First international SAGA GIS User meeting: Program

Dear SAGA GIS User,

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.  
 
Register online under http://www.saga-gis.org .
