[OKGIS] Opening Call for Nominations - MAGIC 2008 Consortium Awards

[Shellie Willoughby]

Greetings all,

 

The Mid-America Geographic Information Consortium (MAGIC) asks your help
to identify those in the GIS community doing great things.  We're sure
you realize how important it is for the greater GIS community to
properly recognize the outstanding performers in the categories of - 

Outstanding Contribution in GIS Coordination:

Nominees have demonstrated outstanding contributions to GIS Coordination
benefiting their community in the MidAmerica region during the past two
years. Contributions may have been through leadership, technical
innovation or regional consensus building. 

Outstanding Contribution in GIS Service:

Nominees have demonstrated outstanding contributions to GIS Service
benefiting their community in the MidAmerica region during the past two
years. Contributions may have been through education, outreach,
training, applications and projects or by successfully accomplishing
grants that benefit their communities. 

Outstanding Contribution in GIS Innovation:

Nominees have demonstrated an outstanding innovation using GIS
technologies in the MidAmerica region during the past two years.
Contributions may have been through applications or projects that
reflect creative utilization of GIS. 

MAGIC will honor such people with an award to be presented during the
beginning plenary session of the April 22nd, 2008 Symposium in Kansas
City. 

Taking the time to recognize their accomplishments honors not only their
efforts but those of their state and co-workers as well. 

 

All we ask is that you take a few minutes to go to:

 

http://magicweb.kgs.ku.edu/magic/symposiums/2008/awards.cfm

 

The nomination form is web based and very easily completed.  You may
make more than one nomination if you so choose. More than one nomination
would be greatly appreciated and would facilitate a wider range of
choices for the MAGIC member state's to make selections from.  In
accordance with new awards procedures implemented for the 2006
Consortium Awards - each state's MAGIC director will receive the entire
nomination portfolio and decide how their state will determine their
choice for awardees in each of the three categories.  Each state's
determinations will be reported to the MAGIC Awards sub-committee and
combined to establish an overall winner in each category.  The short
version is that each state will determine a winner in each category from
amongst all the nominees for that category.

 

Nominations will close at noon - December 1st, 2007.

 

If, for some reason, the nominations page is not available, please reply
accordingly.

 

Thank so much for your time!

 

Mark
