[Ica-osgeo-labs] OpenGIS examples in research and teaching for building Master "Geo for All" presentation

Thu Apr 24 02:05:57 PDT 2014

Alex,

Thanks for this. I am also getting good inputs on various OpenGIS teaching and research from colleagues outside our network for my call for inputs. For example today morning i received good examples of teaching (both Masters and undergraduate) and high impact research done at UCL using OpenGIS.

I will try to collate all examples and put it in ELOGeo, so we all can use it and keep it updated.

Suchith

Happy to answer questions about it. Sadly instead of a blog students
filled out surveys internally, and I can't release those results as of
this moment. Apparently writing about one's experience is hard for
science oriented students.
