Submission Deadline: 26.12.2021

FOSDEM is the largest free and open source developers meeting in Europe,
with 8000+ participants. It normally takes place in Brussels (Belgium).

FOSDEM 2021 will be Online. As in the last year we will have a
Geospatial devroom. The Geospatial devroom will be on Sunday 6 February
2022. In 2022 it will be our opportunity to bring our global community
to FOSDEM.

The geospatial devroom is the place to talk about the state of the art
of open, geo-related data, free and open source geospatial software and
its ecosystem. This includes standards and tools, e.g. spatial
databases, online mapping tools, geospatial services, used for
collecting, storing, delivering, analysing, and visualizing geodata.

We hope you will submit a talk or come around at FOSDEM 2022.
