[Geo4All] Educational collaboration inventory wiki -- keep them coming in!

Wed Nov 22 09:00:42 PST 2017

Bob,

We started down that road with two different dev teams, so two different apps:

NASA Interns:
https://github.com/NASAWorldWindResearch/CitySmart

www.AWorldBridge.com students:

CitySmart - WorldWise Evaluation Video

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ztv0l9og61mfc4m/CitySmart_WorldWise_EvaluationVideo.mp4?dl=0

We learned a lot in the process and if we can find a serious programmer or dev team, we can share our ‘lessons learned’ with them

We need to make CitySmart even smarter and get this beautiful idea going all the way, cities benefitting each other given their common needs. This can bring the world together from the bottom up. I might add that www.GODAN.info<http://www.GODAN.info> has a similar mission only more specific to agriculture. And that OpenCitySmart-related effort is here: https://github.com/NASAWorldWindResearch/AgroSphere/wiki

Lots of good OpenCitySmart ‘stuff’ to consider and these great efforts will greatly help to guide what comes next! These apps might even be the seeds for growing.

Thanks Patrick. I think OpenCitySmart is a great theme to bring together colleagues doing teaching /research in Urban /Cities  to jointly work on collaborative educational materials. There are now many teaching programs started by universities globally (Masters and undergraduate) in this (for example,  Chris mail  yesterday on his new Masters program in Australia) , so it is good timing to plan joint efforts for teaching materials.

Best wishes,

Suchith

Suchith and Charlie, Howdy!

NASA, now in concert with ESA, has been reaching out for several years now, with our joint open source virtual globe platform.
https://worldwind.arc.nasa.gov/web/

WorldWind is the platform of choice for Earth Observation, Open Science, Open Source, and Open Challenge to Academia (Europa Challenge [grazie mille Maria Brovelli] http://eurochallenge.como.polimi.it/ ).

The Europa Challenge is oriented to challenge our children, our best and brightest, to deliver the solutions this world dearly needs.
The apps below are all previous winners of the NASA WorldWind Europa Challenge.

And by the way, these are the criteria we need for cities to begin working together on the same solutions they all need!

Thanks Charlie.  If anyone has difficulty adding to wiki please just send email to Charlie with your information and he can add.

This is also a good opportunity to reach out to wider geo community and see if any colleagues are interested to collaborate as well. I will follow up this.

Best wishes,

Suchith

Hi all,

A few people have added entries to the educational collaboration wiki [1] Thank you! Keep them coming [1]!
The goal is to identify 2-4 collaboration projects by at where at least 2-labs are collaborating on open access educational content they want to develop over 2018.
