I am also with RACES, Skywarn, NOAA Weather Spotter, Government Liaison/ESF-6 American Red Cross and MuttShack Animal Rescue & Response Team. Though I have no economic interest in Depiction, Inc., I would like to invite you to a webinar I will be presenting about it and its many very valuable roles in Amateur Radio operations. Depiction mapping software includes tools for resource location, volunteer tracking, credentialing, scenario prediction, repeater location/coverage, NOAA weather, and APRS data integration. I have used it during hurricanes Gustav and Ike, California wildfires, Midwest floods and tornados, and in Washington state during several winter disasters. I have detailed some of those experiences in a review of the product that can be read in the November 2009 edition of QST Magazine. I will also be describing them in a webinar that I will be presenting along with Depiction, Inc.'s Kim Buike next week, to which you and your club members are invited. The webinar will be offered twice, on Wednesday, October 21 at 1 PM EDT/10 AM PDT , and then on Saturday, October 24, at 12:30 PM EDT/8:30 AM PDT . During each of these webinars, I will describe how to: Geo-locate all physical assets and volunteers in ???depictions??? to track deployment locations, Integrate maps, elevation plots, weather data, ???fly over??? imagery, situation reports and any critical proprietary data into a single depiction display, ???Depict??? antenna line-of-site footprints to help determine geographic frequency allocation, Use Depiction???s ???Live reports??? communication feature to enhance awareness of volunteer movements, resource status, damage assessments, etc. during a disaster, I hope you are able to attend one of these webinars, and that you pass this invitation on to any members of your club or on "Nets" that may be interested.
