The Organising Committee would like to remind all interested presenters to submit their abstracts for the Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial conference (FOSS4G), being held in Sydney, Australia October 20-23.
So, get those abstracts in and secure your presentation slot at the conference. Presentations are open to all and comprises a 30 minute slot which includes hand-over, introductions and 5 minutes for questions. Presentations will be selected which have a strong "Open Geospatial" theme to them. We are keen to hear about your experiences, both technical and non technical. While the technology is a key part of the conference, in 2009 we are very keen to have a good selection of case studies and business case type presentations. How did you build the business case for FOSS4G and how has the technology made a difference to your business or organisation?
Workshops and tutorials have been finalised and descriptions are now online at:
