Dr Dan Ames,
Gary suggested that you might be able to provide a case study or similar
into the EPA's migration from ESRI to Open Source.
Specifically I have some Australian Government Agencies who would be
interested to use such work, and in general, such case studies would be
very beneficial for the uptake of Open Source globally.

Yes Gary, that would be great. Do you know where we can find information about
this?

After giving a presentation recently about Geospatial Open
Source, we
were asked whether there have been any case
studies on migration to
Geospatial Open Source.
The audience were very sympathetic to Open Source, but felt is

Can anyone point me to reports, or programs which have
migrated from
ESRI/Oracle applications (ArcGIS in particular) to Open Source
equivalents?
