Dear Prof. Venka,
Do authors of the GIS-IDEAS 2014 receive the hard copy of the proceeding at the registration desk as usual?
Thanks and best regards,

Dear All,
It is my great pleasure to inform that Prof. Takashi Fujita, co-founder of the GIS-IDEAS Conference [1] has been awarded the "Order of the Sacred Treasure" [2] by the Japanese government in autumn 2014.
It a very happy coincidence that the award comes in the same year (2014 ) when the other co-founder Dr. Nghiem Vu Khai was bestowed with the Order of the "Order of the Rising Sun" [3] by the Japan Government earlier in 2014.
Hearty Congratulation to Prof. Fujita and Dr. Khai!!
Best
