<p class="MsoNormal">You are receiving this email because you are signed up to receive information regarding the Elevation Framework Implementation Team via the Elevation FIT list serve. I don’t believe this team has met in a while and it is currently without
a designated leader. There is a FIT Lead nomination process that I am following to fill current FIT lead vacancies. To that end, we have received a nomination for a new Elevation FIT leader: Robert Hairston-Porter.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here’s a little blurb about Robert: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i>I have been working as a remote sensing and geohazard analyst at DOGAMI since 2015, and I currently help lead/manage the Oregon Lidar Consortium at DOGAMI. My educational background is in geology and remote sensing/GIS, and I currently
getting more involved in UAS technology. My reasoning for joining the E-FIT group is to continue the legacy of obtaining and providing high-resolution elevation data for the State of Oregon and to help make Oregon the premier state for geospatial data and
programs.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are receiving this email, it is important that you take 30 seconds to vote Yes/No for Robert to be the new Elevation FIT leader. I need at least 2/3 of the listserve members to vote. Please use this survey monkey link to
<b>cast your vote by this Friday, January 7<sup>th</sup></b>: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MPMHQF3">https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MPMHQF3</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If 2/3 of the list serve vote to approve Robert, I will ask OGIC to endorse him as the new Elevation FIT lead at the next OGIC meeting. If we don’t get a successful vote, then I will return to this group for discussion and new nominations.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
