I’ve been able to coordinate being home and the Portland (Oregon) SQL Server user group’s meeting schedule, so next week I’ll be speaking “at home” for a change. I’m giving a talk on one of my favorite features for developers in SQL Server 2008, Spatial Data support. Because it’s relatively common these days to see GPS not only in cars but also in “carry along” devices, cell phones, cameras, and other hi-tech toys I don’t personally possess, I called this talk “SQL Server spatial data for the masses”. If you’re at all interested in SQL Server or storing, processing, and visualizing spatial data and databases, I’ll see you there.<\/P>
