On Friday, the 11th of November, we officially launched the GIS Hub together with the participants of the workshop, members of the Advisory Board and the entire GIS Hub Team.
We took the opportunity to officially launch the GIS Hub during the lunchbreak of our second workshop. Ross Purves, the director of the GIS Hub, kicked off the launch event by presenting the team behind the GIS Hub, its activities, goals, achievements so far and our future plans. The presentation was followed by an aperitif, sponsored by the GIS Hub.
The first part of the launch event consisted of a short presentation of the GIS Hub.
Among the participants at the launch event were students and researchers from different disciplines attending the workshop, Sara Fabrikant as representative of the Advisory Board and the entire GIS Hub Team. We hope that we were able to pass on our enthusiasm for GIS and we are looking forward to many more workshops, questions from our new GIS community and maybe some proposals for small projects!
