Still not sure about these webinars, aside from very vague sales-y information, I'm not convinced that the signal-to-noise ratio is worth it.

Every one of these presentations starts with a tired message that "we've been doing things wrong" and "we've got to be more connected". And then invariably focuses on a few simplistic projects, which tend to be on the underwhelming side.

1) Spray
Using MAP3d queries and buffer analysis to theme maps and locate potential spray facilities.

2) Golf
Because we need new golf courses. More of the same analysis tools. But much more useful and much more in depth. For once the method of determining possible locations is better than dart at a board.

3) And one for San Francisco residents ... Coffee Shop
Overlay analysis and pivot charts. That was new.




OK. I take it back, because that was actually a very good example of what MAP 3D can do. I have the slides and I'll definitely download the webinar once it is up and I'll go to CADLearning and check out the MAP 3D training videos.
