Hi all,<br /><br />it's incredible how much "momentum" for a weekend.<br />Count on me by 9th March. <br /><br />I<br /> agree with Patrick that it is very important to have clear our goal and<br /> what is the network useful for (if I understood properly Patrick). If <br />not, we can only have a very active mailing list.<br /><br />About experiences with networks, I can suggest you HAROSA, that was creat at Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC):<br />http://dpcs.uoc.edu/joomla/index.php/about-harosa-kc<br /><br />They created it from scratch (like ours) but made several steps that I think that were key for its success:<br /><br />1)<br /> First of all, they do an international workshop where every lab <br />involved could present its works. It took three days and was useful to <br />know what were everyone doing and interested in. At the end of this <br />first workshop, they decided the next collaboration steps. The workshop <br />is repeated every year.<br /><br />2) PhD students visites the labs in the network and, some times, had co-advisors in several labs.<br /><br />3) They created a peer-reviewed JCR special issue about the topic.<br /><br />4) They applied for projects in Spain as well in Europe.<br /><br />The<br /> money came from UOC in the first steps. If we have interest in this <br />kind of network, I can ask if these kind of calls are still alive.<br /><br />Hope this helps!<br /><br />Toni<br /><br /><br /><br /> <br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, Tahoma; font-size: 11px; color: #2e3a69;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Antoni Pérez Navarro</span> <br /><span style="font-weight: normal;"> Estudis d'Informàtica, Multimèdia i Telecomunicació [Responsable de les assignatures de Física i Sistemes d'Informació Geogràfica]</span> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Universitat Oberta de Catalunya</span> <br /></span> <br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, Tahoma; font-size: 11px; font-weight: normal; color: #4d4d4d;">aperezn@uoc.edu <br />22@ (Rambla Poblenou, 156 / 08018 Barcelona) <br />@tonipereznavarr<br /></span><br /> <br /><img style="margin: 0px -10px 4px; border: none;" src="https://cv.uoc.edu/WebMail/resources/img/UOC_e_mail.gif" alt="Universitat Oberta de Catalunya" /> <br /> <br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, Tahoma; font-size: 10px; font-weight: normal; color: #969798;">Aquest missatge s'adreça exclusivament a qui va destinat i pot contenir informació privilegiada o confidencial i dades de caràcter personal, la difusió de les quals és regulada per la Llei orgànica de protecció de dades i la Llei de serveis de la societat de la informació.

Thank you everyone for contributing. It is also good that the main points are being updated in the wiki at http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GeoForAll_UrbanScience_CityAnalytics<br />><br />> As i have now got confirmation on the tele meeting arrangements for the Geospatial and Big Data IG meeting at RDA 5 on 9th March 2015, may i suggest that we use the meeting opportunity at Research Data Alliance to discuss this further face to face or remotely (remote connection details below) . I think this is a perfect opportunity as it not only brings together the three communities (Urban Science, Geospatial and Big Data )in RDA but also now gives us good opportunity to expand our ideas on this theme for the future.<br />><br />> Chris will be chairing the session.
