About Slashgeo

Slashgeo As of November 2008, Slashgeo.org has over 1,800 registered members, about 35,000 daily hits, reaching thousands of geoprofessionals every day.

Our Story


Slashgeo is a bridge across space and time to gather the community of the geospatially interested.

Slashgeo wants to be the best user-friendly and community-driven online resource for news and discussions about GIS, Remote Sensing and everything geospatial.

Slashgeo is open. Free to read. Free for anyone to share thoughts and ideas. Its content comes from the users, you. Slashgeo is slash-based, meaning the content is filtered by members so only the most valuable tidbits reach the casual reader.

Slashgeo is a dream come true. It is managed by Spatial Enlightenment, an independent registered non-profit organization. It is mostly driven by voluntary work. Historically, Slashgeo is the sibling of Applied-GIS-RS, a non-technical international mailing list that we created in summer 2002 that has more than a thousand members. In December 2005, three months after its launch, Slashgeo.org came to replace SlashGISRS.org, our former name.

We hope you benefit from our efforts and participate in making Slashgeo an efficient tool.
