> Dear colleagues,
>
> The US National Science Foundation (NSF) has funded a project
> (http://gsi.cigi.illinois.edu <http://gsi.cigi.illinois.edu/>) to
> conceptualize a national Geospatial Software Institute (GSI) as a long-term
> hub of excellence in software infrastructure for serving diverse research and
> education communities. To forward the strong momentum gained from two
> successful workshops, the third workshop will take place in the Washington DC
> area on January 27-29, 2019. January 27th is intended for an ice-breaking
> event on the evening so that most participants will be ready for the morning
> program on January 28th. Dr. Manish Parashar, the Director of the NSF’s
> Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (OAC) will give the opening keynote on
> the morning of January 28th. We plan to wrap up the workshop by 1pm, EDT on
> January 29th.
>
> We are inviting position papers: http://gsi.cigi.illinois.edu/workshop3/
> <http://gsi.cigi.illinois.edu/workshop3/> due on October 31, 2018, and look
> forward to your submissions. If your position paper is selected, you will
> receive NSF travel support to attend the workshop. Your help for spreading
> the word is greatly appreciated.
