OpenTopography at 2014 AGU Meeting

Connect with OpenTopography at the 2014 American Geophysical Union meeting in San Francisco:

Visit our booth! OpenTopography will be in booth #2516 on "NSF Street" in the exhibit hall. The booth is shared with the National Center for Laser Mapping (NCALM). Our booth is staffed by OpenTopography staff and community members and is a great chance to ask questions, provide feedback, or discuss other topics.

This year we'll be holding OpenTopography Office Hours - a chance for OpenTopography users and community to ask specific questions on a topic of interest by connecting with the correct OpenTopography team member. Here are topics and staff who will be in the booth and able to discuss these topics:
