Heather has administered the GIS systems and developed GIS software for a regional watershed management organisation in Germany since 2013, where she cares for about 100 scientists, engineers and field workers. Her fields of application encompass groundwater, stream networks, water treatment and sewage systems.
Heather's introduction to OSGeo and GIS came when she was hired to migrate her organisation from ESRI to QGIS. Through this she has built an expertise in guiding groups into new technologies with minimal disruption and has become a strong advocate for open source GIS. +
Msilikale Msilanga is a spatial planner by professional from Tanzania but have more experiences from Europe and Latin America based on the same field. He has been working at the World Bank since 2011 as the Geospatial consultant before he went to have his Masters for two years. Now he is back at the World Bank supporting the open data team and more mapping projects in Tanzania Zambia and Mozambique. For more than five years, he has been working with the local communities in Dar es salaam helping them to map their own areas using OSM. Through these maps which are mostly in the informal settlements, more issues facing the community has been identified and more projects have been identified one of them being Ramani Huria. He is currently a Co-chair for FOSS4G 2018 which will be conducted in Dar es Salaam in 2018. +

I'm a geographer and I love maps and spatial data. I am one of the coordinators of the Brazilian QGIS User Group where I participate in QGIS translation projects into Portuguese, I am active in social networks to help lusophone users find solutions to the problem they face in QGIS and give training and outreach presentations. FOSS4G tools in universities and research institutions.
I am a member of the Brazilian OpenStreetMap community, where I collaborate with the production of open spatial data in OSM and spreading the importance of open spatial data in the production of scientific knowledge and decision making. I write a blog and have a YouTube channel that provides step by step guides for producing maps and data cartography in QGIS.
Since I participated in FOSS4G Argentina in 2016, I have become more involved with the local communities of Brazil and Latin America, especially Argentina. I am part of the Geocast project, a Brazilian geotechnology channel that brings together several geotechnology professionals. I am ahead of Fortaleza Geoinquietos, a local initiative to build a strong regional geospatial community in northeastern Brazil.

Nyall has been a core developer with the QGIS project since 2013. During this time he has contributed over 5000 commits to the project, and today is one of the most active developers on the project. Nyall's contributions to QGIS cover a wide range of areas - from improvements to the map rendering and symbology engines, enhancements to labeling and print layout functionality, right through to optimisations of the
underlying spatial processing algorithms utilised by QGIS. He is dedicated to making QGIS a unique tool capable of creating cartographic effects which to date have not been available in GIS software applications.
Nyall is currently the proprietor and lead developer at North Road Consulting, an Australian spatial development consultancy which predominantly focus on investing in and promoting use of open source GIS applications. +
