I've known her since late 1990s, and I'd noticed her open source journey in late 2000s when I'd been still in the proprietary world. Her research and promotion made significant inflence on the public policy and industry atmosphere, especially in South Korea where geospatial economy is driven by public sector. Many of Korean OSGeo members are proud that we're doing better off in open source activities than any other indicators show. I believe Dr. Kang be one of the contributors to make it happen. <br><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">I think her work isn't done yet, but there is only her long way to go.

As a researcher in KRIHS(Korea Research Institute of Human Settlements), she has carried out many open source GIS projects and produced multiple fruitful results including OpenGDS. She is a leader of OpenGDS projects, which is partly being adopted in UN Open GIS Initiative. Also she has played a key role in UN Open GIS Initiative as a chair of Spiral 3.
