I do not have a Web GIS course, but I think my students would benefit from this idea<br>

<div class="gmail_extra">Hi GeoForAll colleagues:</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">1) I've been looking for a good *overview* paper on open standards for data and GIST software. </div>
<div class="gmail_extra">OGC has a paper by Khalsa and Percivall [1] listed that looks very useful. Does anyone know of any others?</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">2) We are starting to design a Web-GIS course to be offered in Spring 2016. One idea I have is that we hold some GeoForAll speaker webinars, but we try to link them to courses some of the faculty in our network are teaching concurrently.
So, for example, we provide a overview reading (like the one above), have students read it, and then have a webinar by a knowledgeable speaker (or paper author, perhaps). We could record these talks for future reference in courses.</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">Would there be others interested in this for Spring 2016?</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">Would there be someone in our network who might be willing to do this around the topic of open geo standards?</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">Cheers,</div>
