> Barcelona, Spain. 15 January 2010.
>
>
> The Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial (FOSS4G) conference
> is pleased to announce a Call for Workshops and Tutorials for the 2010
> conference, being held September 6-9, 2010, in Barcelona, Spain.
>
> FOSS4G is the international "gathering of tribes" for open source
> geospatial communities. Users and developers are encouraged to present
> their latest projects and software to demonstrate the power of Open
> Source for system integration through a series of workshop sessions
> and tutorial presentations. Session participants should expect to see
> presentations on both geospatial open source and propriety software
> integration along with pure open source solutions.
>
>
> Workshops
> ----------------
>
> Workshops are expected to be 3 hour hands-on experiences with
> participants following along with the instructor, working directly
> with the application under discussion. All workshop rooms will be
> equipped with computers to support this vision. A projector will be
> provided for each computer room for use within a workshop. Instructors
> will need to discuss pre-installation requirements with the Conference
> Organising Committee if required.
>
> Workshops are expected to require considerable effort to create, with
> past experience showing that three days of preparation per hour of
> presentation are required to produce a high quality workshop.
> Additionally you will be expected to develop material for attendees to
> take home with them, such as handouts, workbook, CD-ROMs, etc. Due to
> the effort involved in producing and presenting a workshop,
> instructors will receive a single complementary registration to the
> conference for delivering a workshop.
>
> All workshop submissions will be considered, but particular interest
> will be shown in:
>
>  * Practical Introduction to FOSS4G software
>  * Integrating Open Source
>  * Spatial Data Infrastructure
>
>
> Tutorials
> ------------
>
> Tutorials are 90 minute sessions during the regular presentations
> portion of the conference. Tutorial rooms will not be equipped with
> computers. However, presenters may make use of delegate laptops and
> the FOSS4G LiveDVD.
>
> Preference will be given to hands-on tutorials.
>
> Any hands-on aspects to a tutorial will be the responsibility of the
> presenter and needs to be described in the tutorial description.
> Presenters making use of the LiveDVD will be expected to contribute to
> testing pre-releases to ensure material and software is properly
> installed. To discuss your requirements for LiveDVD, please contact
> the LiveDVD community:
> http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc#Contact_Us.
>
> All tutorial submissions will be considered, but particular interest
> will be shown in the following topics:
>
>  * Practical Introductions
>  * Interoperability
>  * Integration
>  * Performance tuning
>  * SDI services
>  * Mobile/phone applications
>
>

> FOSS4G 2010 Highlights
> ------------------------------------
>
> Workshops and Tutorials: Workshops and Tutorials allow presenters to
> lead attendees through applications, integration solutions, or other
> topics in an interactive environment. Half-day workshops (3 hours)
> will be held in computer rooms on September 6 (afternoon session) and
> 7 (morning session). Tutorials (90 minutes) will be held in standard
> presentation rooms, run concurrently with presentations on 7-9
> September.
>
> Presentations: The meat of the conference are it's presentations.
> Drawing on a huge community of local, regional and international
> experts we will discuss some of the most current and poignant topics
> in the industry today.
>
> Academic Track: The academic sessions, with paper publications and
> poster presentations, aims at bringing together researchers,
> developers, users and practitioners carrying out research and
> development in the geospatial and the free and open source fields and
> willing to share original and recent research developments and
> experiences. The academic track will act as an inventory of current
> research topics, with the main objective of promoting cooperative
> research between OSGeo developers and the academia.
>
> FOSS4G Live DVD: LiveDVDs, based on the Xubuntu operating system and
> including Geospatial Open Source Software, will be given to all
> delegates. Users can boot a Live DVD on their computer and trial the
> software without installing or effecting the existing system.
> http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc
>
> Installfest: The Installfest will give delegates the opportunity to
> meet in a common area and install a wide variety of FOSS software on
> their laptops, netbooks or any other system they care to bring in.
> Community members will assist with any troubles and provide help and
> insight into the software.
>
> Birds of a Feather: Rooms have been set aside for semi-organised
> meetings between like minded groups. Some prominent community
> initiatives started in prior FOSS4G Birds of a Feather sessions.
>
> Code Sprint: The day after the conference is reserved for the Hackers'
> Code Sprint. Hackers will be locked in a basement with lots of
> bandwidth, plugs and coffee. :)
