Tomorrow (November 28th at 6 PM) is ACM's Nerd Cultural Dinner at Case. The dinner is located in Thwing Ballroom and you should probably reserve a ticket by e-mailing acm-officers@case.edu.

After dinner is served, there will be several presentations. The first (at 6:30 PM) is by yours truly and is about Geocoding at Case. They gave me 15 minutes to talk, and I'll be following this approximate outline:

Geocoding at Case

  • What is geocoding?
  • Why is it useful?
  • Using the Case geocoder web service
  • A simple example
  • Development details
    • Location finding: Case Wiki, Google Maps, ...
    • Location parsing: Matching buildings, areas, addresses, ...
  • How you can contribute to its development and improvement

Hope to see you there!
