This event aims to share knowledge and experiences with open
source geospatial technologies and open data. It will empower
individuals and organizations to leverage their resources to
communicate common issues and institute effective, scalable, and
resilient solutions.
<p>
The Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial North America
(FOSS4G NA) conference is a yearly event that brings together
developers, users, managers, and the rest of the community to
share and connect. It is a unique chance to hear talks about
projects and technologies that leverage FOSS4G technology in
many different ways.
</p>
<p>
Through presentations, panels, posters, and workshops,
everyone can share what they are passionate about in the
FOSS4G ecosystem. It's a unique opportunity to discuss the
changing landscape of geospatial technology with a community
that uses and develops mission-critical solutions for many
organizations.

The annual FOSS4G NA conference is North America's largest
gathering focused on open source geospatial software. FOSS4G NA
brings together developers, users, decision-makers, and
observers from a broad spectrum of organizations and fields of
operation. FOSS4G NA participants create practical and relevant
geospatial products, standards, and protocols through three days
of workshops, presentations, discussions, and cooperation.
FOSS4G NA has been held in Baltimore, Raleigh, and many other
cities across North America.
<p>
Beyond the conference content, there are many opportunities to
connect with other community members. An Ice-Breaker event and
a Gala are held during the conference, allowing everyone to
continue the conversation from the day or meet new people.{" "}
</p>
<p>
Last year, the gala was held at the Baltimore Science Museum,
and many participants enjoyed exploring the exhibits and
variety of food stations. Conference attendees created
informal gatherings, from user group meetups to morning runs.
