[K S Rajan]

Dear Suchith, All, 

There will be an ISPRS event in Hyderabad later this Dec with a session on Education, Tech transfer and Capacity development. Are you aware of anyone planning to present ICA-OSGeo Lab Network at this session? If not, I would like to use this opportunity to spread the word in the community and promote our Network. 
regards, 
Rajan
