Helena has participated in the GRASS GIS development since 1991 and co-authored the first book on GRASS. She is an associate director for earth and environmental sciences applications at the Center for Geospatial Analytics at North Carolina State University (NCSU) in Raleigh, NC and she leads NCSU GeoForAll lab, one of the founding labs of the OSGeo research and education initiative. She published as the lead author or co-author over 100 publications on tools and applications of GRASS GIS. She co-developed methods for spatial interpolation, terrain analysis, hydrologic and erosion modeling and visualization. She received her PhD from the Slovak Technical University, Bratislava, Slovakia.  +
Focuses on vegetation science, alpine rivers, GIS, nature conservation and sustainable development in the Alps by using and promoting open data and open GIS software. Contributes to GRASS GIS on ML, by improvements for WinGRASS and coding some addons  +
Niklas Alt is an active member of FOSSGIS e.V (since 2016). He is currently employed at the Hessian Institute for Regional History in Marburg. He aims to foster the use and acceptance in historical academic research and public institutions on the federal, national and european level. His academic interest lies within the spatial humanities, using exlusively an OSGeo Software Stack and promoting the use of free and open software and a commitment to open historical geodata and open standards within this community. His work involves the reconstruction of historical boundaries, the georeferencing of historical maps and the reconstruction of historical spatial reference systems. To this end he is using PostGIS, GDAL, PROJ, QGIS, GRASS GIS and OpenLayers. He is coordinating an international data standardization group aiming to build an open data model to standardize the data structures in the Historical Town Atlas (HTA). The HTA aims to reconstruct the face of the premodern European cities using a critical cartographic edition of the first exact cadastral maps.  +
Hirofumi Hayashi (aka Hayashi) became an OSGeo Charter member in 2010, and is a longtime member of the Board of the OSGeo-Japan chapter. He is very active in the OSGeo-Japan chapter, and directly involved in several OSGeo projects including the ZOO Project (PSC member), OSGeo4W (committing enhancements to the installer, plus translations), GRASS (translations), and MapGuide Open Source. He also works very hard on the planning committee for each FOSS4G-Japan event each year. Hayashi is a Manager for a large engineering company in Osaka Japan (Applied Technology Co.), and yet still finds time to contribute to the vibrant OSGeo-Japan community. One of Hayashi's daughters, Natsuki, is the now-famous FOSS4G hand model, the star of OSGeo-Japan's mola mola video, created for the FOSS4G-Japan 2008 event.  +
I have been using and occasionally developing open-source software since the mid-1980s, and specifically FOSS4G since 2007. I currently teach occasional classes with FOSS4G and write documentation for using FOSS4G.  +
Mikhaïl Jean de Dieu Dotou Padonou is an environmental agronomist and expert in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, and spatial analysis.

Jean-Roc is an archaeologist specialized in the long-term conservation and exploitation of field data, this task is made much easier when using open data formats and free software. For this reason, he started to localize Quantum GIS and participate as board member of the french OSGeo chapter to the promotion and the diffusion of free and open GIS tools into the labs but also into the public administration.  +
Data and Geocoding teams at MapTiler.com, Founder of opengeolabs.cz and gismentors.cz  +
I work at the Stanford Libraries increasing access to geospatial data. I'm a co-founder of the GeoBlacklight and OpenGeoMetadata projects and work on a variety of other open source software projects.  +
Its a very good place with lots of historical monuments and a very developed and peaceful region.  +
James is a open source developer living in East London, currently working remotely for Addresscloud. He is the founder and lead maintainer of the Terra Draw project, a JavaScript library for drawing on web maps. The library is currently a OSGeo community project. He was the co-chair for FOSS4G UK in 2018 and has spoken at many national, European and global FOSS4G events over the years. He is currently on the Space Advisory board for OpenUK, a not-for-profit company which supports open source collaboration and open technologies within the United Kingdom.  +

I'm a Web Developer from Brussels. I work as employee in a small company from Laeken (Brussels) named GEO-6 since 2005. We mainly develop web applications using web mapping. At first we used our own MapServer (developed by a former employee - running under Windows to display MapInfo files) with our own JavaScript library to display and interact with the map. Yes, we totally reinvented the wheel ... not very clever I agree. In 2013, we finally decided to switch from Windows to Linux and switch from our custom map applications (difficult to maintain) to open-source solutions. We choose to use OSGeo MapServer, Leaflet JS Library and the power of GDAL library. Very (VERY) happy to have switched even if today I regret to have chosen Leaflet over OpenLayers (which seemed a little bit "old") and so currently (slowly) migrating from Leaflet to OpenLayers 3. I also work as Freelance Web Developer on my spare time. Also in web development but not "limited" to web mapping applications. I'm an OpenStreetMap member since 2012 but did my first real contribution last Saturday (not very proud about having waited 4 years to finally contribute) : http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/jbelien  +
