FOSS Geschäftsmodelle
Die Geschäftsmodelle rund um Freie und Open Source Software unterscheiden sich in eingien Punkten grundsätzlich von propritären Geschäftsmodellen. Deshalb werden auf dem Open Source Park nur Unternehmen zugelassen, die in diesem Punkt den Kriterien der Open Source Geopsatial Foundation entsprechen. Als Leitsatz kann festgestellt werden, dass am OSP nur Unternehmen und Organisationen beteiligt sind, in deren Geschäftsmodell Freie Software ein zentrales Element darstellt. Ein Schwerpunkt der hier ausstellenden Firmen ist die Förderung der Produktion und Nutzung von Freier und Open Source Software im Bereich Geoinformationsverarbeitung und aktives Engagement in der Open Source Geopsatial Foundation (OSGeo).
