The October Geo DC meetup is tonight at 7:00 pm at Stetson’s. There will be one 15 minute presentation on the geographical history of beer from Joy Adams, a senior researcher with the Association of American Geographers. As usual, there will be a lot of time before and after the presentation to talk with other folks interested in mapping, data visualizations, GIS, and geo over drinks.

Next month the meetup will be back to the usual format of several short presentations, looking at how maps are used in the government, to look at NGOs work across the world, and visualize Census data in fast, meaningful ways.

For more details on the Geo DC meetup check out the meetup page, and join the group to get regular updates about these and related events. Hope to see you tonight!
