Sandro Santilli was honoured with the 2022 Sol Katz Award, presented on 26 August 2022 at FOSS4G 2022 in Firenze, Italy. This was the 18th year of the award. Sandro (aka strk) has been contributing to OSGeo and open source geospatial software for over 20 years in various ways. He is the chair of the GEOS steering committee, a long term core contributor to PostGIS and QGIS, and a mentor to many. Sandro also shapes and maintains OSGeo infrastructure as a volunteer on the OSGeo systems administration committee. He is seen as a mentor and guide by his peers, always reminding us to look beyond the idea of software for free, and toward truly empowering the geospaital community through open source software: ?He is the nagging voice that reminds you that FOSS is about freedom to choose and putting the power of change in the users hands, and the dangers of settling for freeware instead of working toward a truly free alternative.? ? Regina Obe Sandro also reminds us that open software and the OSGeo community is built, and maintained, by people who contribute to it: ?I don?t care if you use Free Software. I care if you contribute to Free Software!? -Sandro Santilli, 2022 Sol Katz Award acceptance speech. About the award ---------------------- The Sol Katz Award for Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial (FOSS4G) is awarded annually by OSGeo to individuals who have demonstrated leadership in the FOSS4G community.

This minor version brings multiple corrections to the Metadata framework, in particular with Pleiades products. It also comes with an improvement to the DEM Handler that won?t read multiple time the same directory. This new behavior is described in the documentation. The NewFunctorFilter now has a default value for the radius. And with this release, PyOTB can finally unleash all it?s power. The release also fixes a behavior of Superimpose application, which writes RPC on final products if the initial product is not orthorectified, it also includes some documentation improvements and dead code removal. Note about known issues : Some PHR products metadata are missing when using the DIMAP driver leading to some errors when trying to orthorectify the product, see the RELEASE_NOTES for more details. We welcome your feedback and requests on OTB?s GitLab and if you find a bug, please report it ! Sincerely, The OTB team.
