OSGeo-fr, the french speaking OSGeo local chapter, is organizing on 10th of 
June 2013 the Francophone Open Source Geomatics day (aka FROG) in Paris inside 
French IGN building (at Saint-Mandé, close to Paris).

FROG is one day of conferences and meetings on several topics around OSGeo-fr 
projects and is a great opportunity to bring all together the community of 
users, developers or just curious of free software in geomatics.
The event is expected to attract around 150 people.

This meeting will share our experience by 25 mn conferences in two parallel 
sessions: one technical, dedicated to software develoment, the other will be 
more focused on practical use.

a specific context (major project, big data management, innovative project, 
etc.).? You are participating in a
free project linked to the OSGeo? So don't hesitate to give a presentation! 
You are warmly welcome!

presentation of their projects should submit an abstract before 15th of march
