[OpenGeoscience] OSGeo / OpenPlanetary joint townhall @ EGU

["Peter Löwe"]

Hi Allesandro, hi all,

according to EGU, this is the scope of Townhalls:"At townhall meetings, new initiatives or decisions are announced to a larger audience, followed by an open discussion on the matter raised."

Your proposal appears to be fully compatible with this.

1+ by me.

best,
Peter

> I'm glad to inform you that we are formalizing a non-profit association for
> promoting data, tools, workflow sharing among planetary science community.
> The name of the association is OpenPlanetary [1] and has an international
> board of directors working in the field of planetary research. The use and
> promotion of Free Open Source software is a big part of our activity which
> has been mostly done within scientific workshops and congresses in the form
> of tutorials and hands-on sessions on tools and data access.
> 
> Since some geospatial software we actively use is promoted by OSGeo, we
> would like to have the chance to get OpenPlanetary and OpenGeocience/OSGeo
> known to each other.
> 
> Peter proposed the EGU Townhall session as a possible chance to start a
> discussion of possible synergies or coordinated activities. That would be a
> nice event for starting activities of OpenPlanetary outside of planetary
> science congresses.
