On the 6th of July, 2006, the first international SAGA GIS User and
developer meeting will be held at the AGIT Symposium in Salzburg.

SAGA (System for Automated Geoscientific Analyses) is a fast-spreading
Open-source GIS software, with a special "Application Programming
Interface" (API) for geographic data processing and a user-friendly
Graphical Interface. SAGA GIS supports raster data (e.g. digital
terrain models, satellite images), vector data, and tables. The global
development process yields a vast amount of application opportunities
and an ever-growing number of sets of geoscientific methods and
analysis tools, bundled in exchangeable Module Libraries.

The SAGA User Group e.V. (www.saga-gis.org) invites SAGA GIS users,
developers and collaborators, as well as prospective new users and
interested scientists, to attend the first international SAGA GIS User
Meeting.
Call for speeches

The SAGA User Group e.V. would like to invite you for participation and
speeches. Appropriate topics are:

* The role of open source GIS in geosciences.
* SAGA GIS in education.
* SAGA GIS in applied research.
* SAGA GIS in practice.

The deadline for submitting a headline and/or an abstract of your
presentation is February 28th, 2006. Abstracts should be not longer
then 1200 characters.

Submit abstracts to: user_meeting@saga-gis.org
Call for papers

In this context, we are planning to publish a collection of scientific
articles, dealing with different aspects of SAGA GIS and its
application opportunities. We are thinking of a collection of 10 to 15
articles, published in the 'G=F6ttinger Geographische Abhandlungen -
GGA'. This GGA special issue Volume "SAGA GIS Analysis and
Application" will be hand out to the participants of the AGIT 2006 in
July 2006 in Salzburg and to all relevant geographical libraries in
Germany. However, the preparation of the GGA volume by the publisher
will take about 8 weeks, so we have to establish a deadline for paper
submission not later than early may.

Considering this, we would be very pleased if you are interested in
submitting a paper. Each publication should be not longer than 12 pages
(including all tables and figures). The page size of the GGA is 12.0 cm
x 19.5 cm (Times New Roman, 10 pt). If necessary, colored artwork can
be accepted. The submission of an article can be independent from the
speeches.

Submit abstracts to: user_meeting@saga-gis.org
Call for Sponsoring

You can maintain the "First international SAGA GIS User meeting" by
sponsoring or by advertising in the G=F6ttinger Geographische
Abhandlungen (GGA) special issue Volume: "SAGA GIS Analysis and
Application".
