[OSGeo-Discuss] R: Fw: XXIVth ISPRS Congress in Nice, France (2020) and OSGeo

Wed Jun 12 22:16:33 PDT 2019

Dear Moritz,  looking at the wiki page, I see that there is an interest by the OSGeo Academic Community.  In my opinion, we can go ahead with the Forum (not with the OSGeo Pavilion because there are not volunteers for it). I will contact the Director of Congress and ask him more pieces of information about the Forum.
I will inform you as soon as I have news.
Many thanks!
Best regards
Maria

As a follow up to Maria’s call, as you probably know, we have a MoU
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/MOU_ISPRS with ISPRS and these kind of
activities are good examples of opportunities that the MoU covers. I
have set up a wiki page where you can sign up  if you are interested in
helping out to organize an OSGeo Pavilion and a forum (or several fora)
on all things Open-Geo at the ISPRS congress in Nice in 2020.
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGEO_at_ISPRS2020

Please sign up on the wiki by June 1 (next Friday) so that we can see
how much interest there is and we will prepare the answer to ISPRS
congress organizers based on the interest from the community. Here is
  the congress website again: http://www.isprs2020-nice.com/

Thank you all for supporting this excellent opportunity,

Helena
