description nil → IEEE Oregon Section Power & Energy Society Chapter Meeting Subject: BPA Large Wind Integration Challenges and Solutions for Transmission Operations/System Reliability Speakers: Mr. Bart McManus and Mr. Scott Simons Time/Date : September 21, 2010 - 12:30 to 1:30 PM Location: Conference Room A&B - Third floor of 700 NE Multnomah Blvd - Portland, Oregon Summary: BPA has experienced a large amount of wind integration over the past three years, growing from 1,000 MW in late 2007 to over 3,000 MW current installed wind capacity. In order to effectively manage this amount of wind in the BPA Balancing Authority Area, methods had to be created to calculate the total reserve needed for current and future wind penetration levels, including trying to accurately forecast the estimated output of future wind projects. Once the needed reserve was calculated, it was found that it would be difficult for BPA to manage this level of wind so multiple initiatives were created to mitigate the issues brought by large scale wind in the BPA Balancing Authority Area. Speakers: Bart McManus has been at BPA for 16 years. He is the wind integration lead for BPA Transmission Operations. Scott Simons has been at BPA for 28 years. He has served as an applications developer, project manager, and has led the transmission scheduling organization. Location: The Portland chapter of PES meetings will be held every third Tuesday of the month. These Meetings will be held at the Lloyd 700 Building, 700 NE Multnomah Boulevard, third floor meeting room A&B. Meetings will start at 12:30 PM and will last for one hour. Also, attending these meetings can be used as equivalent to one PDH for members who need to keep up their professional engineering licenses. You may go to http://www.ieee-or.org/ site and select events for future PES meeting notices.

There are plenty of resources out there on how to use the various programs... much less so on how to really *use* them, how to break down the image in your mind into its component parts and put them together until it looks like what you want. And now that we're in the iOS Era, having some graphics skill is just as important as knowing Cocoa Touch if you want to build your own apps. This meeting can include any topic that's graphics or image related, whether it's creating them, using them, or just demoing your favorite program(s).

description All about PostGIS! Then a trip to the Lucky Lab after. → Location-based services are all the rage these days, and almost everyone has a latitude and longitude or two stashed away in a numeric column somewhere. But, there is so much more to it than just a point. Once relegated to government and academia, geographic information systems are becoming increasingly visible. With the PostGIS extension, PostgreSQL is a first-class geodatabase and an incredible platform for working with spatial data, but what is PostGIS and why would one use it? And beyond PostGIS there are a dizzying array of tools to load, visualize and interact with the wonderful geospatial information in your database. This talk will cover GIS and PostGIS basics and provide an introduction to geodatabases and spatial queries. -- Edwin Knuth spent quite some time as a sysadmin and web developer before going back to school to study Environmental Science at the University of Alaska Southeast. He quickly became fascinated with Geographic Information Systems and realized that GIS was just a really neat database application. In Alaska, Edwin worked on several unique projects, including building bat detectors and using PostGIS to manage a wireless sensor network on the Juneau Icefield. He has lived in Portland for the past year and loves it very much. Then a trip to the Lucky Lab after.

This should be a fun talk and I don't doubt we'll all learn something. If any of you have already delved into these changes, please come share your experiences and if you haven't, well... no better time than Thursday night to learn about them!
