Dear Open Geoscience list,<br>
<br>
the OSGeo Annual General Meeting 2022 is scheduled as a virtual meeting during FOSS4G 2022 in Florence.<br>
<br>
Details here: <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Annual_General_Meeting_2022" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Annual_General_Meeting_2022</a><br>
<br>
For this we need to create a slide and record a 1 minute video. The deadline for this is August 8.<br>
<br>
For activities, there was OSGeo involvement at the EGU hybrind conference, supporting the Data Help Desk organised by ESIP.<br>
Details here: <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/EGU_DataHelpDesk_2022" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/EGU_DataHelpDesk_2022</a> (todo: add more lessons learned)<br>
<br>
It might be interesting to use the Open Geoscience presentation also as a "innovation radar" to highlight crosscuttinh topics which are relevant for multiple OSGeo projects:<br>
<br>
Regarding the adoption of persistant identificators (DOI), there was a massive push among OSGro projects to register both Concept DOI and Version DOI, which are already being used in scientific publications (<a href="https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-53125-6_30" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-53125-6_30</a> -> check the reference section!). Overview for DOI for OSgeo software repositories here: <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/DOI" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/DOI</a><br>
<br>
Further, TIB Hannover (German National Library for Science and Technology) has introduced DOI for series of videos, including the "series" for each FOSS4G conference. This is a very useful feature, as this gives us aggregated video lists for each conference. The TIB wiki page already uses this mechanism - clicking on a particular FOSS4G reference will open the corresponding series DOI: <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/TIB#FOSS4G_Conferences" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/TIB#FOSS4G_Conferences</a><br>
<br>
TIB now also provides all metadata for a FOSS4G conference video series as Linked Open Data in multiple formats (TRDF, Dublin Core, etc.). This might become a very interesting capability for OSGeo in the near future for information mining.<br>
<br>
Are there any other events, like workshops or reach out activities, that should be mentioned at the AGM ?<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Peter<br>
