Dear Franz-Josef, Pradeep,

Thanks for your efforts for organising the  Academic / Scientific Track of
the FOSS4G conference, Bonn . The Academic Track for FOSS4G has now expanded
(thanks to efforts of you and Barend) and now well established.  We will
send this CfP through various channels and i am sure there will be strong
participation. I also request colleagues to volunteer for the Scientific
Committee to please inform the AT Chairs asap .

Pradeep - thanks for working to establish  ICA-OSGeo-ISPRS lab in Kerala
University which will be the first OSGeo lab in Kerala. I am from Kerala and
I did my Pre-degree in Kerala University, so it is good to hear this. Venka
and Thuy Vu (our Asia chairs) will be pleased to provide any guidance you
need.

Best wishes,

Suchith

Subject: [Ica-osgeo-labs] [FOSS4G 2016] Invitation to become member of the
Scientific Committee and for review

Dear colleagues,

this year I am (co-) chairing again the Academic / Scientific Track of the
FOSS4G conference [1]. While Barend is contributing this time as member of
the Scientific Committee I am collaborating with Pradeep from Kerala
University with whom I already organized several scientific events before.
Pradeep is also on the way of establishing a Ica-osgeo-lab at Kerala
University in 2016.

For the Academic / Scientific Track of FOSS4G 2016,  being held in in Bonn,
Germany (24 -- 26 Aug), we are looking for colleagues to set up a Scientific
Committee (SC) coupled with the local Programme Committee.

Our SC will steer the course of the conference, and will decide on the
tracks, the lead speakers, the sessions, the chairs, and of course the
presentations that will be made. In addition recommendations for further
publication of selected papers in TGIS, IJC, or OSGeo Journal can be given.

The deadline for paper submission is March 21th 2016. Hence our main work
will start afterwards. 

And, of course, we need support regarding the dissemination of the Call for
Papers [2]. I attach the CfP document for further distribution.

Please send your expression of interest to participate in the SC and/or
reviewers panel to Pradeep and me using this email address:

academictrack at foss4g2016.org

My hope is that we can move together the idea of Openess in Geospatial IT,
data, education, and standards significantly forward by intensified
integration of academia in the context of FOSS4G.

Best regards - Franz-Josef
