> Of *Suchith Anand
> *Sent:* Thursday, June 9, 2016 8:58 AM
> *To:* discuss at lists.osgeo.org; geoforall at lists.osgeo.org
> *Subject:* [Geo4All] Open consultation on the Vision 2030 for Open

> Dear colleague,
>
> On behalf of Geospatial IG of the Research Data Alliance [1] and Geo 
> for All community, i would like to invite inputs for this *open 
> consultation on the Vision 2030 for Open Geospatial Science.*
>
> To start this process, Geospatial IG of the Research Data Alliance and 
> Geo for All organised a Think Tank meeting on 7th June 2016 at the 
> University of Nottingham bringing together top scientists, academics 
> and government agencies to discuss ideas forward. We chose the theme 
> of Urban GeoBigData and OpenCitySmart [2],[3] to expand ideas on this.
>
> I want to specifically thank my colleagues at the University of 
> Nottingham for thier support that made this Think Tank possible. Esp. 
> I want to thank Stuart Marsh, Mike Jackson, Darren Robinson, Didier 
> Leibovici and all colleagues globally who are involved in OpenCitySmart.
>
> Also special thanks to Peter Mooney, Jeremy Morley and Jon Corbett for 
> chairing the two discussion groups and collating inputs from all . I 
> have added this to the wikipage where we are collating inputs from the 
> wider community.
>
> The overview slides are at 
> http://www.slideshare.net/SuchithAnand/open-geospatial-science-vision-2030

> *So what is the essence of our Vision 2030 ?
>
> Geospatial Science = Open Geospatial Science*
>
>   *     Science should always be fully open and inclusive
>   *     Transparency of research is fundamental (no "black boxes" or
>     proprietary barriers).
>   *     Geospatial Science should be build fully on Open Principles
>     (Promoting an open research culture)
>
>
> In true spirit of Open Science, we have make available a wikipage in 
> Geo4All with the initial ideas generated after the Think Tank and 
> welcome the community for inputs .Together we all can shape the 
> research agenda for Open Geospatial Science for the future and help 
> build more ideas to enable the creation of a sustainable innovation 
> ecosystem for advancing the discipline and accelerating new 
> discoveries to help solve global cross disciplinary societal 
> challenges from climate change mitigation to sustainable cities.
>
> We welcome the wider community to contribute more ideas/inputs to show 
> us how we can together achieve this vision by either contributing to 
> the wiki directly (but please add your name and details so we can 
> acknowledge your contribution) at 
> https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Open_geospatial_science_-_vision_2030 or 
> email Suchith.Anand at nottingham.ac.uk
