Sessions
The session will be featuring the three keynote speakers together with OSGeo President Jeroen Ticheler and several current OSGeo leaders and contributors.
Discover all QField new features and Explore how QField empowers people to map and understand the world—supporting daily tasks, global challenges, and the UN SDGs through open-source, intuitive, and collaborative mobile geospatial tools.
This session follows on from the QGIS "Feature Frenzy" talk and is your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to ask Marco Bernasocchi (QGIS.org Chairperson) and Nyall Dawson (QGIS Core Contributor) anything about QGIS.
Data gets collected in the field, processed on the desktop, and consumed by people who never open a GIS. OPENGIS.ch works across that whole path. We build QField for field work, we're the second biggest contributor to QGIS core, and we've just launched Georama (georama.io) for publishing maps and geospatial stories on the web. Eight minutes on how the pieces connect, and how the commercial side pays for the open-source side.
