Environmental Sciences at the University of Colorado Denver, USA [1].


Rafael is also very active contributor in the OSGeo's GeoForAll initiative . 
Rafael Moreno led the effort to establish the FOSS4G lab which opened in 2014 
in the Department of Geography and Environmental Sciences at the University of 
Colorado , USA  to fulfill a growing demand for education, research and service 
in Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial applications (FOSS4G) 
development and applications by citizens, businesses, governments, educators,

assisting educators and students.

Rafael also initiated and leads the GeoForAll's "Open Geospatial Science &
