As Ian said, the Universities are stuck in a vicious circle. Believe it or
not, faculty do try to teach a GIScience that is independent of any
particular software package. But the perspective ends up being that ESRI
provides both the tools and teaching materials in a consistent manner. If

I have colleagues who are constantly unsubscribing from mailing lists

The MRSID format is a very special case - and perhaps an opportunity for a
new FOSS file format. MRSID is a lossless, fractal-based, multi-scale raster
compression format. LizardTech has the algorithms to encode and decode MRSID
locked up in copyrights, and I believe, patents. Even companies like

What does it mean? There've been many proposals already and the current US
Congress bill lays out $200M in new funding for the USGS. But how can
spatial information be used to return profitability to companies on

I'm about to submit my abstract to the AAG conference on comparing
available distributed geospatial technologies for the USGS National Map. Of
