The 16th Annual Conference for Professionals in Property Assessment, Tax Administration, Mapping and Information Technology

The International Association of Assessing Officers (IAAO) and the Urban and Regional Information Systems Association (URISA) are pleased to announce the 16th GIS/CAMA (Geographic Information Systems / Computer-Assisted Mass Appraisal) Technologies Conference, to be held March 12-15, 2012 at the Hyatt Regency in San Antonio, Texas.

Thanks to our 2012 Conference Platinum Sponsor, Manatron, and our Gold Sponsor, Esri!

Program Overview

 The conference committee, composed of IAAO and URISA members, developed the educational program after a thorough review of abstract submissions received through the Call for Presentations. Three overall themes emerged and the breakout sessions are organized accordingly:

• Get It Done – At a time when budgets and staff sizes are dwindling, getting your work done better and more efficiently is critical.  Presentations in this track are designed to give you ideas for improving processes from field data collection to data integrity.

• Run the Numbers – Accurate and equitable valuations are the cornerstone of an assessment office.  Learn new ways of analyzing data and take away the lessons learned from statistical models that are being used all over the world.

• Serve It Up – Public confidence can rise and fall based on the effective sharing and communication of property data and values with taxpayers, businesses, and other entities.  Let peers show you how they have stepped up to the challenge and changed the ways or methods they utilize, display, and communicate data.
