[OSGeo-Discuss] 52°North Sensor Web Workshop: call for participation

[Ann Hitchcock]

Dear List,

We are currently organizing the 52°North Sensor Web Workshop 2015 (third edition). It will take place on Monday, 23rd of November 2015 and Tuesday 24th of November 2015 in Münster.

This workshop aims to bring together several users and developers of Sensor Web technology from different thematic domains and backgrounds. Similar to the last years, we expect to have very fruitful discussions on requirements, plans and ongoing developments in the field of Sensor Web technology. We invite you to participate!

Since November 23rd is a Monday, the official programme will start at 12:00. This should make it possible to avoid travelling on Sunday. The programme will end on Tuesday afternoon to allow travel in the evening. For those who arrive on Sunday evening, we will offer the opportunity to meet Monday morning for in-depth discussions on specific Sensor Web topics.

There will be no formal registration for the workshop. However, as we need to get a rough estimation of the number of participants, please add the information about your participation into this Doodle:

The workshop programme will have the following structure:

November 23rd
- Morning: Individual/in-depth discussion of specific topics
- Afternoon: Presentations by participants and overview presentation about Sensor Web community activities
- Evening: Dinner

November 24th
- Morning: Discussion of selected Sensor Web topics
- Afternoon: Discussion of a Sensor Web roadmap for the next year

For the afternoon session on the 23rd of November, we are looking for presentations of your work, achievements, requirements, needs, or plans. It would be great if you could prepare a 15 minutes presentation for this session. If you would like to give such a presentation, please send Dr. Simon Jirka (s.jirka at 52north.org) a short email with the title of your presentation. Please send an email in advance if you have any suggestions for topics that you would like to discuss during the workshop. We will try to consider this when finalising the workshop agenda.

Dinner on the 23rd will be in a nice and affordable restaurant in the city to socialise and have further discussions. However, please understand that we are not able to pick up your bill, as we do not require any workshop fees.

Finally, here is a list of hotels we could recommend for your stay. Please note: We would recommend to book your hotel rooms as soon as possible. For the nights 22nd/23rd and 23rd/24th November the hotel availability seems to be good. For the night 24th/25th there are still hotels rooms available, but several hotels are already fully booked.
