Robert Szczepanek initiated a new public mailing list that has just been added to the stack at the OSGeo mailing lists server – graphics@lists.osgeo.org:
Let’s create common, resuable graphical elements for many OSGeo projects.
We focus our discussion on design aspects of graphics – symbols, icons and signs.
Robert has been working on graphics and icons for GIS for long time.
The OSGeo Foundation Chief Returning Officer (CRO) has posted new nominations to OSGeo Charter Members.
Personally, I’m glad to see Robert Szczepanek from Poland listed among other noble members of OSGeo Community. Robert has played an important & leading role in FOSS and FOSS4G advocacy, education and development in our Polish yard for long time:
It’s a good news for OSGeo Community in Poland.
Hamish has announced a short tutorial about how to libLAS and GRASS together to process LiDAR data encoded in ASPRS LAS format:
It is actually quite a simple task, but sometimes the incantations and programs to use are not so obvious if you haven’t used the software extensively.
Indeed, I’m sure many of us will find Hamish’s writing helpful. I still have a hope to find time to instrument GRASS with libLAS support implemented as a module. Another option is to find someone who would be interested in doing it – I’m good in delegating, aren’t I? If there would be anyone, please don’t hesitate to drop a message on liblas-devel.
