Welcome to the mid-July 2010 edition of our eNewsletter.
I just returned from Reno, NV after attending the National Association of Counties (NACo) 2010 Annual Conference and Exposition. NACo is celebrating 75 years of representing county governments across the US. There were about 2,400 in attendance. Our goal was to raise awareness for the benefits 3D machine control can bring to road building and landfill management. Check out their website at www.naco.org.
Below, we have the previous six articles from our exclusive MachineControlOnline authors. Please take a look. Also we have updated our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) article for 2010.
We continue to hear from our readers about new projects and bidding opportunities. If you are considering positioning and 3D machine control technology, welcome. MachineControlOnline.com is committed to serving as your knowledge base.
As always,I hope you enjoy this newsletter! Please stay tuned, visiting us often as we update the website daily. As always, please drop me a line if there is any subject about which you would like to see more information. I personally read every email! |
