FOSS4G 2016

FOSS4G is the annual global event of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo). Although widely recognized as the largest technical geospatial Open Source conference we call FOSS4G an «event» because it is far more than «just» a conference. A typical FOSS4G will include regular presentations and talks, but also code sprints, birds of a feather sessions, workshops, topic talks and of course social events spanning all nine days.

The FOSS4G conference focuses on Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial. Additionally to high level technical talks four key domain topics practically connect the software with communities from neighboring domains. The key topics in 2016 are:

• Open Data
• Remote Sensing for Earth Observation
• Land information
• Disaster Management

In 2016 you have the chance to become an active part of all this and more in Bonn, Germany!
