Says Chuck Cmeyla, ESRI's public works industry manager, "I am always excited about this particular convention. It is the one event where many of the public works executives assemble, and in our GIS Pavilion, they can get their questions answered by leaders in the GIS community. This year is particularly important because we will be demonstrating how GIS can be used for tracking stimulus money and to help provide both transparency and accountability in managing infrastructure projects."
