There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

The Georgia Geospatial Conference of 2014 will be held October 6th-8th at the Classic Center in downtown Athens. Participants are welcome from federal, state, local governments; academic; private sector; non-profit and international organizations.
If you are a practitioner, student, or otherwise interested, in the fields of geographic information systems or surveying, please make plans to attend the largest geospatial conference in Georgia. For three days, you will have the chance to network with peers, share projects and ideas, and learn.
On October 6th, there will be pre-conference workshops. On October 7th and 8th, you will hear from leaders in the GIS and surveying fields with practitioners sharing papers and presentations. On Tuesday afternoon, we have a session devoted to future leaders in the GIS field: students. That night we will also host a social in Downtown Athens.
