+** Venue 3 is the main Auditorium. Desks can be fitted for a small cost and power supplied. WiFi access to internet is available. This would be a workshop where attendess supplied own notebook computers, for it would have to be rapidly disassembled afterwards in prep for Opening Plenary.

 ** With only two (maybe three venues) it is tricky - perhaps into 1) Desktop GIS and Analysis, 2) Internet GIS
