Oggetto: [Ica-osgeo-labs] FW: Newsletter Vol. 1, No. 2 - September 2015
Many thanks to Nikos and all for their efforts and contributions for the second edition of our newsletter. It is now available to download at http://www.geoforall.org/
We would like to invite articles from Industry , Universities/Education, Startups, NGOs, Governments on examples of how Open Geospatial Software and Open Data is empowering them and created many new opportunities for "Geo for All" newsletters.
* Examples of Open Source Geospatial and Open Data empowering and creating new opportunities for Geospatial Industry
* Examples of Open Source Geospatial and Open Data empowering and creating new opportunities for Startups
* Examples of Open Source Geospatial and Open Data empowering and creating new opportunities for Universities/Education
* Examples of Open Source Geospatial and Open Data empowering and creating new opportunities for Government organisations
* Examples of Open Source Geospatial and Open Data empowering and creating new opportunities for NGOs
We are esp. interested to hear from government organisations/regional/local authorities on how Open source GIS software helped the local authorities and various government departments in reducing huge annual licence fee costs for proprietary software and the taxpayers as a whole benifitted from cost efficiencies, reduce the cost of lock-in to suppliers and products. Now imagine the costs for not just one year but in the future 5, 10 , 25 years. The savings will be billions of dollars of taxpayers money globally which can be invested by governments in education, healthcare etc.
So please do send examples of how Open Source Geospatial and Open Data is empowering and creating new opportunities from Geospatial Industry, Startups, Education, NGOs, Government organisations to our chief editor of "Geo for All" newsletter -Dr. Nikos Lambrinos, Dept. of Primary Education Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece ( Email - labrinos at eled.auth.gr <http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ica-osgeo-labs> )
Best wishes,
Suchith
