FOSS4G calls for workshops, presentations and academic papers
VerySpatial is happy to support FOSS4G 2014 (September 8-13 in Portland, OR) as a media sponsor. We are working to get an interview or two with the organizers over the next couple of months, but until then you should get to work preparing your presentation, workshop, or paper.
“The FOSS4G organizing committee calls for presentations, workshops and academic papers. FOSS4G, to be held September 8th-12th in Portland, Oregon, USA is the premier international conference on open source geospatial technologies. With two days of workshops followed by three days of presentations and academic papers, FOSS4G features a diversity of attendees and participants spanning academia, industry, and government.
Dr. Franz-Josef Behr and Dr. Barend Köbben have issued the call for academic papers.
The first two days of FOSS4G are half day workshops. Participants are invited to submit workshop proposals for audiences ranging from beginner to advanced users, with topics covering the FOSS4G stack from server to client and anywhere between. Read the detailed call for workshop proposals or submit directly. Workshop proposals are due by March 15th.
Presentations showcase some of the most interesting developments and uses of Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial. Read the details in the Call for Presentations.”
