What if a presenter could tell their spatial story in just 5 minutes? They get 20 slides, and each slide lasts 15 seconds. That's Ignite Spatial.
Ignite Spatial
We’re very excited to announce that the next Ignite Spatial will be held in conjunction with FOSS4G, the conference which is all about free and open source software for anything geo-spatial.
Ignite Spatial 3 will take place at 5.30pm on the 21st of October, 2009 at a venue TBA. You can register now, and we’ll let you know when we find a home.
Ignite Spatial is free and is open to anyone with an interest in GIS, mapping or other geo-spatial activities. You don’t need to be an SSI member or FOSS4G attendee.
We’re pleased to announce the presenters for Ignite Spatial 2. Many thanks to the brave volunteers who have agreed to share their spatial stories!
Also, a reminder that you must register to attend Ignite Spatial 2 - the CBD Hotel will be checking names against the guest list.
Registration is free and is open to anyone who is interested in the spatial sciences. Tell your friends and colleagues to register early if they don’t want to misss out.
Following the success of the first event, we’re pleased to announce that Ignite Spatial is back!

Please register if you’d like to attend. Registration is free and is open to anyone with an interest in the spatial sciences.
What would you say if you had just 5 minutes to tell your spatial story? You get 20 slides, and each slide lasts for 15 seconds.
On the 12th of November 2008, over 100 curious people came to the first ever Ignite Spatial to watch 11 intrepid volunteers give it a go!
Networking
Ignite Spatial was also about giving you the opportunity to network with like-minded spatial people.

Ignite Presentations
Spatial Business Newsletter called Ignite Spatial “the best idea of the year” and said “we’ve been to lethargic all-day conferences with less information” than the short, sharp presentations at Ignite Spatial. Watch the videos from Ignite Spatial 1 and see if you agree!
