RSVP: http://www.meetup.com/MaptimeLA/events/219299344/ Join us at open data night where we will have two guest speakers discussing the topic of Open Data. We will be joined by Phillip Leclair, Chief Information Officer from the City of Pasadena and Tim Tierney from Junar.com “Pasadena recently was named as one of the ‘Top Ten’ digital cities in the nation by The Center for Digital Government. This was the first time Pasadena has been recognized as a technologically progressive and innovative city” – Source Tim will do an overview on the open data proposition, list the major vendors in the space, and describe how these players compete/cooperate with GIS vendors. Then we will have a discussion on the open-question on where the exact line between GIS and open data lies.
