Solutions from the Global Navigation Satellite System Community http://www.insidegnss.com/ subscriptionservices FOREWORD Over the last 20 years, geospatial technologies have evolved and dramatically converged with a variety of disciplines ranging from Urban development, Natural Resource Management, Construction & Engineering, Infrastructure & Utilities etc. The discrete, even esoteric pursuits we referred to as GIS, Earth imaging, GPS, AM/FM, location based services and navigation systems are no longer discrete. Now, they are very well integrated into variety of developmental planning activities. From being a highly specialised scientific endeavour, geospatial industry has evolved and grown significantly over the past five decades to become a full fledged specialised industry. Today, it is on its way to become part of a larger consumer industry. This transformation has been made possible by the vision, competence, dedication and commitment of many professionals, programmes, institutions, associations, com- panies and above all geospatial thought leaders who have provided direction to this industry. With an aim to facilitate the development of the geospatial industry and to bring together all the stakeholders, Geospatial World Forum is being organized by Geospatial Media & Communications and co-organised by Kadaster, The Nether- lands from 23-27 April 2012. With this year’s theme as “Geospatial Industry & World Economy”, the conference shall touch upon the dimensions and directions of geospatial industry and shall attempt to bring forward and project its utility, contri- bution and relevance to several important industries contributing to the economy of the world. On behalf of the organiser and the co-organiser, I would like to thank all our part- ners, sponsors, speakers and delegates for believing in us and supporting us in our attempt to bring together the global geospatial community. I am sure that the event would provide you a perfect business, learning and networking platform. We wish you all a very rewarding and productive conference. We sincerely hope that each one of you would take away some good experiences and memories of this opportunity.

Professionals will be able to optimise their workflows to be more productive and make smarter decisions. Citizens will be able to better interact with local, regional or national governments as well as enjoy the convenience of having GIS enabled apps on their smartphones. This exponential growth of the use of GIS is good for the GIS related software vendors and the many partners related to these companies. However, it also stresses the importance of educating people in geospatial technology and applications; currently there is a shortage of students in this field compared to the number of potential job opportunities. Further cooperation between the commercial and academic world together with governments is needed to improve this situation. Mean- while we are facing many challenges at a global scale in terms of energy, water, food, and security that are being driven by population growth and climate change. Gaining a better understanding about the scale and scope of these changes, and how they are interrelated, is a big job that requires a strong methodology with interconnected systems and monitoring approaches. Improved GIS capabilities coupled with the ability to collaborate via cloud-based applications and social media makes us optimistic that more can be done to find answers to these challenges. Igniting the “Dynamic Geospatial Ecosystem”: Bringing Geospatial Information to the World Ola Rollen, President and Chief Executive Officer, Hexagon, Sweden The Dynamic Geospatial Ecosystem – it’s the next paradigm of the information revolution, and it com- mands a new equilibrium in the geospatial industry. This new ecosystem not only integrates geospatial technologies and data into mainstream business enterprise systems but now also extends geographic information and its unlimited applications to consumers – not just the GIS user. However, geospatial data usage by everyone demands widespread access and distribution. Furthermore, extending geospatial information’s utility and relevance beyond the few and to the many

  • No Enemy but Winter and Rough Weather" ("As You Like It")
    "No enemy But winter and rough weather" ("As you like it") (Chrondisp 3) Chapter 1 We were driving through a silent white tunnel. Snow was a blinding glare in the twin thrusting halogens, resolving into white dots accelerating at us like flak. The misses zoomed smoothly away and over as they found the boundary layer on the hood; the hits flopped heavily onto the tinted triplex, to be impatiently waved aside by the over-worked droning wipers. Jim's square face in profile was devilish in the underlighting, eyes hidden in black holes like Torquemada. His hand reached out of the gloom to push yet again at the heating gate. "10:17pm Friday" the dash clock read; "7:17am Saturday" my wrist watch would read, as jet-lagged I fought hot-eyed against the hypnotic wipers and the warm air blasting back from the windscreen. Another car slowly overtook us, thrown up sludge slamming on our 467 Merc and immediately we were at the bottom of a black greasy ocean. `The prick,' Jim muttered, flashing his main beam. The note of the wipers deepened, laboured and gradually we rose to the surface. The overtaking car's green number-plate froze for a moment in our headlights - "California - The Sunshine State". Pushing technology to the limit, the Airbus 770 had dropped vertically through the blizzard with screaming jets into LA exactly on schedule. But immediately after touchdown we had run out of technology. Lines of Mexicans with shovels were pushing aside the snow and an unknown Edison had clamped a plank to a fork-lift truck.There are no snow-ploughs in Los Angeles.

  • Investment Proposal Prepared For: Online Portal Prepared By: Jack Mcconnell, Founder, Guitar & Vocals November 2020 Proposal Number: V3 EXECUTIVEMELBA SUMMARY
    MELBA Investment Proposal Prepared for: Online Portal Prepared by: Jack McConnell, Founder, Guitar & Vocals November 2020 Proposal number: v3 EXECUTIVEMELBA SUMMARY About Melba Culp is a hard rock and heavy metal band formerly based out of Austin, TX - now based out of Russia and Finland. Founded by Jack McConnell in 2015. Objective The guitar-driven band hit the world hard in 2019 with its fast-paced and hard-hitting aggressive single "Never Surrender". Melba Culp is an independent artist looking to challenge the current structure of the music industry and therefore seeks non- traditional financing from outside industry standards. Melba Culp plans to finish recording remotely and release their full-length LP, therefore, an outside investment is needed to further challenge the industry and grow Melba Culp. This unique structure of self-sufficiency will allow greater artist control, greater cash-flow through the entity and is expected to provide a larger net profit for the artist organization. Solution & Investment To continue the growth of Melba Culp as it’s own self-sufficient entity, an investment of $30K is needed (required up-front investment of $15K - recording expenses). The funds will allow the band to produce full audio and video content for a debut album, it’s marketing and basics for a live production to support scheduled high-profile 2022 performances and future performances. The following is offered in return: 30% of net profits until recouped. 5% of net profits in perpetuity. 1. A minimum investment of $3K is required. 2. Profit distribution is quarterly on a calendar year basis (January 1 - December 31) 3.
