[Qgis-developer] Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS For Humanity

[maning sambale]

Dear Tim,

I am currently employed in a research organisation using mostly
foss-geo tools (primarily QGIS) for our mapping needs.  Our work is
focused on scientific research, disaster risk and preparedness,
community development, indigenous peoples and education.

More info here:  http://essc.org.ph/

All our reports are available in the site.  If you need any specific
topic just send me an email.
