We have a meeting in Como on 19-21 September for the Europa Challenge. This will be an annual challenge to the European university community to provide open source solutions serving the needs of the European community based on NASA open source technology, World Wind,http://goworldwind.org/

We would like to orient this challenge to produce software tools to support agricultural needs. Would you like to help us design the criteria for this.

I had contacted you earlier for help. We want applications built using World Wind virtual globe technology, www.goworldwind.org , that will support the open source ecology hardware serving agricultural interests,http://eurochallenge.como.polimi.it/

The idea is to build applications that help the hardware do its job. For this reason, we would like establish criteria to challenge the university community to build software (using World Wind) to make the open source ecology hardware more productive.

Maybe these can help you see what I am suggesting:

http://www.farmworks.com/products/officesoftware
http://www.farmworks.com/products/fieldsoftware
http://www.landmagic.com/
http://www.sstsoftware.com/products.htm

Do any of these look interesting? Or design your own criteria for what you need. This can then be proposed as a potential project. We are trying to help the university students better appreciate what the European community needs so they can build it,http://eurochallenge.como.polimi.it/
