QGIS at Malaysia GeoSpatial Forum, 2012

Sekali lagi saya telah mempromosikan Open Source GIS, khususnya Quantum GIS, kali ni di Malaysia GeoSpatial Forum, Melaka pada 6-7.3.2012. Saya percaya ianya dihadiri oleh peserta-peserta dari sektor awam dan swasta serta dari Malaysia Barat dan Timur. Kertas saya menyentuh pasal pembangunan QGIS di jabatan saya dari dahulu ke masa depan dan adalah versi panjang bagi artikel Kajian Kes yang di muat naik pada Laman web QGIS. Masa yang diberi cuma 15 mins bagaimana bilangan slide adalah lebih kurang 60 maka terpaksalah dipercepatkan taklimat. Berita baik bagi QGIS yang Puan Tan King Ing, Pengerusi dan Penolong Pengarah dari MAMPU, Jabatan Perdana Menteri berkata sehingga kini  Quantum GIS digunapakai oleh sebanyak 38 agensi awam.

QGIS at Malaysia GeoSpatial Forum, 2012

I did my part again promoting Open Source GIS, specifically, Quantum GIS, this time at the Malaysia GeoSpatial Forum held at Malacca on 6-7.3.2012. I noted it was attended by participants from both public and private sector and from both West and East Malaysia. My paper touched on the past, present and future development of QGIS at my department which was really an expanded version of my Case Study article that got uploaded at the QGIS home page. The time allocated was only 15mins but I had just under 60 slides to present so my talk was presented in full throttle. The good news for QGIS which Madam Tan King Ing, the chairperson and Deputy Director from MAMPU of the Prime Minsiter's Department pointed out that so far Quantum GIS has already been adopted by 38 public agencies.
