New format of InfoGEO and InfoGNSS magazines
It is with great pleasure that we see that a new format of the InfoGEO and InfoGNSS magazines has been launched, which traditionally have been available in pdf format for download. The new format is under the service provided by CALAMEO for online browsing magazines, very practical for search and navigation functionalities.
This is available from issues 36 of InfoGEO and 65 of InfoGNSS, however we believe that in the future the previous editions can be read in the same way. The editorial and thematic content is the same, but not the sponsored content that includes advertisements and articles from companies in the geospatial sector, so the two new spaces are available offering a new advertising niche before about 50,000 subscribers that both magazines have.
Of course, these journals have a high level of penetration in the Brazilian market, for now we see it only in Portuguese, although we understand that the publications of MundoGEO has scope in Spanish and English.
InfoGEO has interesting articles, such as the coverage of the MundoGEO # Connect 2011 event held in Sao Paulo last June. Additionally, a tutorial on labeling with Google Map Maker, some Geomarketing and post-processing of raster data is striking.
In the case of IfoGNSS, the main article is the technical Cadastre. There is an interview with Hola Rollen, CEO of Hexagon Group, a company that gradually became a giant with acquisitions of companies such as Intergraph, Erdas, Leica and ViewServe.

We hope that this format will be well received by users, especially readers of mobile platforms.
In passing, we take the opportunity to remember that the third edition of FOSSGIS was announced in September, a new tabloid but which we believe has great potential with a fairly comprehensive and balanced approach. The second edition of Lidar News magazine has been launched in the Hispanic environment, which incidentally surprises us with an article on page 41 where Bentley Systems and AutoDesk are speaking in a joint work for Mobile LiDAR.
