terrestris still growing

5. May 2010

Who would have thought as much: 2 months ago the terrestris team was complemented by Christian Mayer and today we are happy to announce that another new team member has been found. Starting May 1st 2010 Mr. Johannes Weskamm joined our team for initially 2.5 days per week since he currently has another contract with the University Clinic in Cologne lasting until June 30th. After that Mr. Weskamm will work full-time for terrestris.

Johannes Weskamm studied geography, geology and cartography at the University of Cologne. Amongst others he has worked for professors Bareth and Fink at the University of Cologne. terrestris extends a warm welcome to Johannes and looks forward to the collaboration!
