Title: Data Is the New Oil. Come Wildcat for Geospatial Crude
Presenter: John Hollingsworth
Abstract: Learn about the landscape of free spatial data sources available on the web and an explanation of how to access and consume them. This will start with public domain data available from US federal, state, and local sources. This session will also discuss a set of macros written by the presenter that scrape web map sites for data that is viewable/searchable but not published as complete datasets (e.g., property parcel data). The macros discussed will be available for download after the session.
