41. The 5th Scandinavian Research Conference On GIS Published by Jan Terje Bjørke, Department of surveying and mapping, The Norwegian Peter Fisher, Department of geography, University of Leicester, http://www.scangis.org/scangis95/

The 5th Scandinavian Research Conference on GIS Date: June 12-14, 1995 Venue: The Norwegian Institute of Technology, Trondheim, Norway. Conference Committee Kirsi Artimo, Finland Erland Jungert, Sweden Proceedings title: "ScanGIS'95, Proceedings of the 5th Scandinavian Research Conference on GIS, 12th - 14th June 1995, Trondheim, Norway". Proceedings ISBN: 82-993522-0-7. Pages: 329 (6+323). Comments: Proceedings foreword ScanGIS'95 The Scandinavian Research Conference on GIS (ScanGIS) is the premier research forum for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in Scandinavia. The first ScanGIS conference was arranged in Sweden in 1985, the second was held in Norway, the third took place in Denmark and the fourth was held in Finland in 1992. During the last conference it was asked : " do we need a ScanGIS conference in the modern European Scandinavia?". ScanGIS'92 did give a positive answer to this question, and I hope ScanGIS'95 will continue this positive tradition and be a fruitful meeting place for GIS researchers. Unlike most other GIS meetings, ScanGIS has been established to bring together a relative small group of interdisciplinary researchers who are working on the concepts for the next generation geographical information systems. For the first time, the conference was announced on Internet and most of the correspondence with the authors was on e- mail. Internet made it possible to announce ScanGIS'95 to a broad community of researchers, and I am very pleased to recognise the interest for ScanGIS'95 amoung GIS researchers in Scandinavia as well as outside Scandinavia.

Atlas of Oregon again wins prizes in international competition 'MAPS HAVE NEVER BEEN SO COOL'... Interactive 'Atlas of Oregon' Wins Two Top Prizes February 27, 2003 EUGENE-The "Atlas of Oregon CD-ROM" has been named winner of two top awards in this year's international competition conducted by the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping (ACSM). The University of Oregon's innovative digital atlas competed against the best maps and atlases in the world, including the new "National Geographic Family Reference Atlas." The Oregon atlas, created in the UO Geography Department's InfoGraphics Laboratory in collaboration with UO Press, was awarded Best of Show and Best of Category honors in the Book and Atlas division. The awards will be presented March 31 in Phoenix, Ariz., at a ceremony during the organization's annual international convention. The "Atlas of Oregon CD-ROM" is a two-disc compendium of information about the state's economy, culture, history and natural resources. The project's creative team, headed by InfoGraphics director James Meacham and lead designer Erik Steiner, re-imagined the bestselling, 300-page "Atlas of Oregon" print edition for easy access using a computer. The result has garnered international attention for its cutting-edge use of digital wizardry to present information in new and powerful ways. As a Chicago Tribune feature story put it, "Maps have never been so cool."

Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Several different types of workers are responsible for measuring and mapping the earth’s surface. Traditional land surveyors establish official land, air space, and water boundaries. They write descriptions of land for deeds, leases, and other legal documents; define airspace for airports; and measure construction and mineral sites. Other surveyors provide data relevant to the shape, contour, location, elevation, or dimension of land or land features. Cartographers compile geographic, political, and cultural information and prepare maps of large areas.

Volume 20 - Issue 13, June 21 - July 04, 2003 India's National Magazine from the publishers of THE HINDU Home Contents SPECIAL FEATURE: THE GREAT ARC A boost to survey and mapping Interview with Prof. V.S. Ramamurthy K. GAJENDRAN The cross-country survey and mapping carried out 200 years ago in India was a landmark event that provided the basis for all survey and mapping exercises in the country since then. The bicentennial celebration of the mega-scientific experiment, The Great Arc, is being utilised by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) of the Government of India to highlight the globally competitive position acquired by the Survey of India. Professor V.S. Ramamurthy , Secretary, Department of Science and Technology, shared with B.S. Padmanabhan his views on the significance of the event. Excerpts from the interview: Why is the survey that Col. William Lambton and his colleagues carried out in 1802 called The Great Arc? The surface of the earth is not flat. We sit on a large sphere. If you draw a line between two points on the earth it is not going to be a straight line but will be a distance measured over an arc. The distance will depend on the curvature or the exact surface profile of the earth.

They decide effective presentation of information and create digital maps and graphs using GIS software and related equipment. In many companies, GIS technicians gather land survey data and other topographical details needed to build the geographic databases. TASKS - 1) study aerial photographs and satellite images. 2) study ground surveys and reports to get information. 3) build and update digital databases. 4) plan the layout and content of maps. 5) make detailed drawings, often using a computer-aided design package. 6) alter the drawings where necessary. 7) make computer models of land areas. 8) may oversee the production of the map, including visiting the printer. 9) may provide quality assurance on the filmwork to be used to print the map. WORKPLACE COMPETENCIES - Geographic information systems (GIS) technicians should be accurate and precise, patient, self-disciplined and able to make good judgements. They should also be able to work well as part of a team, and be flexible and able to adapt to new technology.
