His main areas of expertise include multispectral, hyperspectral, and SAR data, as well as LiDAR point clouds. He is a big open-source enthusiast and uses GRASS on a daily basis./ / / More recently, he has been the main initiator and developer of the i.hyper module, which is now part of the GRASS Addons. Alen is also a very good communicator and does a great job representing GRASS at various events. In particular, I would highlight his recent activities at FOSS4G Europe 2024, FOSS4G 2025 Auckland, and FOSS4G 2026 Hiroshima, where he led workshops on point-cloud processing in GRASS. He has also given numerous presentations at these events and has presented the State of GRASS several times. / / Last but not least, Alen is very active in the local community in Slovenia, where he has presented GRASS at events such as Open Source Geospatial Slovenia and GeoDev Slovenia. He has also been a regular and active participant in GRASS code sprints over the past few years. / / Looking at everything I have just listed, I almost feel like Alen is already doing some of the work of the PSC - so joining the PSC would simply give him the opportunity to do it in a more official way and, in his own words,??to be even more involved with GRASS and contribute more consistently to the project./ -- Hern?n De Angelis Chief Return Officer (CRO) GRASS election 2026 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
