I posted a couple of pictures on day 1 from the stand. I’d also like to mention the Inspiration hub on the day before the conference. We had all the kit on show and it was really well attended. We had a lot of interest in Stratus Connect and a couple of people had dropped in just for the day to see us, so many thanks for taking the time to do so. The Oracle Spatial SIG was also running at the same time and a quick thanks to them for working with us to share delegates! Also you might have noticed we had some interesting coloured polo shirts – rather unbelivably one of the customers asked if we had any spare (they probably have some DIY projects or garnedning in mind)
Competition Time
Rob Salmond put together the Stratus demo for the competition. As mentioned in an earlier post it was a “pin the tail on the map” competition with the prize going to the closest guess. It thought it was for the whole of the UK, but the guess needed to be within a bounding box of the midlands. A neat addition was that the system was tied into our e-messaging software and each entrant was SMS’d a personal thank you for entering.

We announced the winner on day 2 & congratulations to the Paul Horton from Bristol City Council who guessed to within 7 miles of the mystery point.

I went camping about 3 miles from the secret location this weekend. Spooky. Didn’t help though, I was miles off!
