Hi,

uses geo spatial technology in analysing the data.
* I am hoping to build knowledge base about  OSGeo terminology evolving
from this group.
* I would like to see a glossary of OSGeo terms collated into planning
domain
* I would like to see how best we can bring out a glossary manual.

Regards,
Vinita
