Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] GIS Homeland Security (UNCLASSIFIED)
Interesting article, of course. Now feel free to tag the following as as snide remark. I have to point out that the South Succotash Fire and Emergency Med's team have been doing this kind of GIS thing for some years now, just up the street from some of you. Not calling it that, but rather Computer-Aided-Dispatch (CAD), an example being our free Open Source CAD (www.ticketscad.org), targeted to teams (often smaller, or all volunteer) who'd rather spend scarce $ on comm's or equipment. Like where's the target/Incident, where are suitably qualified,equipped and available responders, and who's closest time-wise? Believe me when I say that I understand the scale/urgency/availability issues involved. But the SSFEM guys deal with life-threatening situations on a day-in, day-out basis. Because the smaller teams typically have so little $$$ to spend they're just not seen as an attractive market. Therefore, Tickets CAD. (The larger jurisdictions typically WILL commit $ to commercial CAD products, and live with the problems attendant upon proprietary products.) For my money, these teams are the authentic backbone of homeland security . So there!

[OSGeo-Discuss] REMINDER: Tomorrow is last day of nominations for the Sol Katz Award
Don't forget to nominate your local leader! -jeff On 12-09-17 10:26 AM, Jeff McKenna wrote: Original Message Subject: [OSGeo-Announce] Sol Katz Award for Geospatial Free and Open Source Software - Call for Nominations Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2012 13:39:38 -0700 From: Frank Warmerdam warmer...@pobox.com To: annou...@lists.osgeo.org The Open Source Geospatial Foundation would like to open nominations for the 2012 Sol Katz Award for Geospatial Free and Open Source Software. The Sol Katz Award for Geospatial Free and Open Source Software (GFOSS) will be given to individuals who have demonstrated leadership in the GFOSS community. Recipients of the award will have contributed significantly through their activities to advance open source ideals in the geospatial realm. Sol Katz was an early pioneer of GFOSS and left behind a large body of work in the form of applications, format specifications, and utilities while at the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. This early GFOSS archive provided both source code and applications freely available to the community. Sol was also a frequent contributor to many geospatial list servers, providing much guidance to the geospatial community at large. Sol unfortunately passed away in 1999 from Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, but his legacy lives on in the open source world. Those interested in making a donation to the American Cancer Society, as per Sol's family's request, can do so at: https://www.cancer.org/involved/donate/donateonlinenow/index Nominations for the Sol Katz Award should be sent to solkatzaw...@osgeo.org with a description of the reasons for this nomination. Nominations will be accepted until 23:59 UTC on September 28th. A recipient will be decided from the nomination list by an OSGeo designated selection committee. The winner of the Sol Katz Award for Geospatial Free and Open Source Software will be announced in early October. The hope is that the award will both acknowledge the work of community members, and pay tribute to one of its founders, for years to come. It should be noted that past awardees and selection committee members are not eligible. Past Awardees: 2011: Martin Davis 2010: Helena Mitasova 2009: Daniel Morissette 2008: Paul Ramsey 2007: Steve Lime 2006: Markus Neteler 2005: Frank Warmerdam Selection Committee: Jeff McKenna (chair) Daniel Morissette Frank Warmerdam Markus Neteler Steve Lime Paul Ramsey Sophia Parafina Helena Mitasova Martin Davis ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
