Call for Participation!

A FOSS4G is a celebration of our global community and that doesn't happen without you! Geospatial technology is transforming our world and FOSS4G is the place for us to share and learn as a community.

As such, we would like to announce that our call for participation for FOSS4G 2018 is out and we invite you to submit!! We're looking for the very best that our community has to offer: From presentations on the latest technical developments, stories on how technology is transforming lives, how-to workshops, and the very best maps - FOSS4G 2018 in Dar es Salaam will be the place for hearing the very best that our community has to offer.

We are looking for a variety of different types of stories across a broad range of sectors and industries. Our program aims to cover the full breadth and depth of geospatial free and open source software as well as the application of OSGeo and FOSS4G technology.

FOSS4G is the annual global event of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo). Although widely recognized as the largest technical geospatial Open Source conference we call FOSS4G an "event" because it is far more than "just" a conference. A typical FOSS4G will include regular presentations and talks, but also code sprints, birds of a feather sessions, workshops, topic talks and of course social events.
