conferences gather developers and users of Open Source
geospatial software from around the world to discuss new
directions, exciting implementations, and growing business
opportunities in this domain. Recent years have seen
substantial changes in the geospatial industry. One of those
changes has been the growth in maturity and adoption of Free
and Open Source solutions. In many cases organizations are
using a mixture of open and closed source solutions.<br>

of presentations will be based on the quality of the
submitted material, its interest for professional and
student audiences and also its consistency with the program.
The decision of the selection committee will be final and
binding. Committee members speak on their own behalf, their
choices do not reflect the position of their employer. The
Dutch and French coordinators of the program committee are
Johan Van de Wauw (NL) and Gaël Kruwialis (FR). We encourage
you to send us an email (<b><a
