Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Public Safety OSGeo Interests Here?
Arnie,I have some interests in the public safety arena, not currently working in that space professionally, for a number of years was involved in infrastructure management software mostly for utilities / telecom. Here's a link that might be interestinghttp://www.gita.org/ciper/gecco.aspGITA = Geospatial Information Technology Association (they were hired to manage FOSS4G/Denver in '11), they've hosted a number of workshops GECCo (Geospatially Enabling Community Collaboration) in various cities, one of them being Arlington TX in June '11, which I attended. These are not specifically geared to open source. I was there more or less to represent the OSGEO perspective (translation: No, please don't assume I'm referring to ArcGIS unless I specifically say that I am). I mention these events because they center around how multiple jurisdictions and other holders of geospatial data can best share resources to manage something as dynamic as a storm or other event that affects public safety -- my interests are in how open standards/software might tackle such a problem. I'd be pleased to see some sort of open source interest group form around this subject matter. Feel free to contact me offline if you wish. Robert H.

[OSGeo-Discuss] GRASS community sprint in Genova, Feb 2nd to Feb 9th, 2013
Dear OSGeo community, the GRASS GIS community sprint starts next weekend. For those who don't know the details yet, please have a look at the GRASS-Wiki: http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_Community_Sprint_Genova_2013. Herewith, I share some personal thoughts. Please, consider to join the sprint if you have the option to do so. If you live in a neighbouring country, try to squeeze your time and pay a visit in Genoa. Such gatherings, even more for end users, as myself, are unique, invaluable in reality. Don't you ever hesitate if you would like to join -- embrace the event! From my very user point of view, given the current participation plan, I 'll have the opportunity to: - meet freeriders Markus Neteler, Massimiliano Canata, Paolo Cavalini - meet very important hackers like Martin Landa, Luca Delucchi, Margherita Di Leo, Anna Kratochvilova, Anne Ghisla and Vaclav Petras - get to know more on GRASS-GIS in action with Luca Casagrande - get excited and boost-up python skills by drinking some of Pietro's (Zambelli) pythonian-magic filter! -- Oh yes, if you ever have a feeling like hmm, I want to do it with python but don't know where to begin joining Pietro's sessions is the ticket ;-) - chat with power user Nikos Ves (yes, while traveling together :-p) - meet other people that do quite interesting stuff - sneak into mesmerising tricks performed by Markus Metz, Yann Chemin -- those are magicians, not hackers - period. I wish I could see and talk to more of these epic giants who contribute in one way or another into the GRASS GIS project. There is still time. Spread the word around, join the meeting. Best, Nikos :D signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Hi Arnie, I'm interested in Public Safety application area. We have a yearly exercise called Golden Guardian and this year the exercise is a simulation of a catastrophic earthquake in the San Francisco Bay area. We are using Unified Incident Command and Decision Support (http://uicds.us/) to share information with with other state and federal agencies that are participating in this exercise. It would be so cool if there are more UICDS clients such as mobile apps.

Bob, thanks; that is most interesting. I will be looking to get current on what it is and how we might connect up.
