Developers / Developers Conference 2005 /

Agenda

This one-day event will feature a mix of short presentations, panel discussions, in-depth technical topics and forward-looking exposés on the trends in technology and market dynamics for location-based services. For part of the day, attendees will choose between introductory concepts and tutorials on deCarta’s newest products and features, or more advanced topics on some of the most pressing issues facing LBS application developers today.

The conference will end in a fun and relaxed atmosphere with an evening reception and mixer event right by SBC Park’s baseball field and the San Francisco Giants dugout. Guests and attendees will have access to batting cages where they will be able to ‘swing for the fences’ like the pros.
