Hi guys,

Again, to nominate someone you need to send an email to the CRO, then
he (me) needs to confirm with the nominee his willing and only then,
forward the message here.

http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Membership_Process#Nominations

So as for now on this thread I need Milan confirmation (on or
off-list) to add him to the nominators list.

BTW I have a nice growing pile of mails on nominations that I'll
attend this evening, I beg for your patience :-)

Have fun.

 Dear CRO and OSGeo Community,

 as the nomination period for OSGeo Charter Member started right now
 [1], it's a honor for me to nominate Stephan Meißl [2].

 Stephan is a committer to MapServer [3] and also a member of the
 MapServer PSC [4].

 As well known in the OSGeo community, he has organized the wonderfull
 OSGeo Code Sprint 2014 [5] [6] in Vienna which was great step forward
 in community building between all the nice OSGeo projects.

 So I am convinced that Stephan will be very valuable OSGeo Charter Member.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Funded projects using FOSS4G tools with respect to water management

2014-07-23 Thread Mauricio Miranda
Hi everyone,

I've been invited to the 15th Water Web Summit [1] as an OSGeo
representative to talk about FOSS4G projects related to water management.

I'll talk about OSGeo and local communities, and I would like to show some
successful use cases.

I have been googling a lot and also asked help to Jeff and Jorge. However,
I want to be sure I won't miss any important project.

So... my question is: Do you know about a water project using FOSS4G I
shouldn't miss in my presentation?

Thanks,

Tools we developped and/or used :
QGIS, PostGIS, Spatialite, ROAM (mobile app), PostGIS/QGIS data versionning

We are also currently working on waste-water simulation coupling (QGIS-SWMM).

First of all, I want to thank you publicly for accepting this

with free software is always MUCH appreciated.

Thanks for replying Vincent, there were (at least) 3 talks on water
management at FOSS4G-Europe, I'm sure other projects will arise as
examples of good use of free software technologies on this area.

 Dear All,

 It is my great pleasure to nominate Jeremy Morley for OSGeo Charter 
 membership. I have known and worked with Jeremy for many years now and his 
 help and support was key for expanding OSGeo in the UK. He is the cochair of 
 OSGIS conference series and has been the co-chair of the very successful 
 FOSS4G 2013 at Nottingham.

 Jeremy is Theme Leader for Geospatial Science at the Nottingham Geospatial 
 Institute.  He has worked in the academic GIS sector since the mid-90s. 
 Jeremy has promoted and researched Open GIS standards (through the OGC TC 
 since 2000), data (UK Location Programme User Group) and software (hosted the 
 “EOGEO” workshops, predecessors to FOSS4G, in 2000  2004).  He has also been 
 actively giving training programs (good example is the very successful GIS 
 Open Source Summer School in Girona) , workshops, talks etc. He is also 
 leading  new  module on our MSc GIScience called  Geospatial Information 
 Services at  fully using OSGeoLive. This is a good example for other 
 universities to follow in the future for their Master, undergraduate programs 
 etc.

 I am surprised that Jeremy is not already a charter member and i am sure not 
 only the UK Chapter colleagues but also our Edu community will be happy to 
 see him as a charter member.

enthusiastic translator. He’s gotten involved in many translations and
had led the most of those translations including PostGIS[4],
GeoSever[5], QGIS[6].

BJ is also a prominent GIS SW developer who loves to share his
knowledge  experiences with others. He has carried out many
challenging GIS projects using open sources.[7] He is now developing
GeoStatistics QGIS Plug-in[8] and contributes much to Tadpole project,
an open source DB management tool.[9]

I believe that his enthusiasm, experiences and leadership will

Hi Mauri,

This is not exactly water  management, but I want to mention a new project
Catchment Area Treatment Plan. The GIS cell at OFSDP project  management
unit will be handling the data. We, at the GIS cell, are doing most of the
work using FOSS4G. The primary goal of OFSDP is improvement of degraded
forest, which obviously includes water management too. There was minimal
usage of available data for analysis and assessment until the FOSS4G tools
were introduced.

I'll provide more details if you are interested.

 Hi Mauri,

 This is not exactly water  management, but I want to mention a new project
 Catchment Area Treatment Plan. The GIS cell at OFSDP project  management
 unit will be handling the data. We, at the GIS cell, are doing most of the
 work using FOSS4G. The primary goal of OFSDP is improvement of degraded
 forest, which obviously includes water management too. There was minimal
 usage of available data for analysis and assessment until the FOSS4G tools
 were introduced.

 I'll provide more details if you are interested.

Dear OSGeo community,

I'd like to nominate Jukka Rahkonen, from Finland, for OSGeo charter
membership.

Jukka is one of the few people who belong to several PSCs of our OSGeo
projects, namely Geoserver since 2012 and GDAL since 2013 (and among the very
few to make the bridge between the Java and C/C++ tribes !)

As far as GDAL is concerned, Jukka is one of our most active power users since
many years. You've probably noticed him many times answering to questions from
other users on the mailing list, testing bleeding edge trunk or doing precise
bug reports. It was a pleasure for me to finally meet him in person at
Nottingham last year.

Jukka is also involved into other OSGeo (or related) communities such as
MapServer, TinyOWS or Spatialite, which gives him a quite broad vision in the
geospatial field.

Jukka also maintains Finnish translations for OpenJUMP and Kosmo GIS and has
given a workshop on GeoPackage in the Finnish OSGeo seminar this year.

Simon has been quite active in the Quebec Local Chapter since it was

Finally, Simon has been promoting the use of OSGeo software in his
work at Ministère de la Sécurité Publique, Spatialytics, MGeospatial

Even if he is not very visible at the international level, he is a

[OSGeo-Discuss] [Election 2014] Nomination for Iván Sánchez

2014-07-23 Thread Jorge Sanz
Hi all,

It's  a great honour to nominate Iván Sánchez[1][2] (Spaniard now
living in Norway). He is well known by usual FOSS4G attendants by his
funny musicals (i.e. [3]) but Iván is much much more than a passionate
geonerd. He is one of the main promoters of Open Data and
OpenStreetMap in Spain (in fact he's currently the -exiled- president
of the OSM.es association); he was for a period member of the Boards
of Directors of the OSM Foundation and has leaded many activities
around OSM and Open Data in Spain. He usually presents FOSS4G projects
on conferences and is also well remembered by the Cake Test for Open
Data (specially when he brings cakes to smaller-than-FOSS4G
conferences).

Iván is a great friend and I'm sure you'll agree he deserves joining
the Charter Membership.

Cheers
