52°North is thrilled to announce that it has been chosen to be a mentoring organization for this year’s Google Summer of Code (GSoC)! GSoC is a global program that offers students stipends to write code for open source projects. Google pays the stipend recipient $ 5.000,- for 3 months of software development for 52°North this summer. A mentor from a 52°North partner organization supervises the student during this period.
52°North @ Firmenlauf
In spite of the dampness and cool temperatures, it was actually great running weather for “11th Active Sportshop Firmenlauf” this past Saturday. 52°North showed up with 3 teams for the 5k race. Once again we had some great results! Team 2 came in nineth (or tenth) overall, Team 1 came in 6th among the Women’s Teams and Team 3 finished with an honorable 48th place among the Mixed Teams (see results below)! Congrats to all!!!
ILWIS functionality in ArcMap
ILWIS functionality in ArcMap??? Yes, right.
The 52°North ILWIS and Geoprocessing Communities work close together to expose ILWIS functionality as WPS processes. A first prototype has just been completed. Witht the 52°North ArcMap WPS client any functionality exposed as WPS can be integrated in ArcMap-so ILWIS functionality can now be used to complement ESRI functionality in a hassle free way.

52N Days on Juist
Last week, 52°North staff braved the cold, circumvented icy waters and flew to the North Sea island Juist for our yearly retreat. We wracked our brains from thursday through staurday discussing and defining 52°North roadmaps and strategies. We successfully aligned 2012 strategies in the field of Sensor Web and Geoprocessing, as well as in new 52N innovation topics such as Web of Things, Linked Open Data and Augmented Reality. The charms of the local pubs influenced some intrinsically creative natures and resulted in some interesting App ideas! All in all it was a very informative, productive and constructive event. Unfortunately, we were not able to go for a walk in the tidal flats, but Heino our guide gave us a great presentation and converted most of us to nonclam eaters!
