Subject: GISList: Automatic data recording
Dear all,
thanks to those who replied to my original email - if you didn't see
the
original its below. The 4 scenarios I listed were not necessarily
alternatives, but equally likely to occur i.e. data will be sent in via
all
four methods not just by one. If you know of anything similar pleas-we
let
me know
Many thanks
John

Hello !!!
This is one of the most original idea I have seen for the first time on
the gislist? and I congratulate you for such a genius thinking, this
type of activity is very much possible by establishing a R&D team with
some of the entrepreneurs or a corporations, anything done by school or
university may not find commercial value, I would like to invite people
of same interest to join us and make presentations as to what they want
and what they can achieve at what cost?
With best wishes,
Thanks & regards,
