Background
GITA is hired as the conference managers for FOSS4G 2011 and working with this GITA event gives OSGeo a chance to promote FOSS4G several months in advanced to a community that may be somewhat under-represented in OSGeo that is, the infrastructure/utility organisations.
Event Summary
It is estimated that 25-40 attendees per room, with space for up to 60.
Copy from the 2010 website:
- See the most diverse program on the latest geospatial solutions being applied at the most cutting edge infrastructure organizations
- Walk an exhibit floor that goes beyond technology to show true solutions and ways you can make the most of your existing systems
- Meet some of the fathers of the geospatial industry who are now putting their pioneering spirit to work with a new generation of geospatial leaders
Booth
- We have booth 410
- Exhibit floor schedule TBD
Presentations

There will be presentations through the event in our own OSGeo track. Details of times are coming but are spread across the event timeline (April 11-13th).
