Monthly meeting of the Portland open source GIS group. Projects big and small are usually presented monthly along with rousing conversation and discussion. All are welcome, no need to RSVP - our group ranges from the geo-curious to the überhackers so bring your ideas and questions!
This month's agenda: exciting happenings in geodata, upcoming geoevents and bring your own geo-show and tell.
This month our special topic is "Tools for telling stories with Data and Maps". We'll cover a wide range of tools for making charts, tours, interactive graphics, timelines, (and of course maps!), and methods and tools for wrapping all these items up into stories built for the web. It'll be a whirlwind tour and cover options from tons of different free and open sources, so if this if this is your sort of thing, don't miss it!
As always, there will be pizza! And BYOB is always welcome.

AgilePDX Westside Cafe: Dealing Successfully with Conflict
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Many of our agile methods can increase conflict. Collaboration means conflict. Any time we try to solve problems different opinions emerge on what to do. Transparency can trigger insecurities and conflict. Experimenting and failing/learning rapidly is not intuitive to our society and is bound to generate some friction.
The stance we take when faced with conflict can help the team create something new, or it can add to the tangle. What do you do to help yourself stay present in the midst of conflict? What in-the-moment facilitation or coaching tools do you use when conflict is bubbling?
Join us and share your stories about conflict, what you have tried and what you have learned. Hope to see you Friday April 27th for a lively discussion on conflict management within agile teams. |

Portland Atlassian User Group teams up with local technologists to answer your questions and share their knowledge about Jira Service Desk.
<b>Details:</b>
<i>When?</i> Wednesday, May 16, 2018 - 5pm to 7pm PDT
<i>Where?</i> Wacom Experience Center - 1455 NW Irving St., Portland, OR 97209
<i>What?</i> Learning and collaboration. Bring an appetite and good questions! Food provided for those who <a href="https://aug.atlassian.com/events/details/atlassian-portland-oregon-presents-adapt-iterate-and-grow-with-jira#/">RSVP online (help us plan!)</a>
Dylan Pederson is a technical consultant who's successfully implemented JSD instances, migrated servers, and completed upgrades for a number of clients. He'll share his process and lessons learned, including the requirements gathering process, testing, backup, upgrade, and more.

Make sure you register here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/KZYLD2G
TEALS (Technology Education and Literacy in Schools) believes that every high school in the US should offer high-quality, rigorous computer science courses. Computer science is a vital driver in today’s global innovation economy, but most U.S. high schools – including more than 75% of Oregon high schools – are unable to offer rigorous CS courses. Without CS in high schools, our students are missing out on essential computational skills that will help them succeed in any career they wish to pursue, and professional skills that could lead to an economically secure future.
TEALS seeks to change that reality. Our volunteers work directly with classroom teachers to help them build and grow their CS teaching capacity through yearlong support and training to inspire the next generation of innovators and computer scientists.
You can read more about TEALS here: https://www.tealsk12.org/

PDX Women in Tech How to Study for a Technical Interview

***Registration through Eventbrite [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/pdx-women-in-tech-pdxwit-how-to-study-for-a-technical-interview-tickets-42283419847] is required to avoid having to manually check-in at the event ***
Interviewing for a new job can be a stressful proposition. It is hard to know what to expect and even how to prepare for it. Each company evaluates its candidates differently. Luckily, some upfront investment and preparation can really go a long way in helping you distinguish yourself from the rest of the candidates. In this seminar led by Manjiri McCoy, Software Development Engineer at Elemental, we will cover some common interviewing practices for technical interviews and what you may be able to do to get ready. We plan to cover many beneficial topics:
• Morning preparation, attire, mindset
• Preparation for the non-technical parts
• How to study for the coding interview
• How to execute the coding test
Due to the level of interaction required, attendance will be capped at 20. Never fear: we will be organizing this same event bi-monthly because we want everyone to have access to this workshop!
Agenda:
5:00 PM: Doors open
5:15 PM: Introduction
5:30 PM: Workshop begins
6:30 PM: Workshop ends
Event FAQ:
Q: What is the parking situation?
A: No on-site parking available at this event.
Q: Is there secured bike parking?
A: No secured bike parking available at this event.
Q: Should I consider using public transportation?
A: Yes, taking public transportation to this event is recommended. The event is conveniently located near MAX and bus lines.
Purpose:
PDXWIT is a community-based non-profit organization. Our purpose is to strengthen the Portland women in tech community by offering educational programs, partnerships, mentorships, resources and opportunities. We are unifying a supportive environment for current and potential women in tech, all of whom are committed to helping each other. Our goal is to bring together and empower women in tech and to encourage others to pursue tech careers. This is our step towards reducing the gender imbalance in the industry and addressing the current negative effects of that imbalance on women.
Our events are inclusive. ALL people who support our purpose are welcome.

***Registration through Eventbrite [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/pdx-women-in-tech-pdxwit-creative-women-in-tech-tickets-45042852384] is required to gain entry to this event ***
For the second installment of PDXWIT Women in Technology in the Creative Industry sponsored by Portland Ad Federation, we are focusing on Lessons in Failure.
We all fail at some point, but what matters most is if you learn from it, right?
Join us for a night of storytelling from a group of innovative women in the tech & creative industries. They will share not only their failures, but how they grew from them. It will surely be an evening of inspiration.
Agenda:
5:30 p.m. - Door open / Networking
6:00 p.m. - Introduction
6:15 p.m. - Panel Begins
7:15 p.m. - Panel ends / Q&A starts
7:30 p.m. - Event ends
Event FAQ:
Q: Will there be gender neutral restrooms?
A: Yes.
Q: Is the space ADA accessible?
A: Yes.
Q: Will there be food and drink at this event?
A: Yes.
Q: What is the parking situation?
A: There are 24 parking spots right in front of the building and additional visitor parking a bit further off.
Q: Is there secured bike parking?
A: Yes. Bike parking is located in an underground parking garage but attendees will have to enter through the main entrance on the ground floor (not via the elevators in the parking garage).
Q: Should I consider using public transportation?
A: There is a streetcar stop a couple of blocks away so getting here by public transit is easy.
Purpose:
PDXWIT is a community-based non-profit organization. Our purpose is to strengthen the Portland women in tech community by offering educational programs, partnerships, mentorships, resources and opportunities. We are unifying a supportive environment for current and potential women in tech, all of whom are committed to helping each other. Our goal is to bring together and empower women in tech and to encourage others to pursue tech careers. This is our step towards reducing the gender imbalance in the industry and addressing the current negative effects of that imbalance on women.
Our events are inclusive. ALL people who support our purpose are welcome. |

We all know that the secret to generating long-term revenue growth relies on your ability to deliver outstanding customer value.
But how to do you create a growth strategy that consistently improves customer experience and converts leads into evangelists?
Join us for an informal candid discussion where we'll uncover how successful startup founders and leaders employ a customer-centric mindset to power and scale their revenue growth.
This event is hosted by RevDev, a collective of startup growth advisors, as part of their Portland company launch and kick-off. The RevDev founders will walk us through their take on Success Marketing - a strategy that integrates Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success to deliver bigtime customer value and generate sustainable revenue growth.
RevDev will then be joined by three leaders of thriving Portland startups for a panel discussion about how customer-centricity can supercharge your growth strategy. Hear first hand the challenges they've faced, their lessons learned, and their secrets for growing revenue and customer loyalty. The topics will be selected from audience suggestions beforehand, and you'll walk away with actionable, field-tested, bottom-line-driving growth strategies and tactics in the disciplines that actually matter.
Join us and tell us what matters most to you, your team, and your business so that we can help you kick ass in 2018!
Agenda:
5:30 - Mingling, networking, food and drinks!
6:00 - Success Marketing introduction by Aaron Thompson, David Connors, and Kasey Jones from RevDev
6:20 - Panel discussion on how to use a customer-centric approach to fuel early growth
7:20 - More networking!
Meet our panel:
Aaron Ward, CEO of AskNicely. Aaron is a serial entrepreneur, with 20+ years of experience designing and launching disruptive, new-to-market products, channels, and businesses.
Julia Alena, President and CEO of ReelDx. Julia's career is marked by her dedication to the unrelenting pursuit of scalable and profitable paths to rapid growth while delivering an exceptional customer experience.
Nick Hill, VP of Product for Lithium Technologies. Nick is a product leader with a passion for creating well-designed, innovative products that lead their market. Nick has experience growing a company from a 10 person startup to a 700+ person publicly traded company.
This event is proudly sponsored by StarveUps!

Excel User Group: Intro to Power Query - First meeting!

Want to improve your Microsoft Excel skills? Check out this new meetup!
Power Query is the best addition to Excel since Office 2010 but it remains largely unknown.
Please, come and see a demo of Power Query if you need to do any kind of data-cleansing or data-preparation, like:
• Peel the domains out of email addresses
• Convert reports into sortable tables
• Compare lists
• Stack the data from multiple tabs
These common tasks can be done with built-in Power Query features, whereas, in the olden days some of these tasks required VBA coding or hours of manual effort.
Gaining some Power Query skill is one of the simplest ways to get more from your data. You'll see!
Oz du Soleil is a Microsoft Excel MVP, author of Guerrilla Data Analysis, 2nd Ed., and runs the YouTube channel Excel on Fire. Website: http://ozdusoleil.com/

April PMI Agile Round Table
Roll back
| description |
nil |

The PMI Agile Roundtable provides a forum for exchanging ideas, techniques and real world experiences (good and bad) in managing agile projects. Although sponsored by PMI, all roles and backgrounds are welcome and encouraged to participate / debate. We value the variety of perspectives and levels of experience with agile.
This Month we're honored to have Daniel Lynn present: Technical Consulting
Summary: What Is Technical Coaching?
All the best athletes teams have coaches. Musicians and singer? They have coaches too. If you’re a top-level executive at a Fortune 500 company, chances are you have a coach too. So what about the people building your products? Should they have coaches?
Coaching has really taken off over the past decade, but somehow our teams - the people who make the products that our companies live or die by - they’ve been left behind. In this talk we’ll discuss the what a technical coach does (and doesn’t do) and how to tell if your team could benefit from one.
About Daniel:
Daniel has been developing software for nearly two decades and has been working in agile teams for the last 10 years. More recently, he has worked with agile42 coaching teams on the adoption of agile practices both in code and across the organization, but his passion is still in writing great software and helping others do the same.
We will meet at:
The Standard
900 SW Fifth Ave,
Portland, OR 97204
Class Rooms 1 & 2
Meeting Rooms are on the lower level by OutTakes Cafe
Thanks to The Standard for providing space for this event
Note: PMI Certification holders can claim 1 PMI PDU for attending this event.

The MBA is partnering with the Technology Association of Oregon to host a hackathon focused on improving access to justice and services for self-represented litigants and the homeless.
<b>WHAT IS A HACKATHON?</b>
A hackathon is an event at which a large number of people meet to engage in a collaborative endeavor, splitting into teams and brainstorming new solutions to existing problems.
<b>COLLABORATE AND TAKE ACTION:</b>
This is a 2 day event. Will we kick off the event on Thursday May 17th with an introduction to the problems being worked on, networking, and team building. Friday May 18th, teams will work on the solutions to the problems before presenting their solution to a panel of legal and technical judges.
The hackathon will focus on improving accessibility and efficiency for access to homeless shelters and support services, pro bono volunteerism, and the new courthouse. There will be four problems teams can choose to work on:
<ol>
<li>Working with LASO to identify ways to harness technology to connect lawyers to pro bono opportunities; </li>
<li>Partnering with Transition Projects, Inc. to brainstorm about how an app or website can make it easier for homeless and people in transition can find shelter beds, meals, and other support services; </li>
<li>Working with a representative of the Multnomah County Courts to develop technology that helps self-represented litigants navigate the courthouse and legal system;</li>
<li>Partnering with a representative of the Multnomah County Courts to develop technology to assist those without limited or no financial resources in understanding where they need to be (and when) for court appearances, and assisting those individuals with transportation options and directions.</li>
</ol>
<b>WHO CAN ATTEND:</b>
This event is open to the general public! If you work in legal, are a developer, are a designer, work with the homeless population or have a desire to help, this event is for you! Know someone who is? Share this event with them. Space is limited, so register today.

Join us for happy hour at Squarespace on April 17th.
Do you want to amplify your voice? We do too, so we are dedicating this event to being heard, which can be accomplished in a number of ways. To facilitate the conversation, the topic of the night is “how do you inject your voice into the workplace?”
While the event is primarily intended for networking, we will have a short segment at 5:30 to share important announcements and showcase three women in our community.
Introduction to Squarespace, including what they do and what job opportunities are available.
Emily Milburn, Technical Project Leader at Corvel, will encourage us to practice communication skills that elevate our assertive voice.
Tiffany Longworth, Site Reliability Engineer at Puppet, will talk about tactical and whimsical ways to leverage fun to get work done.
During the event, we’ll have more to do than free-form networking:
- An Activity Table where people can get creative. This is a fantastic way to meet others if large groups are not your thing. If you have trouble finding it, look for Meg Aul, our Event Activities Director.
- Table Topics to help break the ice.
- A section for job seekers and our sponsors who are hiring, to ensure people get connected.
Agenda:
4:30 p.m. - Doors open/Networking
5:30 p.m. - Introductions, Announcements + Lightning Speakers
6:30 p.m. - Event ends

Purpose:
PDXWIT is a community-based non-profit organization. Our purpose is to strengthen the Portland women in tech community by offering educational programs, partnerships, mentorships, resources and opportunities. We are unifying a supportive environment for current and potential women in tech, all of whom are committed to helping each other. Our goal is to bring together and empower women in tech and to encourage others to pursue tech careers. This is our step towards reducing the gender imbalance in the industry and addressing the current negative effects of that imbalance on women.

Join us for happy hour at Expensify on May 22nd.
There is always so much going on at work and in our personal lives. We are curious — how do you do it? This month we want to hear from you about balancing the stress of constant growth. We will spark the conversation with our prompt “How do you balance stress with self care?”
While the event is primarily intended for networking, we will have a short segment at 5:30 to share important announcements and showcase three women in our community.
Introduction to Expensify, including what they do and what job opportunities are available.
Deborah Ivanoff, Life Coach, will share how to prevent emotional programming from hijacking your life.
Judy Ossello, Senior Transition Manager at Nike, will talk about managing the stress of constant change, whether at work or home.
During the event, we’ll have more to do than free-form networking:
- An Activity Table where people can get creative. This is a fantastic way to meet others if large groups are not your thing. If you have trouble finding it, look for
Meg Aul, our Event Activities Director.
- Table Topics to help break the ice.
- A section for job seekers and our sponsors who are hiring, to ensure people get connected.
Agenda:
4:30 p.m. - Doors open/Networking
5:30 p.m. - Introductions, Announcements + Lightning Speakers
6:30 p.m. - Event ends
Event FAQ:
Q: Will there be gender neutral restrooms?
A: Yes, on the 2nd, mezzanine and 3rd floors
Q: Is the space ADA accessible?
A: The building elevators are not up to ADA code (wheel in and turn around) but all of our floors are ADA. However getting to our floors via elevator is doable, just not up to code. Let us know if we should prepare for this.
