Request for support of the GRASS GIS Community Meeting 2024
Basic Information
The GRASS GIS community meeting will take place in June, 2024 in Prague. The event is organized by a group formed by GRASS GIS PSC. Contact person for budget questions is Vaclav Petras.
Audience
Based on previous events, we expect between 10 and 20 people for this meeting. The meeting is open to all users, supporters, contributors, power users and developers who want to make a meaningful contribution to the project. To maximize participation, we are raising money for travel and other expenses. Last year, a total of 17 people participated in the event in-person, additional 4 people participated remotely, and 2 leaders from other projects connected remotely as well.
Region
The event is global. The in-person meeting will take place in Prague, Czechia.
Project and Focus
Building on momentum from the 40th birthday meeting, we will continue the revisions of the maintenance processes and infrastructure - a process which highly benefits from the current maintainers being in one place (and time zone). Other topics which require highly synchronous collaboration will be included such as Markdown documentation and CMake build transitions. Other contributors are expected to enhance the collection of processing tools and their documentation. A press release gives an overview of last year's event.
Length
The meeting will last 6 days and includes a weekend to support participants who need to join outside of their work.
Venue
Meeting will be hosted by NC State European Center in Prague and funded by U.S. National Science Foundation, award 2303651.

Profit, Loss and Risk
There is no fee for participation and no profit is expected. Surplus money will go to the general GRASS budget, that is esp. the student mini grant program. Assuming the travel will be reimbursed to participants, the risk of canceled and not taken flights is taken by the potential participants. No or insufficient funding will lead to lower participation. Last year, most participants asked for and received travel support. Loss or failure to acquire the anticipated in-kind contributions will result in a significantly smaller event unless a sponsor steps in.
