Apologies for the delay running into some complications with the kernel upgrade. So server is still down.

I'm going to restart osgeo7 shortly. I had to delay since backup was still running.

Dear colleagues,
I received email from some colleagues requesting more information on the
Trademark of “Science”. So for openness and transparency , I would like to
provide more information.
I am not a native English speaker, so my apologies if anything got lost in
translation. Please feel free to ask me if you need any further information.
I am a Geographic Information Scientist. Geographic Information Science (GIS)
is my scientific discipline. I am now writing an article on Education which is
also looking into the Ethics of Digital Feudalism in GIS Education. I am
inviting advice and guidance from colleagues as I have many questions that I do
not know answers. Hence I shared my ethical questions.
I came across example of a vendor trademarking “the Science of Where” in the
GIS/mapping domain and using this to promote their brand/products/services.
https://trademarks.justia.com/871/92/the-science-of-87192660.html
Is it Ethical to market/promote any vendor brand/products/services as “the
Science ” of whichever area of study ? Is Science in that subject area
“owned” by the Vendor who has trademark rights? For example if vendors start
trademarking and marketing their brand/products/services as “The Science of
Climate Change” , “The Science of Where” etc etc? If so, what are the
implications for credibility of Science?
Are there any guidelines for Scientific Associations (esp. if they are members
of the International Science Council ) for taking sponsorship from vendors who
promote their product/brand/services as “The Science of “whatever” topic !?
I am a member of the GEO Data Ethics Working Group (The WG was closed this
month by GEO Secretariat due to “resource constraints” ) where I have been
raising the issue of vendor sponsorship for Group on Earth Observations (GEO)
conferences, projects etc and the need to have clear guidelines.
I will appreciate advice and guidance from colleagues on this. Thanks.
Best wishes

Dear colleagues
I am now writing an article on GIS Education and I will appreciate your advice
and guidance.
Is it ethical for GIS Vendors (Vendor X or Y , it doesn’t matter) to
trademark/sales/market their products/brand/services as “the science”? It might
be a profit /sales/marketing strategy for the vendors to help increase market
share for their products, add more credibility for their
brand/products/services etc . But what will be the affects for the credibility
of science and scientific community in the future?
If any Vendor is “sponsoring” Scientific conferences or education initiatives
("free" licences etc) in return for promoting the vendor products/brand as “the
Science” in the conference website etc , what is its impact for the
discipline? Is it ethical? If so, what happens when then the vendors can use
this framework “sponsorship “ model for promoting their product/brand as “The
Science” and advance the vendor Education agenda to the student and user
communities ? Are there any guidelines on vendor lobbying in GIS Education
initiatives?
What is the ethical impact of this for the discipline as a whole? What is
the impact of this for Humanity?
Are there university policies and code of conduct to follow if any
academics/researchers are funded by any vendor (for example, through GIS vendor
funded faculty posts , research funding by any GIS vendors)? Can academics
and researchers publish articles on GIS education promoting the vendor products
(either directly or indirectly)?
I am interested to learn more on what policies and curriculum are universities,
educators adopting to reduce Digital Feudalism in GIS education? Do your
courses cover topics on data rights, digital citizenship ?
I will appreciate your advice and guidance. Please send your reply to
suchith.an...@nottingham.ac.uk
You might be interested in the Data Values article that myself and Kathryn
Bailey wrote , which looks into the Ethics of Digital Feudalism in Earth
Observation (EO) data. I thank the Global Partnership for Sustainable
Development Data (GPSDD) and Data Values initiative for inviting us to write
this article.
