Welcome to the Third Irish OSGeo Symposium 2019 (OSGeoIE 2019)
Our Symposium
The Irish Local Chapter of OSGeo are delighted to announce their 3rd National Symposium at the Metropole Hotel in Cork City, Ireland on Thursday, 11th April 2019. The event is open to anyone. The symposium will provide a relaxed and stimulating environment to learn about OSGeo, meet people with similar interest in OSGeo and FOSS4G, and learn new skills in the workshops.
Symposium Keynote Speaker
We are delighted to announce that our Keynote for OSGeoIE 2019 will be Mr. Martin Høgh (Twitter). Martin is an open source code, urban planner and founder of the MapCentia company in Denmark and developer of GC2 and Vidi. The GC2/Vidi framework helps you build a spatial data infrastructure quickly and easily. This framework is powered using open source components and facilitates the deployment of PostGIS, MapServer, QGIS Server, MapCache, Elasticsearch, GDAL/ogr2ogr while Vidi is described as 'a modern take on browser GIS'. It is the front-end client for GC2. Martin will also give a workshop on GC2 in the afternoon.

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS
All delegates will be provided with an OSGeo Live Bootable USB Key containing a fully operational OSGeo Live distribution. Delegates are required to bring their own laptops. This is a Bring Your Own Device event. The descriptions of the workshops are provided below. Delegates should check before the Symposium if their laptops can be booted up from a USB key. In some cases work laptops from organisations and companies have this feature disabled for security reasons. Delegates should check with their IT support teams if their laptops can allow booting from a USB key. There will be no laptops available at the workshop(s)
At registration, in the morning of the event, you can sign up for the workshop of your choice.
| WORKSHOP #1 TITLE | Working with GC2/Vidi (build a spatial data infrastructure quickly and easily) |
|---|---|
| Workshop Leader | Martin Høgh, Mapcentia |
| Proposed software | GC2/Vidi can easily be installed on Windows (pro), Mac and Linux using Docker. Delegates can also use the Cloud Service which will require no software installation except an up-to-date working web browser. |
| Workshop objectives |
The GC2/Vidi framework helps you build a spatial data infrastructure quickly and easily.
|
| Proposed dataset(s) to be used (if applicable) | Data provided at the workshop |
| Level (Newbie/Intermediate/Advanced) | (Newbie) The GC2/Vidi framework will be introduced at a newbie/starter level. |
| Pre-requisites (if applicable) | You can use the OSGeo Live Bootable USB key. You can install GC2/Vidi on your laptop if you are permitted to install applications. You can also use the web-based cloud service which requires no installation. |
| WORKSHOP #2 TITLE | Geospatial Python |
|---|---|
| Workshop Leader | Joao Porto Periera, Coillte |
| Proposed software | OSGeoLive (Python, GDAL, Numpy, Matplotlib, Jupyter, QGIS) (then visualize results in QGIS) |
| Workshop objectives |
The primary scope of this workshop is to introduce python as a tool for image processing employing OSGeo geospatial libraries. By the end of this workshop, attendees will be able to:
|
| Proposed dataset(s) to be used (if applicable) | Data provided at the workshop |
| Level (Newbie/Intermediate/Advanced) | (Newbie to Intermediate) Some basic working knowledge of Python is assumed. |
