Supporting the standpoint, expressed in the Address and comments of GIS-Association, ScanEx RDC recommends to establish a “Kosmosyomka” (Space Imaging) Association (prelim title) that will unite all interested market suppliers and customers. ScanEx Center also recommends to entitle this newly-born Association to organise the largest event in sphere of space imagery – International Conference and exhibition "Earth from Space – the Most Effective Solutions".

- Honoring GIS-Association and paying homage to their indisputable merits – says ScanEx General Director <b>V. Gershenzon</b>, - we have to recognise there is quite a wide range of issues, discussed within the frames of its activities (first of all, in cadastre, cartography, etc.) and the specifics of the space imagery as an industry. Nonetheless, I believe that GIS-Association with all its experience could become one of the active participants of the Association being established.

A positive experience of establishing different associations should be highlighted: in navigation, cadastre, cartography and so on. Consolidated and correct efforts of the “Kosmosyomka” Association members will enable to create a favorable, business-like information environment and to encourage making verified strategic decisions in legislation.

ScanEx RDC welcomes all the RS data suppliers and customers to discuss and establish the “Kosmosyomka” Association. Comments and recommendations can be addressed to i...@scanex.ru.
