Feedback from OSGeo presentation to WMO
- A WMO Task Team on Open Source Software (TT-OSS) has been formed and active since February 2025 to help further FOSS in WMO. The Terms of Reference can be found at [2].
- A key component of moving forward in TT-OSS is reviewing the current state of FOSS at various meteorological agencies, but also external FOSS organizations.
- Given the synergy and use of FOSS4G software in numerous WMO Member activities, a presentation on OSGeo would be valuable to understand the history, mandate and working arrangements of the organization.
- Angelos was invited to give a presentation to the WMO TT-OSS.
- WMO is very interested to have an MOU similar to what we have with ESA.
- Opportunity to revive the “Domain specific” category of OSGeo projects (used to be a category on OSGeoLive), since organizations are eager to contribute their open source projects.
