Open Positions at OpenGeo: Support Analyst – We seek the true ZenDesk Master. We’re ready to build out our support team with someone wicked smart and loves troubleshooting, educating, and closing tickets. Senior Inside Sales Manager – The biggest barrier to our sales growth is sales capacity. Nice problem to have…that means this is a great career opportunity for a seasoned inside salesperson. A B C. Sales Account Manager – Our current (and future!) federal clients are looking for the freedom of open source, and our account managers are the people who help them find it. Software Developer – We’re looking for the sort of person you want to sprint with, who writes the sort of code that you like to extend and support. Java, JavaScript, Python, Bash..these are a few of your favorite things. (Bonus points for Scala, Clojure, and Haskell…) QA Engineer – Like brushing your teeth, good development practices start at home. We want to hire an additional QA Engineer to keep our releases shiny. This person should enjoy breaking things in organized and exploratory ways. Recruitment Associate – The list above is only going to get longer. So we need a top-notch person to be an ambassador for OpenGeo in a big way. This is the lucky person that helps other people find jobs (at OpenGeo!) that they’ll love.

in the Lower Willamette: Implications for Restoring the River Tuesday, October 16th Noon to 1:00 pm Portland Building Auditorium 1120 SW Fifth Ave., 2nd Floor Portland, OR 97204 Documenting historical conditions is a critical step in restoring a river. While future habitats will never be restored fully to the quality of those from centuries past, knowing a river’s natural tendencies—and understanding the types and scale of lost habitat functions—is vital to saving or re-growing smaller, more managed habitats that still deliver valuable ecological function. Restoring a river running through an urban area like Portland is not an attempt to create the best habitat in the Columbia Basin—but Portland’s habitats need to improve until they provide a gateway, not a barrier; and a passageway, not a bottleneck. Our area cannot be the basin's most degraded habitat at one of its must critical landscape junctures. Reducing the severity of limiting factors and improving local habitats and the landscape linkages they provide to regional fish and wildlife will be Portland's greatest contribution to regional recovery efforts. Join Chris Prescott from Portland’s Bureau of Environmental Services as he describes how our understanding of key changes in the Lower Willamette’s habitat and hydrology is informing restoration in this ecologically unique and economically vital stretch of the river.

The China Historical GIS and the Chinese Biographical Database: Mapping Places and People
Peter K. Bol Charles H. Carswell Professor of East Asian Languages and Civilizations and Director of the Center for Geographic Analysis, Harvard University Friday, Oct.26 12-2 pm Cramer Hall 494 Portland State University How can GIS help ask and answer historical questions? How can we analyze vast amounts of data about people in the past? Peter Bol will introduce two major projects based at Harvard University that address these questions for the study of Chinese history, and show how geographical and biographical databases can be used together to enrich and expand our understanding of the past. Next Saturday (10/13) there will be a two hour, hands on workshop on OpenStreetMap, the free and open community map of the world. It will describe the project, and then walk through how to use OpenStreetMap map data, edit it, and contribute to the data set. More details, an agenda, and sign up are here: http://hello-osm.eventbrite.com.
This workshop - while free and open to the public - is part of OpenStreetMap's State of the Map conference. Everyone attending the workshop is also invited to sit in on the conference keynotes, and to stick around after for lunch and to mingle. It will be a great opportunity to learn hands on skills on how to use OpenStreetMap and also meet folks in the larger community in town for the conference.
