    I very much like the idea of joining CalView. I definitely have some
    questions about joining the consortium and would be curious to hear,
    during our discussion on Dec. 17, how much everyone is doing with remote
    sensing versus GIS, and how the component of data sharing & 'innovative
    license agreements' would work for purchases within our system.

    Looking forward to seeing you all in just a few weeks! Ikes!

    Sincerely,

    Hi all,

    Remember Calview, the California chapter of the AmericaView program
    (www.americaview.org)? They promote remote sensing data and
    technologies.
    The UC/Stanford Map Group had Kathy Stroud send a letter of support a
    few years ago. Amy King, Calview Coordinator is at UCSD, and they are
    connected to CASIL http://gis.ca.gov/ . That's my understanding.

    I, for one, use the CASIL data often, so I am favorable to discussing
    the possibility of joining their consortium, as proposed by Amy King.
    Her information is in the attached files, and below my email.

    I am forwarding this information ahead of the discussion we are having
    at the Calmap meeting in December so you can prepare. Does anyone think
    we should invite Amy King to attend the meeting as she has asked?

    Wendie

    Hi Wendie,
    It was nice chatting with you on Tuesday. Attached is a one-page
    overview of CalView, as well as the draft MOU, for members of the
    Librarians Group to review. If you think it would be helpful to have a
    human presence at your December meeting, just let me know. I could
    probably arrange to get there and give a brief presentation on CalView,
    the consortium, etc.
    Feel free to give me a call if you have any questions!
    Thanks,
    Amy
