A low-tech gathering of technology, mapping, outdoor and other assorted geeks in the fabulous Peak District.

There may be some guest talks, but this is really about the social. The emphasis is enjoying the Great Outdoors, getting natural UV rather than the kind generated from your computer monitor, with plenty of group activities including (but not limited to) kite-flying, climbing, bouldering, walking, ballooning, mountain biking and trail cycling, as well as mapping and geo-caching.

Full details of location to be confirmed. Camping is likely, but we are also looking at bunker and hostel accommodation for the less hardy. There will likely be a cost involved, basically to cover your accommodation and food expenses. More information to follow.

In the meantime, register your interest here.

Neil Wilkinson, technical director of Yahoo!7 and Yahoo!Xtra, and Pamela Fox, developer programs engineer for the Google Maps API, will give an insiders perspective of their mashup development tools.

Then you will have a chance to immediately put this knowledge to use building your own mashup on the spot.

The workshop is especially suited for university students, researchers and developers who want to apply this new technology in their projects. Familiarity with a programming language like Java or JavaScript is recommended.

See the workshop website for further information and registration.
