Message-ID: Morning all, After the success of FOSS4G:UK 2025 in Leeds, with 180 delegates, over 50 talks and workshops and a ?6,000 surplus distributed to open source projects, the OSGeo:UK committee would like to repeat the event in 2026 at the same venue. To make this happen we'll need a local organising committee (LOC) - would you be willing to step up? We are hoping to stage the international event in Bristol in 2027 - so a number of people who might otherwise be involved will be busy. At least a couple of the 2025 LOC should be available for 2026, but they will need help with gathering sponsorship, organising ticketing, managing the programme, publicising the event and organising social events - even if you not been involved before, this would be a great opportunity to work on an established event and be part of making it happen If you're interested, drop an email to osgeouk at gmail.com or contact a member of the committee - we hope to get a group together in the next week or two and organise a kick-off call to get things under way. While we're here, a reminder about our 2-minute member survey - please fill it in if you haven't already. And if you have, and have already said you'd be interested in organising FOSS4G:UK 2026, please get in touch - the survey is anonymous so we don't know who you are! many thanks Ant Scott Secretary, OSGeo:UK -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

My point with this was GeoMob happened only 3 times last year and I could only attend one. So it's just increasing frequency of a similar event.

More details below, and any questions, please email me nick at nickbearman.com. Introduction to QGIS: Understanding and Presenting Spatial Data ===================================================== In this two part introductory course we will give you an overview on how GIS works, and what we can and can?t do with spatial data. We assume no prior knowledge of GIS and will explain how to get data into the GIS as well as how to produce maps using your own data. This course requires no prior knowledge of GIS or spatial data. A level of basic computer experience is required; such as using websites, Word and saving & moving files. Tue 24th and Wed 25th Feb 2026, 10am ? 1pm (UK/London), online, NCRM, NEXT WEEK, https://www.ncrm.ac.uk/training/show.php?article=14368 ?I love having a workbook to go through, it?s how I learn best. Also, perfect balance between presentation and practical work.? Harriet Ann Patrick, PhD Researcher, University of Sheffield Advanced QGIS: Spatial Analysis =========================== This advanced two part course will develop your skills of using spatial data, including collating data from a variety of sources including XY coordinate data and address or postcode based data. We will also cover using spatial overlays, point-in-polygon analysis and spatial joins. This course can follow-on from the Introduction to QGIS course above, or be run independently if the participants have some previous knowledge of QGIS and spatial data. Tue 3rd and Wed 4th Mar 2026, 10am ? 1pm (UK/London), online, NCRM, https://www.ncrm.ac.uk/training/show.php?article=14369 ?The whole course has been fantastic, thanks for making it so engaging and accessible.? Dr Caitriona Dowd, Assistant Professor, School of Politics and International Relations, University College Dublin Attendees on this course can choose to receive a Certificate of Completion, certified by QGIS for a donation of ?20. Geospatial Training Solutions / Nick Bearman is a QGIS approved training organisation, and a donation of ?20 for each participant will be made to the QGIS Foundation, supporting the development of QGIS. More details at https://www.qgis.org/community/certification/. Introduction to Spatial Data & Using R as a GIS ===================================== In this two half day course we will explore how to use R to import, manage and process spatial data. We will also cover the process of making choropleth maps, as well as some basic spatial analysis. Finally, we will cover the use of loops to make multiple maps quickly and easily, one of the major benefits of using a scripting language to make maps, rather than traditional graphic point-and-click interface. No previous experience of coding is required, although participants would benefit from some experience of using spatial data (e.g. Google Maps). Tue 28th and Wed 29th Apr 2026, 10am ? 1pm (UK/London), online, NCRM, https://www.ncrm.ac.uk/training/show.php?article=14372 ?Nice balance of theory and practice. Also useful to learn what to look for if things go wrong. Content was flexible to include what might be useful for our work.? Vickie, Analyst, Public Health Wales Advanced R as a GIS: Spatial Analysis and Statistics ====================================================== In this two part course we will show you how to prepare and conduct spatial analysis on a variety of spatial data in R, including a range of spatial overlays and data processing techniques. We will also cover how to use GeoDa to perform exploratory spatial data analysis, including making use of linked displays and measures of spatial autocorrelation and clustering. This course can follow-on from the ?Introduction to Spatial Data & Using R as a GIS? course, or be run independently if participants have some previous knowledge of R / RStudio and spatial data.
