Connect and learn with CARTO in September

At CARTO, we have a deep passion for sharing knowledge and discovering new insights through spatial analysis and visualization. With the release of our CARTO Builder and the ever deepening work of our team, we’re excited to share with the world some of the game-changing innovations we’re bringing to the table.

September is no exception, and has become our most active month for events and conferences since our big announcements earlier this year. From Brussels Belgium, to New York City and beyond, don’t miss the chance to grab us for a demo or to talk data analysis over a beer – We’re positive you’ll be as excited as we are!

Boston Data Festival

We love Boston. We love it so much it’s hard for us to stay away! This year, ODSC’s Boston Data Festival, taking place September 22-24th, is set to be an epic ride of innovations in data science and analysis. Our very own Tyler Bird will be headed to Beantown to talk data visualization, give a presentation on spatial analysis, and partake in an epic 3 days of data-goodness. Keep an eye out for the talk schedule and come visit our booth!

State of the Map 2016

This year’s State of the Map, taking place September 23-25 in Brussels Belgium, is set to be the biggest OpenStreetMap (OSM) community event to date.

At CARTO, we’re huge fans and contributors to OSM, and this year, our partnership with Mapzen has taken our love for OpenStreetMap to new heights. Don’t miss Jorge Sanz’s talk titled SQL all the things: exposing OSM data services to PostGreSQL users, where he’ll be talking about our Open Source Postgres extension to provide a SQL interface for Location Data Services with Mapzen.

Jaak Laineste, our Head of Mobile will also be around, making it a great opporutnity to learn about our Mobile SDK, services, and offline mapping. Also, don’t forget to ask him about his cool CARTO SDK map on a watch.

Transportation Camp NYC

Our favorite un-conference for transportation innovation comes to CARTO’s home-base in New York City September 24th! Don’t miss the chance to talk location intelligence with our NYC and transportation guru Jeff Ferzoco. We’ve been quite busy tapping into the power of the CARTO Builder to create fast insight like never before. Not to be missed!

Strata + Hadoop World

Being the largest conference for data science and analysis in the world, Strata + Hadoop World in New York City is sure to be an enriching experience into the leading edge of technology and data. Stuart Lynn’s talk, Designing a location intelligence platform for everyone by integrating data, analysis, and cartography, on geospatial statistical methods and machine learning in building location intelligence tools, is not to be missed! In addition, you can check out yours truly’s presentation in the Solutions Theatre, where we’ll dive deep into understanding how CARTO’s ecosystem works to put powerful analysis at the fingertips of interdisciplinary professionals. Come visit us at booth #655 to get the scoop as we shake things up with analysis-focused demos, conversations, and possibly a special surprise ;)

Other opportunities to connect

As always, CARTO is committed to many other events around our local and international communities. If you miss us at the conferences above, we’ll also be sponsoring and attending the Rider’s Alliance Gala event to futher support and grow our transportation communities.
