Started with PAMAP GIS in 1992 with Council for Yukon First Nations, bounced around a few other GIS contracting for awhile, mostly for First Nations, and then landed with Yukon Government in 1998. Still there now, much to my surprise. Was heavily involved with Osgeo4W for a number of years as wiki janitor, mailing list mod, and sheparding on the `apt` commandline osgeo4w package manager. Last few years my Osgeo involvement is mostly just a regular ol' tool user, folded in where I can with the Esri stack. |

Micah works for the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and has been a user and supporter of open source geospatial software since the mid-2000's. Micah has worked to integrate GeoServer and GeoNode into NOAA geospatial data publishing workflows. He led a project to enable better multi-user, enterprise deployment for GeoServer with NOAA and OpenGeo in 2012, and contributed code to GeoNode to prototype a data discovery portal as an add on to the NOAA GeoServer hosting system. Since then, Micah has worked primarily in the open data field, supporting the NOAA Data Catalog (https://data.noaa.gov) and the Integrated Ocean Observing Systems (IOOS) Catalog (https://data.ioos.us). Micah currently works for the NOAA IOOS office helping manage the data publishing framework for IOOS' ocean observation and forecast data throughout the coastal United States, Pacific Islands and Great Lakes. |

I've been using Open Source GeoSpatial software since 2003, originally with TAB2TAB. In 2005 I setup Astun Technology with the goal of being the leading Open Source GeoSpatial business in the UK. Working as part of a wide community of developers and users has enriched Astun, so we want to put something back. Astun is committed to supporting the community whether through sponsorship of the OSGeo Foundation or providing support to local chapters such as OSGeo:UK and the events they organise such as the FOSS4G:UK conference and QGIS User Groups. I believe that the community needs to be well funded to be sustainable and in 2017 Astun contributed in excess of £10,000 to various Open Source projects as sponsorship and / or funding code development. Astun also contributed over 90 man days of our staff’s time in helping with events, code sprints, hacks and other activities. |
