July's Maptime will be led by special guest and neighbor to the north, Bill Morris (https://twitter.com/vtcraghead). For those of you loyal to our schedule, please note that the meetup is a week later than usual this month!
Interactive maps have been flourishing on the web for a decade now, but the stuff we think of as "geoprocessing" - distance calculations, proximity tests, area overlaps - have mostly occurred on servers or offline entirely. Join us and learn how to throw off those server-side shackles with turf.js (http://turfjs.org/), the javascript geoprocessing engine, built for the nuts and bolts of geography on the web. We'll look at a few examples of turf in action behind the scenes of applications, and as a straight-up GIS-in-the-browser; bring a laptop to follow along if you like.
Casual cartographers, GIS analysts, and curious developers are all welcome!
