We are pleased to announce the 2008 GEOSS in the Americas Symposium
will take place in Panama City, Panama from 30 September to 3 October
2008. The purpose of the symposium is to increase understanding of
GEOSS in the region, promote and raise awareness about existing
activities and potential new projects, strengthen partnerships, and
advance a dialogue about opportunities, capabilities, and requirements.
The symposium will build on the success of the first GEOSS in the Americas Symposium hosted by INPE in Brazil in 2007. As before, the symposium will emphasize
communication among experts from the region around specific aspects of
GEOSS implementation.
Watch the GEO Meetings and Events calendar for detailed information and
links to a symposium website to be available in the near future. We
look forward to seeing you in Panama.
