Esri Lavahouse @ Palazzo Lavacca

Esri and the City of Austin will be sponsoring a hackathon to see who can build the most awesome mapping/data mashup in under five hours! The hackathon kickoff will happen during Esri's epic Geo Brunch at the Lavahouse. Just grab the geo trolley to get there!

It’s free! You can participate as an individual or a team. Prizes will be awarded to the winners by the hackathon partners (Esri and the City of Austin). Breakfast, lunch, coffee and beer will be available throughout the day, and there will be high speed Internet access and comfortable couches.

Come join us for awesome food and drinks at the Esri Geo Brunch at SXSW!

This is the only brunch in town where you'll be able to meet and talk with people interested in the future of mobile, maps and location! In addition to food, we'll have a photo booth where you can turn yourself into a physical trading card, and you'll be able to turn your fingerprints into a 3D city that you can zoom around in using an XBox controller!

Food and drinks are free and doors open at 10am for the brunch. Hang out until 2pm with interesting people. RSVP to hold your spot!

How do I get there? 

There's a trolley that you can take anytime. It will be circling around the convention center and 7th street. Just look for the trolley with the big Esri globe and hop on! You'll be dropped off right at the Lavahouse.

Thanks to Esri for hosting the location of this year's official OAuth meetup! We'll have plenty of space and free food and drink.

Come talk about the State of OAuth, it's future, implementation strategies and meet Aaron Parecki, author of the upcoming O'Reilly book OAuth 2: The Definitive Guide. Whether you're new to OAuth or you use it everyday, feel free to come to this event to meet others in the OAuth community. If you're up for it, there will be discussions about IndieAuth, OpenID, BrowserID and other alternatives as well.

Hang out with others interested in geo, mobile, maps, and the future of location at the Esri Geo Happy Hour!

We'll have a photo booth where you can turn yourself into a trading card, or turn your fingerprint into a 3D city you can zoom around with using your Kinect controller. Legendary photog Kris Krug will be on hand to take epic photos! Free food and drinks will be provided from 3-5pm every day, and the Esri Lavahouse will be open every day from Friday-Monday if you need a place to work during the conference.
