IGUC invites mapping and GIS professionals to submit abstracts for GeoSpatial World 2003 technical presentations that range from implementation processes to project results, from organizational issues to lessons learned along the way. The deadline for abstract submission is November 1, 2002.

Abstracts should deal with real-world applications of Intergraph Mapping and GIS Solutions' GIS and mapping software for geospatial infrastructure management, land information management, and map production and development.
