USGIF encourages you to stay in the Official GEOINT Symposium Hotels. Rooms are selling out quickly, so don't delay. One advantage of staying in the official GEOINT 2010 hotels is that transportation will be provided from the official hotels to the convention center. By reserving these rooms you are not only immersing yourself in the center of the GEOINT Symposium activities and attendees, but you are also enabling USGIF to negotiate better rates for the future and pass along future savings to exhibitors and attendees.
