A day of workshops will precede the conference on 14th July, and a code sprint will close the event on 18th JulyFOSS4G-Europe 2015 is takes place. The Conference aims to bring together FOSS4G users and developers worldwide and foster closer interactions with and amongst European communities in order to share ideas for improving geodata, software and applications openness.
PublicaMundi will attend the Conference grabbing the opportunity to schedule their next plenary meeting in Como aligning with the Conference.
PublicaMundi will have an active presence at the Conference, organizing two workshops (‘Deploying Web Processing Services using ZOO-Project – Examples Python WPS using PgRouting’, ‘Spatio-temporal Big Data: the Rasdaman approach in the context of the PublicaMundi project’) and one a presentation (Towards Open Big Geospatial Data for geodata.gov.gr) demonstrating the PublicaMundi technologies.
Also, we have decided to have our next plenary project meeting aligned with FOSS4G-Europe! Following the success of the last year FOSS4G-Europe 2014 in Bremen, we strongly believe that the FOSS4G-Europe 2015 will be again a great opportunity to collect feedback from developers, gauge interest, explore collaborations, and showcase our work.
Stay tuned, more news under FOSS4G-Europe.

GET, fourth member of the PublicaMundi Consortium will participate at the INSPIRE Geospatial World Forum showcasing PublicaMundi technologies to the INSPIRE community.
INSPIRE Geospatial World Forum will take from the 25th to the 29th of May in Lisbon. This year’s conference has a theme on CONVERGENCE: Policies + Practices + Processes via PPP.
“Policies, technologies and applications are the three key factors affecting growth of geospatial industry. Formulation of policies and its associated implementation requires strong engagement & propagation of innovations and practices. Public private partnership is one instrumental driver not only in bridging technological gaps, but in integrating stakeholders for maximum impact. The theme CONVERGENCE: Policies + Practices + Processes via PPP aims to address the need for greater coordination among policy-makers, technology providers and users to benefit the industry, and to highlight geospatial workflows as an enabler for successful PPPs by facilitating more informed decision making among the stakeholders”.
GET will be there representing the PublicaMundi team. Firstly, under the thematic session Policy and Technology / Open Data (Thursday, 28 May 2015, 0900-1230 hrs), there will be a presentation with the title PublicaMundi, an FP7 Project Aiming to Make Open Geospatial Data Easier to Publish, View, and Reuse. Moreover, GET will have a stand (D15) at the exhibition area of the conference where you will find information material regarding PublicaMundi as well as members of PublicaMundi team who will be available to inform you for the goals, the results, the progress and the impact of the PublicaMundi project.
