[OSGeoJapan-discuss] Fwd: GIS for Humanity

[BABA, Yoshihiko]

みなさま、

QGIS の開発者の Tim Sutton 氏から依頼が来ました。おそらく、Gary さんが QGIS のナンバーワンだとすれば、ナンバーツーの人です。ご本人からの文章を添付しています。

QGIS は、ただのソフトではない、「世界をよくするための何かだ」だ、というプレゼンをされるそうです。

・昨年の QGIS + R のハンズオンセッションの風景写真と資料を Tim さんにお渡しできないでしょうか？（私は参加していないので）
・震災や津波関連で、QGIS を使った事例のものが提供できないでしょうか？

プレゼンは11月ですが、今月中に資料を作りたいそうです。Tim さんに直接でも、私宛に連絡でもいいので、情報お持ちの方はご協力お願いいたします。

>  - people! People who use QGIS or who have benefitted from its use
>  - if you have more than 3 images that will be fine too
> - If you have multimedia materials a link to them online would be great
> - A paragraph or two telling your story
