Conference Announcement:
The International Society for Digital Earth will meet June 5th through 9th
at UC Berkeley. This is the first time the conference, the International
Symposium for Digital Earth, has come to the United States. The coming
event includes speakers from NASA Worldwind, Google Earth, representatives
of indigenous peoples, and a wide range of concerned individuals seeking to
make a difference for society and the environment.
The Society describes itself as follows: "The Digital Earth vision embraces
a philosophy that any citizen of the planet, linked through the Internet,
should be able to freely access a virtual world of information and knowledge
resources. This philosophy supports the dream of ubiquitous education
for the people of the planet. A rich convergence of technological advances,
active visionaries, and recognition of the paramount need for humans to better
understand the Earth and its systems comprises the history of this dynamic and exciting
enterprise."
