[Cs-club-l] [Cs-club-I] This Sunday BBQ at M-Section Park @ 1PM

Hello fellow CS Majors,

This is just a reminder that this Sunday at 1PM we will be having a kick off BBQ for the CS Club and WICS at M-Section Park.

We will be providing the Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, Buns, and paper products.

Please bring something to share with everyone, such as chips, or a dessert.

This will be a great opportunity to meet other majors and have a good time. I highly encourage everyone to come.

NOTE: The officers are paying for the provided food, so if you would like to give a donation to go towards those costs we would appreciate it. Any extra will go directly into the general funds for future events.

If you can't give a donation still please come and we will feed you!

Here are directions to the Park from Campus.

[Cs-club-l] Another NASA Position on Campus - CS students needed to help program a geospatial web-based tool for NASA-funded research

Hi fellow CS Students,

Dr. Clark sent me this email today. This is a different position than the one sent out from Dr. Cominsky last week. This is a great opportunity, and would look great on a resume. 

Good Luck!

Matt

--------------

The Center for Interdisciplinary Geospatial Analysis (CIGA) in the Geography Dept. has a new NASA research grant to update the functionality of its "geoweb" tool used for collecting land-cover reference data from Google Earth.  The tool is called the Virtual Interpretation of Earth Web-Interface Tool (VIEW-IT), described in this publication, http://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/3/3/601

Some parts of VIEW-IT were developed by past SSU CS undergraduates David Turover and Joseph Muller a couple of years ago.  

We are in need of one to two motivated and talented CS students that want paid work experience ($12/hr) to continue development of VIEW-IT.  A main goal is to make the system more robust and accessible for global crowd-sourcing of reference data needed in mapping land-cover from satellite and other remotely-sensed imagery.   Fig 1 in the publication explains the full suite of skills that are needed (JavaScript, PhP, SQL, CGI, maybe some python scripting).   Funding starts on October 1 and work could continue into next semester and the summer of 2013.

More background on the scope of the NASA grant funding this research can be found here:

Please contact Dr. Matthew Clark (aka "Mateo") by email if interested (matthew.clark@sonoma.edu).
