workshop (RPC & Oskari) based on the FOSS4G Buchrest workshop material
provided by NSL-FI, which is so good! I even managed to make a map with the
workshop

- see here where we are going!

with you!

We still need ideas for presentations for at least for Tampere and Oulu
event, so give me a hint if you would like to show case some FOSS4G tools
or use cases in the meetups.

The meetups are arranged in cooperation with OSGeo Finland and Oskari Joint
Development Forum. Huge thanks to all who are making this happen!
