/(For those new to CUGOS or curious about what the “Fall Fling” is, read
on below.)/
The *Cascadia Users of Geospatial Open Source (CUGOS)* was founded in
2007 and serves as the Cascadia Chapter
<http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Cascadia> of the OSGeo Foundation
<http://www.osgeo.org/>. We are a non-profit community of open source
GIS enthusiasts — from students to professionals, from academia to
industry, and including active OSGeo contributors (board members,
charter members, and project participants).
CUGOS provides a space to share work, exchange ideas, and celebrate the
power of open source geospatial tools. Learn more:

This year’s *Fall Fling* will be a one-day, low-cost event bringing
together academics, professionals, students, and enthusiasts for a full
day of presentations on open source geospatial tools and open data in
and beyond the Puget Sound region. Talks will cover projects like QGIS,
PostGIS, MapServer, GDAL/OGR, OpenLayers, and more (see also: OSGeo
projects
<https://www.osgeo.org/projects/><https://www.osgeo.org/projects/>Â )
While we’re still building the program, you can get a taste of what to
expect by checking out schedules from our previous Fling events:
