iCal export-  NSGIC Mid-Year in Annapolis, MD   
-  All Hands on Deck For the Nation 
-  Intro to Metadata - TX Association of Regional Councils   
-  The workshop will provide course material on the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) standardized metadata profile - Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM) and the proposed Texas Geospatial Data Profile (TX-GDP). The workshop will also cover information on other metadata standards, software tools such as the Texas Metadata Editor (TX-ME) and profile extensions, and about the existing metadata resource network for the creation, development and dissemination of metadata in conjunction with the Geospatial One-Stop program.  
-  Presentation on National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy  Mar 17, 2006 from                             12:00 PM to                             02:00 PM 
-  for Missoula (MT) GIS Coffee Talk and Montana GPS Users Group - via teleconference 
-  Developing Geospatial Metadata Workshop   
-  The goals of the workshop are: 1) to prepare participants to create Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) compliant metadata to document their geospatial data 2) to assist participants to understand and use the information in the Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata and 3) to encourage and facilitate geospatial data cataloging efforts in support of geospatial data discovery and data sharing activities. 
-  GITA Annual Conference 2006   
-  Tampa Convention Center April 23-26 
-  Train the Metadata Trainer    
-  Remember that metadata workshop you took from NBII sometime in the last year or so? What an awesome topic, right? Well, here's your opportunity to continue having fun with metadata -- attend the NBII Metadata Train the Trainer Workshop!! Learn how to effectively teach your peers and colleagues who may not have been able to attend a workshop about how fun it is to create metadata and/or be able to effectively explain to your management team why metadata is such an important element in preserving all that great research data!  
-  Geospatial Workshops   
-  The ISO TC211 Outreach Committee in cooperation with the INCITS L1 Committee is pleased to offer Workshops on two topics of critical importance to geospatial interoperability. The Workshops are prior to the start of the 22nd Plenary Meeting of ISO TC211 and are free to the attendees. We ask that you register by May 15, 2006 with John Moeller of the INCITS L1 Committee (john.moeller@ngc.com) 
-  NJ Geospatial Metadata Training   
-  A one-day class that includes a metadata writing overview plus hands-on use of ESRI's ArcCatalog software, followed the next afternoon by a workshop where students can create metadata records from their own data sets or map files. 
-  FGDC Steering Committee Meeting  Jun 19, 2006 from                             12:00 PM to                             02:00 PM—                             American Institute of Architects Boardroom, 1735 New York Ave, NW, Washington, DC,                         
-  Spatial Metadata and Clearinghouse Training: “Train the Trainers” Workshop   
-  The workshop will review the FGDC and ISO Metadata Content Standards, demonstrate a variety of tools used for metadata creation and management and provide participants with numerous metadata training resources. We will also share with participants examples of creating an agency-wide metadata program from our work with the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

-  Arkansas Metadata Training   
-  Part 1: Morning session is designed to provide guidance on creating and publishing metadata. Part 2: We are all really busy which usually leads to not doing metadata. The afternoon session is designed to give you a chance to get out of the office, away from the phone, and complete that one nagging task you have been putting off; METADATA!!!! AGIO staff will be available to answer questions as you work on documenting your datasets. A limited number of laptops will be available.Date: July 18, 2006--- Second class on July 19, 2006 (Due to demand)Location: AGIO- 124 West Capitol, Suite 990 Little RockAgenda:9:30 - 10:30: Learning how to create metadata within ArcCatalog10:30- 10:45: Break10:45- 11:30: Relationship between metadata and GeoStor search, find, and discover (tips and tricks to make sure your data is found)11:30-  1:30: Lunch1:30  -  4:30: Create your metadata.

-  NSGIC 2006 Annual Conference   
-  NBII Introduction to Metadata   
-  Metadata records help preserve the usefulness of data over time by detailing methods for data collection and data set creation. These standardized records greatly minimize duplication of effort in the collection of expensive digital data, and foster sharing of digital data resources through Clearinghouses and websites. This 1 1⁄2 day workshop provides an introduction to the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata and the NBII Biological Data Profile, as well as metadata development tools, strategies for production, and clearinghouses. The Biological Profile encompasses the entire geospatial metadata standard and includes additional elements to describe taxonomy, methods, and analytical tools (such as models). Demonstrations and hands-on practice producing documentation for a sample data set will be done using Metavist software.
