Dear OSGeo community,<br>
<br>
OSGeo Community Sprint will come to Vienna (Austria) in November
2023 [1] as part of the Big Data from Space 2023 (BiDS) [2] event.
Come join us!<br>
<br>
When:<br>
<br>
- Mon 2023-11-06 09:00 - Thu 2023-11-09 12:00<br>
<br>
Where:<br>
<br>
- Venue: Austria Center Vienna [3] [15]<br>
<br>
<br>
Interested? So read more about why & where & when...<br>
<br>
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has a long tradition
of organizing code sprints for developers of Free and Open Source
GIS software.<br>
<br>
Since 2009, the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) [4] has
been organizing a yearly Code Sprint of the "C Tribe" OSGeo
projects, which has evolved into a full OSGeo Community Sprint and
all "Tribes" are included/welcome. Leading developers of projects
like GDAL, PostGIS, MapServer, GeoServer, GRASS, QGIS, PDAL,
pygeoapi and many more get together to discuss new ideas, hack,
decide, tackle large geospatial problems & to have fun.<br>
<br>
Our last face-to-face OSGeo Community Sprint was held with success
in Minnesota [5] in 2019.<br>
In 2020, due to the pandemic, we canceled the Athens code sprint
and organized a virtual code sprint [6].<br>
In 2021 and 2022 we organized code sprints during FOSS4G events
and joint code sprints with OGC and Apache Foundation.<br>
<br>
2023 marks the return of the OSGeo Community Sprint which will
return to Europe after Vienna (2014)[7], Paris (2016) [8] and Bonn
(2018)[9]. This makes it possible to embed European developers and
users. The tradition started in 2009 in Toronto [10]. Find a list
of the history of code sprints at [11].<br>
<br>
<br>
About BiDS<br>
------------------<br>
<br>
BiDS brings together key actors from industry, academia, EU
entities and government to reveal user needs, exchange ideas and
showcase latest technical solutions and applications touching all
aspects of space and big data technologies, providing a unique
opportunity to discuss and present the most recent innovations and
challenges encountered in the context of big data from space. The
2023 edition of BiDS will focus not only technologies enabling
insight and foresight inferable from big data from space.
Together, we want to emphasize how breakthrough space data driven
technologies impact on society’s grand challenges, such as climate
change and the green transition.<br>
<br>
The event, organized by the European Space Agency (ESA) [12]
together with the European Union Satellite Center (SatCen) [13]
and the Joint Research Center (JRC)[14], will take place at the
Austria Center Vienna [15], and counts with the support of the
partners FFG [16], Austria in Space [17] and the Federal Ministry
Republic of Austria [18].<br>
<br>
<br>
OSGeo Community Sprint 2023 in Vienna<br>
-----------------------------------------------------------------<br>
The international code sprint of the OSGeo will take place from 6
to 9 November 2023. We expect about 60 developers from all over
the world to come from various OSGeo projects [4].<br>
<br>
The code sprint will take place at Austria Center Vienna [3] [15],
as part of the Big Data from Space 2023 (BiDS) [2] event.<br>
<br>
<br>
Accommodations<br>
-----------------------------<br>
Working zones will be created for you in the dedicated room area.
A wide variety of drinks and snacks will be provided by OSGeo and
sponsors. Participation in the code sprint is free of charge. As a
participant, you are responsible for your own accommodation.<br>
<br>
Several hotels and apartments are close to the venue, many of
which are within walking distance.<br>
<br>
Registering for the OSGeo Community Sprint<br>
------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
In order to register for the OSGeo Community Sprint you need to
register for the BiDS event [2]. More information about Big Data
from Space and the registration link once opened, can be found
under bigdatafromspace2023.org [2].<br>
<br>
Afterwards, please don't forget to sign up in the OSGeo wiki at
our OSGeo Community Spint 2023 page:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Community_Sprint_2023#Participants">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Community_Sprint_2023#Participants</a><br>
<br>
This is an important step for planning of catering and
coordination.<br>
<br>
The OSGeo Community Sprint is open to all who wish to participate
in one or more projects. There is always plenty to do – it’s not
all about programming. Translation, documentation, feedback,
discussions, testing – all this is also important for projects so
everyone is cordially<br>
invited to attend the code sprint!<br>
<br>
The Community Sprint Organizing Team is looking forward to seeing
you there!<br>
<br>
If you have questions/comments/ideas please let us know.<br>
