Excellent update Tom, Phillip.

I had an excellent meeting today with Jon Corbett [1] (cc in) from University of British Columbia in Canada and i have invited him to join G4A. Jon is here for the Think Tank meeting on OpenCitySmart tomorrow where we will discuss ideas for Open Geospatial science- Vision 2030

Jon - you will have strong collaborators in USA to support your Canada efforts!

Hello


I just wanted to give you an update.  I just finished a workshop on QGIS at the GeoEd 2016 Conference in Louisville, KY.  I once again used the awesome curriculum from Phil's crew http://spatialquerylab.com/foss4g-academy-curriculum/ specifically GST 101 Unit 2 and 4. Then we discussed other tools in QGIS - Select by Attributes, Select by Location, etc.  There were 14 attendees.  There was a mix of educators and governmental personnel and a mix of beginners and advanced users.


I also discussed Kurt's new book: https://communityhealthmaps.nlm.nih.gov/


Finally I put a plug in for Geo4All labs.  I have not joined (one of my jobs this summer).


Hope it helps move Open Source GIS forward.


Thanks

Tom Mueller
