More than 8000 GIS specialists from around the world met in San Diego for the annual GIS users conference. The conference was held from July 27-31 at the San Diego Convention Center.

Outside of the Exhibition Hall, on the main floor.

Part of the conference included a poster session to showcase geographic information system (GIS) applications. The La Costa Canyon High School poster focused on a year long study of ecological succession after the 1976 Harmony Grove fire. The poster consisted of a series of maps displaying species distribution and an analysis of chemical testing of the burn site. All data was student generated. These maps will serve as a baseline comparison for this longitudinal study.
