The events were held in Bismarck at the North Dakota Heritage Center.

The North Dakota GIS Technical Committee (GISTC) developed and hosted the GIS Day event. The GISTC would like to thank the following groups for their help and assistance: The Information Technology Department for sponsoring the event and providing the networking (especially John Glaser!), the North Dakota Heritage Center for the use of their wonderful facilities, the State Water Commission for providing the GIS Day posters, the Department of Commerce for supplying the GIS Day banner, and Central Duplicating for printing of the GIS Day announcements. The GISTC extends a special thanks to those who spent their valuable time preparing for the presentations, exhibits, and posters...and traveling to Bismarck to share their ideas with the GIS community. The GISTC wants to especially thank all of those who took time from their work load to attend the GIS Day events, in many cases traveling a long distance.
We hope to see you all next year for GIS Day 2004!
