, we discussed the interesting adherence to the standards as well as the subtleties in the styles. It's obvious that both professionals and armchair cartographers are capable of creating works of art. text/html 2009-10-06T21:34:08-07:00 http://www.wherecamppdx.org/wiki/2009/map_standards_-_who_needs_them_anyway?rev=1254890048&do=diff In looking at a variety of printed maps, we discussed the interesting adherence to the standards as well as the subtleties in the styles. It's obvious that both professionals and armchair cartographers are capable of creating works of art. However, it was also noted that for all of the subtleties within each map, there are obvious styles that lead to influence and interpretation. text/html 2009-09-29T02:10:00-07:00 http://www.wherecamppdx.org/wiki/2009/places_to_stay?rev=1254215400&do=diff There are many motels/hotels in the area, but you might consider residential lodging too.
