DESCRIPTION:As a public agency\, IGN has an obligation to publish in open f
 ormat the data it produces and some of the code it develops. But our commi
 tment to Open Source goes beyond giving access to the code produced and fo
 r more than ten years\, IGN (the French map agency) has been engaged in cr
 eating Digital Commons\, both in terms of data and in terms of code. In ad
 dition to contributing to well-known open-source libraries (pdal\, gdal\, 
 etc.)\, our developers push a large part of their code on public repositor
 y on github. And\, for some\, we are working to build and animate a commun
 ity of contributors and users. \n\nIn this conference\, we will explain wh
 y a national mapping agency has chosen to adopt such an approach and why w
 e believe Digital Commons are strategic to build a sustainable and collabo
 rative future. We will give a quick overview of the code we are making ope
 n source and the organization that this involves (in particular\, the crea
 tion of an Open Source Program Office - OSPO). \n\nFinally\, we will prese
 nt our recent activities\, organizational (internal drafting of guides\, F
 AQs\, etc.) and technical (new project and ongoing developments) and also 
 contributions we can make with other organizations and companies involved 
 in open source initiatives (notably participation in Tosit\, a gathering o
 f French companies focused on open source).
