Hi all,

A reminder that the deadline for submitting is **tonight**.

We already have a number of great proposals with presenters (often
from core contributors) on projects such as GRASS, GDAL, geopandas,
open streetmap, mapnik, boost.geometry and mysql. You will definitely
be in good company !

Kind Regards,
Johan

[OSGeo-Discuss] Two week to go before deadline CfP Geospatial DevRoom FOSDEM 2018 Brussels

2017-11-17 Thread Marc VLOEMANS 
Dear community,


A quick heads up, to submit your talk/workshop/other for this unique event.


FOSDEM is a free non-commercial event bringing together 8000+ open source
software developers and communities in Brussels, Belgium. Participation is
free of charge (donations welcome). The next edition will take place on 3-4
February 2018. For the 4th time there is a Geospatial devroom on Sunday
*4/2/2018*!

Geospatial technologies and mapping used to be specialist work. Nowadays
location and maps have become part of many projects/applications.

We welcome submissions about:
* Web & desktop GIS applications;
* Collaborative editing / versioning of geodata & metadata;
* Interoperable geospatial web services & specifications;
* Collection of data using sensors / UAVs / satellites;
* Geo-analytic algorithms / libraries;
* Geospatial extensions for classical databases (indexes, operations) &
dedicated databases;
* Big geodata, distributed & scalable GIS applications;
* Volunteered Geographic information - Crowdsourced geodata.

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR PROPOSAL FOR A TALK

Like to run a discussion, present your work, any other ideas? Submit your
proposal at:  https://fosdem.org/submit

time slots are indicative and will be assigned according to the timing of
