Philippines to host local Google Map Maker Summits -- HabagatCentral

Philippine Google Map Maker Summit 2012

Philippines will hold three local conferences about Google Map Maker this April 2012, after the successful Google Map Maker Workshop which was held in Makati City last March. The local Google Map Maker Summits will be held at the cities of Bacolod City, Baguio City, and General Santos City respectively.

The active community of mappers and moderators in the Philippines is the major reason that Google pushes through with its local summits, aiming at developing further the interactive map using the Google Map Maker. The summit also highlights the importance of Google Map Maker and Maps for businesses, information, LGU planning, disaster assessment and reduction, tourism, and a lot more. Speakers from Google India will grace the said events.

The Google Map Maker Summits this 2012 will be held on the following venues and dates (All summits open their registration at 8:30AM and promptly begins at 9AM). It is highly-recommended to bring a laptop if you can so you may participate in the hands-on session. Please click the images for more information and registration:
