Webcasting Information

In order to provide wider access to meetings of the Minnesota Governor's Council on Geographic Information, the council has begun to use webcasting technology at full council meetings.

Please let us know whether you find this service useful or whether you have suggestions on how to make it more effective. Be aware that technological problems are always a possibility and the council holds no responsibility for failed broadcasts or connections.
