QFieldCloud - seamless fieldwork for QGIS
2023-06-29, 14:30–15:00 (Europe/Tirane), Outdoor Stage

QFieldCloud enables the synchronisation and consolidation of field data collected by teams using QField. From small individual projects to large data collection campaigns, the platform allows you to manage the collaboration of multiple people on the same project, assign different roles and rights to different users, work online and offline, and keep track of changes made. In 2022, QFieldCloud was testable as a beta version. Already during the beta phase, over 40,000 registered users synchronised their projects via the platform. Beginning of 2023, the official version was released. A brief overview of how QFieldCloud works and how the platform is built is given.

Marco Bernasocchi is an open-source advocate, entrepreneur and full-stack geoninja. He is the creator of QField for QGIS, currently serves as QGIS.org Chair, and is an Open Source Geospatial Foundation board member. In his day job, Marco is the CEO of OPENGIS.ch, which he founded in 2011.

A geographer by trade, Marco lives in a small Romansh-speaking mountain village in Switzerland, where he loves scrambling around the mountains to enjoy the feeling of freedom it gives him. Outgoing, flexible and open-minded, Marco fluently speaks five languages. The best thing is: He not only knows how to say it but also loves sharing his know-how.
