BIDS23

The OSGeo Community Sprint 2023 will be hosted by the Big Data from Space 2023 (BiDS) event.

BiDS brings together key actors from industry, academia, EU entities and government to reveal user needs, exchange ideas and showcase latest technical solutions and applications touching all aspects of space and big data technologies, providing a unique opportunity to discuss and present the most recent innovations and challenges encountered in the context of big data from space. The 2023 edition of BiDS will focus not only technologies enabling insight and foresight inferable from big data from space. Together, we want to emphasize how breakthrough space data driven technologies impact on society’s grand challenges, such as climate change and the green transition.

The event, organized by the European Space Agency (ESA) together with the European Union Satellite Center (SatCen) and the Joint Research Center (JRC), will take place at the Austria Center Vienna, and counts with the support of the partners FFG, Austria in Space and the Federal Ministry Republic of Austria.

Project Plans

(i.e what do you wish/want/plan to work on during the sprint ?)

• OSGeoLive:
  • Work towards 16.0 release

• Pangeo community:
  • Pangeo project ideas, incl. Alexander Kmoch & DGGS

• STAC BoF / European Community Show of Hands:
  • We (EOX) would like to better get to know the European scene of STAC users and contributors. For this reason we'd like to organize a Birds of a Feather session, where we talk about the use and development of STAC specification, tools and resources. If there is a reasonable interest, we could expand this to a session actually dedicated towards actual work on STAC related items.

Sponsoring

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has a long tradition of organizing code sprints for developers of Open Source GIS software. (https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Code_Sprints).

An international community/code sprint for OSGeo will take place Nov 6-9, 2023.

We expect about 80 developers from all over the world to come from various OSGeo projects. Whether desktop application, geospatial library, metadata catalog or web mapping: be sure to find products in the list that you use. The sprint is also an opportunity for your developers to meet with the core developers of the projects, get a deeper insight into the software and participate in the development.

This years' sprint will take place in Vienna and will be hosted by Big Data From Space '23 and organized by members of the local OSGeo chapter.

In addition to the costs of providing the technical infrastructure and space, food and drink for the developers represents the main cost. Morning/afternoon meals and drinks during the day are planned. In addition, we hope to provide several evening meals and social events.

In order to cover these costs we would be overjoyed to accept offers of sponsorship!

What we can offer:

• Your logo on top of the community sprint website as well as on all official documents used during the sprint
• Acknowledgement in all sprint related emails
• Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (remember that feature you wanted?)

Our sponsorship levels:

• Gold: >= 2500 USD
• Silver: 1500 USD
• Bronze: 750 USD

So...

• get your company talking to the top project developers.
• encourage your GIS developers to take advantage of this opportunity, there is no better opportunity to learn!
• support the software you use - you benefit immediately.

Thank you very much!
