Subject:        [OSGeo-Announce] Barcelona to host FOSS4G conference in 2010

   Barcelona (Spain) selected to host the 2010 international
   conference for "Free & Open Source Software for  GeoSpatial" (FOSS4G).

The OSGeo Foundation has selected Barcelona for the location of the
FOSS4G 2010 conference, to take place in September.

FOSS4G is the premier international event organized around Free and
Open Source Software for Geospatial. The selection of Barcelona  brings
the conference back to Europe, providing an ideal central  location for
experienced users and core developers to meet and share  experiences.
It is also the single best annual conference to dive in  to the Open
Source geospatial world, with introductory workshops,  case studies of
successful implementations, and numerous  opportunities for meeting
others who have leveraged FOSS to solve  their problems.

The Spanish language chapter of OSGeo is pleased to be selected to
host FOSS4G 2010. Geospatial Free and Open Source Software has great
institutional support in Spain. Government administrations like
Extremadura, Andalucia and Comunidad Valencia are investing heavily  in
building software that meets their needs. The official language of  the
conference will be English, but the Spanish speaking community  will
have numerous opportunities to participate in their native  language.

In addition to software, the conference will also touch on a variety
of related topics such as open data, open standards and the INSPIRE
directive. To receive additional information about the conference go to:

*About OSGeo*

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation has been created to support and
build the highest-quality Open Source geospatial software. The
foundation's goal is to encourage the use and collaborative
development of community-led projects, data development and education
[1].

*About OSGeo-es*

The Spanish language chapter is a fast growing community embracing  all
countries that speak the Spanish language. It is focused on  promoting
and building software, localizing documentation, and  sharing
educational material. The primary activity of the chapter is  the
realization of a Free GIS book, built by the community and  distributed
with a Creative Commons license.

*About FOSS4G*

FOSS4G is the annual international conference on Open Source
geospatial software. From its beginning the FOSS4G conference has  been
the gathering of the spatial tribes and has a reputation of  being a
melting pot for great ideas in the spatial industry and a  catalyst for
many successful geospatial products, standards and  protocols. The 2008
conference was held in Cape Town, South Africa  and was a huge
success[2]. The 2009 conference will be held in  Sydney, Australia[3].
FOSS4G 2010 Barcelona will be the eighth  "formal" gathering of the
Open Source geospatial community. 2010 will  be a key year for Europe,
with the INSPIRE initiative, and FOSS4G  will be the best place to see
the Free Software way to make an SDI work.
