Dear CRO,

I have confirmation of Santiago Higuera[1] to be nominated for the
OSGeo Charter Membership.

Santiago is one of the key members of the Spanish Language OSGeo
community[2] since 2010, currently serving on its Board of Directors.
Santiago is a truly advocate of Open Source for Geospatial and always
proactive to share his knowledge in different contexts, including his
work as a lecturer at the Civil Engineering school at the Polytechnic
University of Madrid.

He was one of the founders of the Geoinquietos local group in
Madrid[3] and also in Santander[4] cities in Spain, helping to
organize different events and activities around OpenStreetMap and
OSGeo projects.

With this nomination I hope he will renovate and reinforce his
commitment to the Open Source Geospatial community.

All the best
Jorge
