Sorry, this was a bit big and awaited email list moderator approval. I cancelled and put the GIS Specification document at the following URL: http://www.geog.leeds.ac.uk/people/a.turner/personal/blog/archive/2008/0 3/03/GIS Specification.doc <http://www.geog.leeds.ac.uk/people/a.turner/personal/blog/archive/2008/ 03/03/GIS Specification.doc> ________________________________
From: Andy Turner Sent: 03 March 2008 14:14 To: 'OSGeo Discussions' Cc: Stephen Carver; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: FW: GIS for JMT Hi OSGeo Community (cc Steve, Mike), Sorry if I should have posted this elsewhere. My colleague Steve Carver has been approached by Mike Daniels from a charitable organisation (John Muir Trust) for a GIS solution to managing its data and collaborative working. I am sure that an OSGeo software stack with some consultancy and training is the best option. I asked to forward the invite to tender to this list. Is anyone interested? If so, you can contact Mike Daniels direct. There may also be some collaborators with links to the University of Leeds that might be interested in working up a proposal. Is there documentation for a similar OSGeo Use Case? Is there documentation on similar invites to tender and offered solutions? I've sent this on without finding a service registry with lists of consulting companies. I think such a thing exists, but I didn't find it with a quick search... I am interested to know what solution is put in place, but personally don't have time to contribute to such an effort right now. Best wishes, Andy http://www.geog.leeds.ac.uk/people/a.turner/ ________________________________ From: Stephen Carver Sent: 03 March 2008 12:20 To: Andrew Evans; Andy Turner; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 'Justin Washtell'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: FW: GIS for JMT Hi folks, Is anyone interested in the attached? Basically, providing a cheap-and-cheerful and/or off-the-peg means of John Muir Trust sharing GIS data among a small number of users at different sites (Internet linked) with minimum functionality (upload data, swithc on/off layers, zoom in/out, pan, print as JPEG/PDF). I've no idea as to what monies they have in mind but they're a charity so it won't be mega bucks. If you're interested can you contact Mike direct or pass on to those who you think might be. I'll probably going to the workshop that Mike mentions as I should (hopefully) be doing some more analytical work for them in due course on wildness mapping. Ta! Steve From: Mike Daniels [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 03 March 2008 11:31 To: Stephen Carver Subject: GIS for JMT Dear Steve I contacted you recently in connection with exploring GIS options for JMT. I am now keen to progress this towards the stage of having costings, timetable etc. drawn up so that I can take proposals to senior management and explore funding options (no promises given!). I therefore attach an outline of where our thinking has got to on what we require. I would appreciate your quick thoughts on: a) your interest in this work b) an outline of approximate costings and timetable c) your willingness to attend a GIS workshop hosted by us alongside rival contractors to help us finalise our decision I would very much appreciate your thoughts by the end of this week, if at all possible. Please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss further, more info.
