What's New Louisiana

Well this past Wednesday I had the opportunity to travel to Louisiana to a user group meeting hosted by LAGIC, ESRI, and SCAUG. In this "What's New In ArcGIS 10" session the group was able to hear first hand from Pam the ESRI rep. what exactly they could look forward to in 10. Many of the users were well aware of the functions that 10 allows and some picked up a few new tricks as well. With 32 attendees representing various sectors of La. I can see that interest is definitely there. I was able to meet many new people and hope to be able to provide as many resources as possible to them.

On a side note.... the food, as always in La. is awesome, Johnny Brown suggested this little grill restaurant with home cooking and the Wednesday special was chicken fried steak.... yummm. Back on point, Louisiana is full of GIS professionals that will without a doubt, bring an array of knowledge to the SCAUG family. I intend on helping in any way possible to provide a bridge for them to get the most out of SCAUG. I can't wait to see what the future holds for my new friends in La. Until next time this is Shane Diaz (SCAUG Louisiana Rep.) Come on Don......bring some rain PLEASE!
