The Marketing Committee is exploring additional outreach ideas to
reach everyone who cannot join us for FOSS4G this year.

Our first experiment is to collaborate with the MapScaping Podcast
(which you may already know from recent presentations on PostGIS,
PostgreSQL, QGIS, Qfield and other technologies). We are looking for
volunteers to do a podcast episode on additional OSGeo projects.

Projects wishing to take part please contact the marketing committee
mailing list, we have allocated a budget for 4 projects to be
represented.

Here are some words from Daniel and the MapScaping podcast:

My name is Daniel O’Donohue, I am a big fan and user of open source
geospatial software. I am also the host of The MapScaping Podcast
which is a weekly podcast for the geospatial community.

I would like to work with you to increase the awareness of open source
geospatial software. I have published episodes about Postgres/
Postgis, QGIS, QField and Input, R, and geospatial python which my
audience has responded well to. I would really like to promote and
introduce people to other open-source geospatial tools but producing
and publishing podcasts is not free and finding qualified guests to
talk about things like GeoNode and Geoserver is not easy.

Here is what my process for producing a podcast episode looks like:

Pre-interview
This is a 30-40 minute informal call where we can meet each other and
discuss topics and questions that might lead to interesting and
informative conversation for the audience. I use a software called
calendly which takes care of all of the time zone issues. I will send
you a link, you choose I time that suits you and we can go from there.
All the pre-interviews and interviews are recorded remotely using
software called cleanfeed. There is nothing to install, I will send
you a link and as long as you have a good microphone and a quiet place
we should be fine. This is also an opportunity for me to test your
audio and explain the structure of the interview and what the
recording process looks. Great audio quality and the ability to speak
clearly is a must!

If the pre-interview goes well we will schedule a time to record a
podcast episode. I like to schedule an hour for each interview, the
published episode will be somewhere between 30-40 minutes but by
scheduling an hour we have time to fix any technical issues and repeat
questions and answers if needed. The episode will typically be
published somewhere 2 - 4 weeks after being recorded.

If you are interested in being involved it is a good idea to listen to
an episode or two so you get a feel for the style and structure of the
podcast. I am really looking forward to working with you on this!
