[OSGeo-Announce] Announcing FOSS4G-Europe 2015 (Como, Italy)

[Anne Ghisla]

We are proud to announce the second Edition of the FOSS4G (Free and
Open Source For Geospatial) Europe Conference.

The Conference aims to bring together FOSS4G users and developers 
worldwide and foster closer interactions with and amongst European 
communities in order to share ideas for improving geodata, software and 
applications, openness, and availability.

It will be held at Politecnico di Milano 
(http://www.polo-como.polimi.it/en/), Como (Italy),  from July 14 
through 17, 2015.

A one day of workshops precedes the conference (13 July 2015) and the 
code sprint closes the event (18 July 2015).

Besides the traditional Academic Track (one day track), three special 
Tracks on FOSS4G for water resources (one day track), OpenGeodata (half 
day track) and FOSS4G for Libraries (half day track) will be organized.

A meeting of the Labs involved in the GeoForAll 
(http://www.geoforall.org/) initiative will take place.

A mapping party for celebrating the International Map Year 
(http://internationalmapyear.org/) will be organized together with ICA 
and other Associations.

Last but not least, the winners of the NASA Worldwind Europe Challenge 
2015 (http://eurochallenge.como.polimi.it/) will present their 
innovative apps to the public.

This is just the beginning. Stay tuned: website and more information 
available soon.
