The Esri Oceans Summit is the first Esri-hosted event in Redlands dedicated to the oceans. This high-level strategy meeting will identify barriers to the use of GIS in ocean science and management, along with associated functional requirements. It will focus on removing those barriers via technical solutions in multidimensional and sensor data formats and in tools, workflows, and computing platforms. It will also address issues of accuracy and uncertainty.
This summit is by invitation only to intermediate and advanced ocean GIS analysts and developers from around the world. Attendees will be asked to submit a short (1–2 page) position paper before the summit, including a summary of the ocean GIS activities of their lab, campus, or organization.
