Victoria Rautenbach

Pretoria, South Africa

victoria dot rautenbach at gmail dot com



It is our honour to nominate Victoria Rautenbach for the OSGeo Board of

Directors.



Many will know of Victoria’s effort and passion through several OSGeo

educational activities, where she helps young students and young

professionals become introduced to the OSGeo community of projects. She

is both an administrator and mentor for this year’s Google Code-in

contest (working with pre-university OSGeo students aged 13-17), and she

has also been a mentor for the Google Summer of Code the past years

(working with university OSGeo students).  She also helped with the UN

OpenGIS initiative as well.



For her day job Victoria Rautenbach is a senior lecturer in the

Department of Geography, Geoinformatics and Meteorology at the

University of Pretoria, South Africa.



She is a member of the ICA-OSGeo lab at the University of Pretoria since

its inception in 2012. She is very passionate about the use of open

source in education and also the increased use of open source in

developing countries. She teaches at the University of Pretoria and

makes use of open source GIS products in all the Geoinformatics modules

that she teaches.



She has organized a number of OpenStreetMap mapathons and arranged

student team participation in open data quests in South Africa.



Victoria would be a great asset to have on the Board. Please welcome her

onto the OSGeo Board of Directors.
