This might be of interest to some colleagues. It will be good if we can present an abstract for this esp highlighting the mapathons and how geodata can contribute to advance the frontiers of research. As it is held in Denver , Rafael and colleagues may be able to present as well !

Maria, Rafael - what do you think?
