[ESIP-all] Monday Updates: Winter Meeting Survey Results | Visioneers Next Monday | Around the Federation - Capability Survey, International Geological Congress

[Erin Robinson]

Hi All -

A few quick notes this week:

   - 2012 Winter Meeting Survey
Results<http://wiki.esipfed.org/images/4/43/ESIP_2012_Meeting_Evaluation_-_Summary_Report_-_ESIP_Winter_2012_Meeting_Evaluation_-60_%281%29.pdf>-
We had 58 responses of 175 attendees. Attendees felt the main benefits
of
   ESIP meetings were networking, professional development/training and idea
   exchange. It may also be of interest to look through the list of things
   people declared accomplished at the meeting and what they will be working
   on in the next six months (see full
report<http://wiki.esipfed.org/images/4/43/ESIP_2012_Meeting_Evaluation_-_Summary_Report_-_ESIP_Winter_2012_Meeting_Evaluation_-60_%281%29.pdf>
   ).

   - Visioneers <http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Visioneers> will meet
   next Monday, 2PM EDT.
Notes<http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Summer_2012_Meeting>have been
posted from the last call. We are working on an idea for the
   Summer Meeting theme, so if you have ideas add them to the wiki beforehand
   or join this call.
