Dear All, With a little over a month left for the deadline for submission of abstracts (30 April, 2004) for GIS-IDEAS 2004, I take this oppurtunity to remind the subscribers of this list to kindly submit their abstracts through the symposium web-page (http://gisws.media.osaka-cu.ac.jp/gisideas04/). The conference is scheduled to be held at Hanoi University of Science, Vietnam from 16-18 September 2004. Details are available on the conference web-site. Looking forward to seeing many Geoinformatics researcher and practitioners at the Symposium and hoping that the meeting would be a big success. Would also like to request you all to pass on the info about the GIS-IDEAS 2004 through appropriate means that may available to you. Kind regards Raghavan ------------- Dr. Venkatesh Raghavan GIS-IDEAS 2004 Co-cordinator

[Gisideas] Smithsonian Conservation GIS Internship
by Vern Weitzel 19 Mar '04

19 Mar '04

Subject: [gislist] Smithsonian Conservation GIS Internship Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2004 15:07:19 -0500 From: GISCourse GISCourse <GISCourse(a)crc.si.edu> The Spatial Analysis Lab at the Smithsonian Conservation & Research Center (CRC) is seeking interns, to start immediately. The Lab focuses on developing remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications to conservation problems (http://nationalzoo.si.edu/ConservationAndScience/ConservationGIS). Projects include: 1. Assessing land cover change through remote sensing for the ranges of endangered species, with special focus on protected areas within these ranges. 2. Using GIS to map habitat for endangered species at different spatial scales. Currently we are working on Asian elephants, giant pandas, clouded leopards, maned wolves, Mongolian gazelles, and others. 3. Training of wildlife management professionals in application of GPS, GIS and remote sensing to every-day management. Interns will assist in the GIS/remote sensing aspects of these projects, enter data, help with training courses, and assist with everyday lab management. We seek interns with a good knowledge of computers, Windows operating systems, standard office software, and basic knowledge of GIS (preferably ArcView or ARC/INFO). Additional experience with remote sensing, ERDAS Imagine (or other image processing software), Adobe Photoshop, or GPS are a plus. The internship covers a stipend and housing. Send letter of interest and resume ASAP to Melissa Songer at songerm(a)crc.si.edu. Include dates of availability in your letter. The Conservation and Research Center is located at the north entrance of the Shenandoah National Park about 60 miles west of Washington, D.C., in Front Royal, VA. CRC's mission is to advance conservation of biological diversity. In meeting the Smithsonian Institution's mandate, CRC increases knowledge through investigations of threatened species, habitats, and communities, and disseminates knowledge through advanced studies, professional training, and public outreach. ***************************** David Zaks giscourse(a)si.edu 1500 Remount Road Front Royal, VA 22630 540-635-6535 (GIS Lab) 540-635-6506 (FAX) http://www.nationalzoo.si.edu/ConservationAndScience/ConservationGIS/GIS_tr… "Conserving the world's wildlife through onsite and remote sensing technology" ***************************** _______________________________________________ gislist mailing list gislist(a)lists.geocomm.com http://lists.geocomm.com/mailman/listinfo/gislist
