OSGeoLive is a self-contained bootable DVD, USB thumb drive or Virtual Machine based on Lubuntu, that allows you to try a wide variety of open source geospatial software without installing anything. It is composed entirely of free software, allowing it to be freely distributed, duplicated and passed around. It provides pre-configured applications for a range of geospatial use cases, including storage, publishing, viewing, analysis and manipulation of data. It also contains sample datasets and documentation. OSGeoLive is an OSGeo project used in several workshops at FOSS4Gs around
the world.
The OSGeoLive project has contributions from many projects for over a decade. How are technology changes affecting OSGeoLive? Where is OSGeoLive heading and what are the challenges and opportunities for the future? Let's have a closer look.

Cool solution. See how it works.
Get to know the ST_Letters function that allows you to visualize the results of PostGIS functions with letters. ST_Letters renders a string as a multipolygon geometry. It is fun to use the function to experiment with PostGIS functions. Get to knwo how it works.
