Colleagues,
On behalf of "Geo for All" http://www.geoforall.org , i am pleased to inform that we have established Urban Science and City Analytics Thematic led by Chris Pettit (University of Melbourne) and Patrick Hogan (NASA) to expand our research in this area and plan joint collaborations globally.
All those interested are welcome to join the thematic working group .All participants should support the 'Open Cities Guiding Principles.' (Thanks to Cameron Shorter for this.)
Open Cities - Guiding Principles :
All material created is made available for all under an Open License
All material is carefully designed (modular componentry) so that it can be built upon by others
All participants aim to reuse, extend and invent material (in that order)
We have decided to make use of the meeting opportunity at Research Data Alliance Plenary 5 San Diego, to expand this ideas at the joint meeting of IG Geospatial & IG Big Data. We have allocated some time for the Road Map Challenge discussion (joint ideas in Geospatial and Big Data ) See ideas in place at http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GeoForAll_UrbanScience_CityAnalytics
Please find the draft agenda for the meeting.
