We are excited to highlight the proposed lightning talks for Geo4LibCamp
 2024!

We have lightning talks proposed on the following topics:

   - Open-Source Georeferencing and Curating with Allmaps
   - GeoBlacklight Allmaps Plugin
   - Enhancing Access to Digital Aerial Photography at the University of
   Wisconsin-Madison
   - The UC approach: Single code base, separate deployments
   - What is the National Geospatial Advisory Committee?
   - Using Text Recognition to Georeference Aerial Photos?
   - Ephemeral Geospatial Data: An Impending Dark Age
   - Using Aardvark to Drive Public Health Data Discovery
   - GeoServer and You: Or how I learned to stop worrying and ask Eliot to
   fix our ‘talk to GeoServer’ problems

In addition to the lightning talks, there will be two workshop offerings:

GeoBlacklight for Beginners & Advanced GeoBlacklight: Voyaging Beyond Core

   - An introduction to the GeoBlacklight software with guided techniques
   for installation and customization.

Medley of Metadata Workflows

   - Creating geospatial metadata for GeoBlacklight using a variety of
   techniques from manual cataloging to batch harvesting to python scripting.

Geo4LibCamp is a hands-on meeting for anyone interested in how libraries
can manage and provide access to geospatial resources. This event is often
attended by map librarians, metadata specialists, application developers,
geospatial professionals, and educators. The main focus is to share
best-practices, solve common problems, and address technical issues with
integrating geospatial data into a repository and associated services. For
the purposes of the camp, we broadly define geospatial data from
scanned maps and aerial photography to highly structured shapefiles.

Please see the Geo4LibCamp website <https://geo4libcamp.org/> for venue
information <https://geo4libcamp.org/2024/>, a tentative agenda
<https://geo4libcamp.org/2024/agenda-2024/>, and more!

We hope to see you there!
