<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Thanks Maria, Helena for sharing this excellent opportunity. I have added myself as volunteer for this . I think this is a great opportunity for OSGeo-France and OSGeo-Europe to have strong presence and activities promoting
OSGeo . There is huge interest in OSGeo and we need to make use of all opportunities. We will aim to have a strong education focus as well for this. I request colleagues in GeoForAll in Europe to plan ideas for this. This might be a great opportunity to plan
to bring together all GeoForAll Europe colleagues. As it is in 2020, we got enough time to plan this. All ideas welcome.</p>

<br>
<div>with ISPRS and these kind of activities are good examples of opportunities that the MoU covers.
<div>I have set up a wiki page where you can sign up if you are interested in helping out to organize an OSGeo Pavilion
<div>and a forum (or several fora) on all things Open-Geo at the ISPRS congress in Nice in 2020.</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please sign up on the wiki by June 1 (next Friday) so that we can see how much interest there is and we will prepare the answer to ISPRS congress organizers based on the interest from the community.</div>
<div>Here is the congress website again: <a href="http://www.isprs2020-nice.com/" class="m_1937799102246855533m_-4502155177263217640OWAAutoLink" id="m_1937799102246855533m_-4502155177263217640LPlnk50317" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">

<div>Dear All</div>
<div>probably many of you know ISPRS (<a href="http://www.isprs.org/" class="m_1937799102246855533m_-4502155177263217640OWAAutoLink" id="m_1937799102246855533m_-4502155177263217640LPlnk525834" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.isprs.org/</a>), which is the International Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, a Society with a long
history and which is our partner for instance in the GeoForAll initiative and in the Academic Track of FOSS4G 2018.</div>
<div>ISPRS has (among the others) also a Technical Commission on Spatial Information Science, whose topics are very close to ours. And they are very open to collaboration with OSGeo.</div>
<div>Last year Gerald Fenoy co-organised FOSS4G Europe in Paris with a good success.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Every four years ISPRS organises a big congress attracting thousand of people ( researchers, companies, tecnicians of administrations, etc). In 2020 it will be in Nice (France).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a href="http://www.isprs2020-nice.com/" class="m_1937799102246855533m_-4502155177263217640OWAAutoLink" id="m_1937799102246855533m_-4502155177263217640LPlnk577783" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.isprs2020-nice.com/</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was contacted by Nicolas Paparotidis (the Director of the Congress) who proposed OSGeo to co-organise, in the frame of the Congress, these two initiatives:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- a forum on Geo-Open-Science, Geo-Open-Source and Geo-Open-Data. The motivation of fora is to encourage strong exchanges between academia, institutions, industry, and users on important structuring subjects. The program built for the fora
must cover all aspects of the theme (integrating also policy issues) and not only scientific/tecnical aspects. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- a pavilion, where to group open-source companies to give them a stronger impact during the congress.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The two initiatives are really challenging and therefore, for answering positively, we need to have a team of people who are interested in collaborating on that. C<span>onsider please that there is a great curiosity and interest with
respect to open source and we have the occasion of showing the potential of our technologies in a new context. It is a challenge but, if well played, with many opportunities.</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please circulate this news and answer to this call if you are interested.</div>
<div>We will verify if there are the conditions (i.e. people/energy) for accepting this challenge and answer consequently to such an offer.</div>
<div>Best regards!</div>
