-
-# Description
-Following the established tradition, an Academic Track running over the days of
-the FOSS4G Europe (FOSS4GE) is organised. The Academic Track is organised by
-the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS), in
-particular
-**{{<

- rel="noopener noreferrer"
->}}**.
-The [**Scientific Committee**](../scientific-committee/) of
-FOSS4GE 2024 invites original research contributions addressing any topic or
-domain connected to free and open source geospatial software, including (but not
-limited to):
-- open hardware
-- open source software development
-- open geospatial science
-- open geospatial data
-- (geo)spatial data sharing systems
-- open (geospatial) cloud platforms and Services
-- open (geo)education
-- participatory mapping
-- Digital Twins
-- GeoAI and geospatial Machine Learning
-- Natural Language Processing and Large Language Models.
-
-Given the European focus of the conference, authors are encouraged to develop
-applications and use cases with a European scope and/or driven by European
-policy initiatives and/or using datasets from prominent European initiatives
-such as INSPIRE and Copernicus.
-
-All types of papers are welcome, including results achieved, case studies,
-work in progress, reviews and demos. We discourage, however, mere presentations
-of technology or use cases without properly justifying originality against the
-scientific state of the art and without particular novelty. In addition, the
-use of open source geospatial software and its impact on the work should be
-properly highlighted. Contributions from PhD students and early-stage researchers
-are particularly encouraged.
-
-In the evaluation of proposals, the [**Scientific Committee**](../scientific-committee/) will pay particular
-attention to the reproducibility of the research (where this is applicable).
-Reproducibility is ensured when the research makes all artefacts (input data,
-computational steps, methods and code) openly available to obtain consistent
-results. When available, the code shall be publicly released under an open
-source license.
-
-# How to Submit a Paper
-The submission procedure is divided into two steps. Note that both steps are
-mandatory in order for authors to be able to present their work at the
-FOSS4GE conference.
-
-
-## Step 1
-**Deadline** ~~11 February~~ **25 February**
-
-As a first step, authors are invited to submit abstracts written in English,
-comprising between 800 and 1000 words and containing sufficient details for
-evaluation (including the approach, results, concepts, reasons why it should be
-considered and why it would be interesting for the FOSS4GE Academic Track
-audience).
-
-The submitted proposals are not publicly visible until the FOSS4G Europe 2024
-[**Scientific Committee**](../scientific-committee/) has accepted them after a review period. Until then
-the authors can share their proposal for feedback/proof-reading with colleagues
-or friends via a link that is automatically created during submission.
-
-The contributions are evaluated in the abstract review process. Submitted
-abstracts will be refereed by the members of the [**Scientific Committee**](../scientific-committee/) for
-originality/scientific novelty, relevance for the FOSS4G community,
-presentation/clarity and overall quality.
-
-As in all the fields of science, reproducibility will be considered among the
-evaluation criteria (see above). Authors will receive feedback and
-(for accepted abstracts) suggestions for improvement to be used for preparing
-their papers, to be submitted in Step 2.
-
-## Step 2
-**Deadline 3 May**
-
-If the abstract is accepted, the authors are invited to submit an extended
-paper that shall include original and unpublished research.
-
-We can accept up to 2 papers per registration. If you choose this option and
-the two abstracts (for which only one author is registered to the conference)
-are both accepted, one proposal will be presented through a standard oral
-presentation and the other one will be presented through a poster or a 5
-minutes lightning talk (this will be decided at a later stage). Alternatively
-(and based on the reviews) both they can be presented through posters or
-lightning talks. Regardless of the situation (1 oral presentation and 1
-poster/lightning talk or 2 posters/lightning talks), the authors have to write
-two papers for Step 2.
-
-Submitted papers will not be reviewed again, i.e. the acceptance of the content
-is solely based on the abstract. However, papers will be checked against the
-conformance to the template (see below) as well as checked for a plagiarism check using
-specialised software.
-
-Only the work of authors who submitted the extended paper (conformant to the
-template) will be included (as talks or posters/lightning talks) in the
-Academic Track program. In other words, no presentation at the Academic Track
-is possible without submitting the paper.
-
-The papers will be published in
-**{{<
- extlink href="https://www.isprs.org/publications/archives.aspx"
- title="The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences"
- target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"

->}}**.
-
-Please pay attention that accepted papers will be published only after checking
-that at least one author is registered to the conference, with a limit of a
-maximum of two papers per author (as explained above). The papers will be
-published online on the first day of the conference at the latest.
-
-All papers should be formatted according to the ISPRS author’s guidelines

-# Description
-Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial (FOSS4G) Europe is the regional
-flagship event of OSGeo - an open, grassroots, and dynamic community. We are
-looking for novel and original submissions on development, use, and advocacy
-for FOSS4G over a wider array of topics ranging from state-of-software to
-specific use cases, from building and sustaining a community to building a
-business around FOSS4G technology, from software technical details to
-democratic processes and policy making.
-
-Whether you are a seasoned FOSS4Ger or it would be your first time presenting,
-we are very happy to welcome your submission - the conference series and the
-whole FOSS4G community flourishes on the shared experiences and knowledge
-of its presenters.
-
-As this is a regional OSGeo event we are more concentrated on themes related to
-European topics, activities, and possibilities. But as we live in an
-interconnected World the themes will not be limited to Europe only.
-
-Please keep in mind this is a Free and Open Source Software conference.
-Submissions promoting restricted license / closed source software will not
-be accepted.
-
-# Session types
-A regular talk slot is 30 minutes long:
-- 20 minutes for the talk,
-- 5 minutes for questions and answers, and
-- 5 minutes for the participants to change rooms and next speaker setup.
-
-There is also a possibility to submit a lightning talk with a 5 minute speaker
-slot, with 4 minutes for the talk, and 1 minute for the next speaker setup.
-
-We are preparing to host 5 parallel tracks with 1.5h long sessions, meaning we
-will be able to host approximately 130 presentations in total.
-
-# Submitting a proposal
-### 1. general topic
-When submitting your talk, you will be asked to select one general topic that
-best defines your contribution. This will help us group similar-themed talks
-to the same tracks. The topics for general sessions are as follows
-
-##### - Transition to FOSS4G
-Do you have a success story to share about transitioning a system or workflow
-to FOSS4G technology? Maybe some lessons learned? We would like to hear about it,
-and have you share your experiences with the rest of the community.
-
-##### - Open standards and interoperability for geospatial
-Open standards help us to be interoperable. They help us share and consume data.
-Do you want to share the inner workings of your SDI? Or maybe you have thoughts
-on implementing INSPIRE services? Or maybe you are building something
-pan-European on top of INSPIRE? Updates on the European Union Location
-Framework (EULF) Blueprint?
-
-##### - Building a business with FOSS4G
-You have built a business around supporting and maintaining a FOSS4G product.
-It’s a different kind of attitude toward the users, and the product itself
-with respect to the “traditional” closed source business model. How do you
-manage that? What are some of the pitfalls, and what are the gains with the
-choices you’ve made?
-
-##### - State of software
-Recent developments in Free and Open Source Software projects. Maybe tease the
-audience with a sneak peek of what’s to come in a release later in the year?
-
-##### - Open community
-How do you engage people? What makes people want to contribute, and be part of
-the community? Maybe your local OSGeo chapter? A software user group? Or maybe
-you’ve participated in a mapathon and want to share your thoughts. This is most
-suitable for sharing experiences so we can all grow as individuals and build
-and sustain our communities better. Sharing is caring.
-
-##### - FOSS4G “Made in Europe”
-A special track co-organized with the European Commission to investigate
-and introduce the many Free and Open Source
-software tools, data capture and collection and sharing projects carried out
-at the European Commission, European institutions, or funded by them.
-
-##### - Open Data
-Open source software is a nice thing but it is of little use if there’s no
-data to use it with. Are you using Open Data to build something? Or better yet,
-are you producing Open Data? A dataset we haven’t heard about? Excellent! We
-are all eager to find out about it, to make decision making processes more
-transparent and democratic.
-
-##### - Use cases and applications
-You have a very specific use case for doing things with Free and Open Source
-Software. Maybe you are using AI to do Earth Observation? Or maybe routing?
-Farming a flock of drones? Making sense of a gazillion points in space and
-time? Something completely different that we didn’t even imagine Free and
-Open Source Software could be used for? We are all eager to find novel and
-interesting ways of solving geospatial puzzles, and to make existing workflows
-smoother. Something will click in the audience’s heads after hearing your talk.
-
-##### - FOSS4G in education and research
-Are you an educator? And you are making your students use Free and Open Source
-Software? Perfect! We’d like to hear from you how you have managed that.
-What is the reaction of students? How do you engage them and how do you
-introduce them to the wonderful world of Free and Open Source Software and
-the communities that surround them?
-
-
-### 2. General theme(s)
-In addition, you’ll be asked to provide at least one general theme to describe
-your submission (think of this as a keyword)
-
-- Data collection, sharing
-- Data processing and analysis
-- Spatial machine learning
-- Data visualization
-- State of software, or new features
-- Business case around FOSS4G
-- FOSS4G at governmental institutions
-- FOSS4G and sustainable development goals (SDG)
-- FOSS4G for movement, transport, and networks. In space and time, by any subject (water, asphalt, people, birds, animals, air, or even cosmos)
-- FOSS4G for crisis / disaster response, civil defence
-- FOSS4G for land use planning, land management, monitoring, smart cities, population mapping
-- FOSS4G for ocean / marine monitoring
-- Drones, sensors, lasers, and remote sensing
-- FOSS4G for agriculture
-- IoT, indoor mapping
-- Standards, SDI, INSPIRE, interoperability
-- Education
-- Community building and participatory FOSS4G
-
-### 3. Level of difficulty
-And finally, we would like to ask you to identify the level of the technical
-complexity of your presentation on a 3-point scale ranging from
-“no previous knowledge needed” to “must be a super expert to understand”.
-
-
-# Guidelines
-There are no formal indications when preparing your contribution for the
-conference, but please consider the following suggestions:
-- FOSS4G is - first and foremost - about open source, so make sure you
- clearly indicate which projects are essential in your talk
-- If your talk is about developments in or a completely new project, please
- point to the appropriate repository (or repositories)
-- Your talk would not be about the development of software? Yes! Although software
- development is in the heart of FOSS4G it is not the only purpose of the
- conference. The goal is to bring together developers and users, policymakers
- and open community advocates over the broad sphere of geospatial to share
- experiences and showcase the power and reach of free and open source software.
-- The more suitable the selection of topic, theme, and technical complexity are,
- the better shaped the final program will be. So, please, help us optimize
- your time and make the best out of the conference.
-- Although we are working hard on bringing you good internet connectivity at
- the venue, please don’t rely on it solely in your presentation. Things tend
- to break exactly at the moment of live demonstrations.
-- We believe in equality, therefore please keep in mind the talk slot lengths
- when preparing your presentation. But at the same time be prepared that the
- hallway discussions on your presentation might continue until the early
- hours of the morning.
-- FOSS4G is an open community of people from various, diverse backgrounds and
- lived experiences. This is what makes us strong and we care for each other’s
- well-being. Please keep in mind that a derogatory attitude towards other
- people or their work is not welcome.
-- We are working on making the streaming of presentations a reality, however, the
- conference presenters would be expected to be on-site
-- And lastly, the success of this event lies in the responsible actions of all
- participants and organizers alike. If you have confirmed your participation
- but later on you or the co-authors are no longer able to present, please let
- us know as soon as possible.
-
-# Selection process
-FOSS4G Europe is a **community event** and therefore the main selection of talks
-will be done through an open community voting process. The highest-scoring
-ones will automatically be included in the program, while others will be
-reviewed by the volunteer [**Program Committee**](../program-committee/).

-# Description
-Workshops are practical hands-on sessions to acquire new know-how in the
-use of FOSS4G software. They should showcase current and emerging technologies
-and provide a direct interaction between our highly skilled OSGeo community
-members and the public at large who want to learn something new or consolidate
-their skills.
-
-Workshop slots are 4 hours long and take place two days prior to the
-main conference days. We expect workshop participants to bring their own laptops.
-Please indicate clearly if prior installation of any specific software is
-required.
-
-When submitting a workshop, please use the abstract to make the scope and
-contents clear. Inclusion of a list of topics you want to cover is very welcome.
-Ideally, you should also list the prerequisite skills e.g. basic skills in
-Python programming are required.
-
-You will also be asked to indicate the level of difficulty on a scale of
-1 (beginner) to 3 (highly advanced) for the workshop.
-
-Please, keep in mind this is a Free and Open Source Software conference.
-Submissions promoting restricted license / closed source software will not
-be accepted.
-
-The FOSS4G Europe 2024 Local Organizing Committee understands the huge body of
-work that goes into preparing a successful and educative workshop. Therefore,
-the accepted workshop presenters will be offered a possibility of free
-ticket to the conference's main program.
-
-# Selection process
-We will have a two-week community vote on the submitted workshops.
-The result of the community vote will be taken as a recommendation, but the
-last decision lies with the volunteer [**Program Committee**](../program-committee/). The community vote is
-essential for us to assign rooms and capacity planning for participants to
-get the best FOSS4G experience.

-
-Adopt-a-ticket is your chance to support FOSS4GE 2024 by purchasing any number of
-extra tickets for the conference that will be donated to our wonderful workshop
-instructors and Travel Grant Program (TGP) receivers.
-
-## Why?
-- We are dedicated to running the
-[**Travel Grant Program**](../../registration/travel-grant/) (TGP) - a way to
-facilitate accessibility and diversity in the event. In addition to a
-monetary grant for grantees' travel and accommodation expenses handled in
-cooperation with OSGeo, the LOC will grant free access to the conference main
-days plus one workshop of choice for all Travel Grant receivers.
-- the LOC understands that preparing and conducting an educative and
-successful workshop takes quite some effort and time. This is the reason we are
-giving away free tickets to all workshop instructors.
-
-We do this because we believe this is the right thing to do.
-
-But this also means that the conference will miss out on some of the income funds
-although we still need to cover the related expenses (lunches, coffee breaks, etc).
-This is where we would appreciate your help. Instead of increasing the ticket
-cost for all we chose to allow you to make a conscious choice.
-
-## How does this work?
-When registering for the conference, you can choose between any of the add-ons: a
-t-shirt, a mug, workshop tickets and so on. One of the add-ons there is
-called _Adopt-a-ticket_, your chance to help us raise extra funds to do the
-right thing.
-
-We see it equally as an opportunity for smaller organizations and individuals
-who would like to support the conference but for whom the existing
-[**sponsorship levels**](../../call-for-sponsors/) are too expensive.
-
-## What's in it for you?
-With _Adopt-a-ticket_ you can purchase any number of extra tickets. In return
-we would like to show our gratitude by having you included in the
-[**Honorable mentions**](../../sponsors/honorable-mentions/) section of the
-conference homepage. If you buy more than one extra ticket with _adopt-a-ticket_
-then you would instead be eligible for any of the predefined
-[**sponsor packages**](../../call-for-sponsors/) in an equal amount.

-## FOSS4GE 2024 Travel Grant Programme (TGP)
-The _F_ in FOSS4G stands for Free and freedom is not only important for software
-or data, but it is also important for the community in which everybody can freely
-participate. For years OSGeo has provided a Travel Grant Programme (TGP) for
-its conferences to increase the accessibility and diversity of FOSS4G events.
-The Tartu local organising committee is happy to provide travel grants in
-cooperation with OSGeo also for FOSS4G Europe 2024.
-
-
-
-
-### Travel Grants
-Every grant includes a free conference pass, one free workshop, and a grant
-fund of up to 400€ that can be used for travelling and/or accommodation expenses.
-The number and size of grants may be adjusted by the FOSS4GE 2024
-Travel Grant Committee based on the amount of funds raised for TGP.
-
-Applying for travel grants is open to everyone with only a few rules:
-- Being a regional conference, travel grants for FOSS4G Europe 2024 are only
-available to residents of
-**{{<
- extlink href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_and_dependent_territories_in_Europe"
- title="European countries"
- target="blank"
- rel="noopener noreferrer"
->}}**. This is a regional conference and
-a chance to attract more Europeans to the free and open source community.
-- Although Estonia is located in Europe, permanent residents of Estonia are not
-eligible to receive travel grants.
-- Everyone receiving a travel grant is expected to do volunteer work for at
-least 12 hours during the conference. This is a way to strengthen the OSGeo
-community and will help to create a better conference experience for everyone.
-
-The purpose of the travel grant programme is to enhance diversity at the
-conference. We might reserve a few programme spots for people with unique and
-outstanding applications. However, the majority of programme spots will solely
-be determined by the point ranking. In case of equal points, the distance
-between the applicant's hometown and Tartu is measured and the applicant
-coming from farther away wins.
-
-Please consider applying for a smaller grant (up to 300€). It would score you
-more ranking points and also leave the committee with more funds for additional
-grants.
-
-### Scoring principles
-
-- **2 points** if you apply for a smaller grant (up to 300€)
-- **2 points** if you have accepted talk(s) or workshop(s)
-- **2 points** for previous proven involvement in OSGeo projects or community
-building activities
-- **1 point** if you proposed talk(s) and/or workshop(s) but they were not accepted
-- **1 point** of being enrolled as a student (including PhD student)
-- **1 point** for permanent residence in any European country NOT defined as a
-high-income economy.

-data puts the following 15 countries into this group: Albania, Armenia,
-Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Georgia, Kazakhstan,
-Kosovo, Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Russia, Serbia, Türkiye.
-
-### Important dates
-- **_February 2024_** - FOSS4G Europe 2024 TGP opens, start sending your applications
-- **_31 March_** - Deadline for applying
-- **_17 April_** - Grant applications are evaluated by the committee, and receivers
-of grants are contacted by email
-- **_1 July 2024_** - Start of the conference
-
-### Payment
-We expect grantees to be able to fund the direct costs of travelling to the
-FOSS4G Europe conference. Successful applicants will receive conference passes
-and will become eligible for reimbursement of expenses up to the limit of the
-travel grant. Paying out the monetary part of TGP will be carried out
-during/after the conference by direct transfer to the recipient’s bank account
-only based on the actual expenses up to the total grant limit, meaning that you
-need to submit your train/bus/flight tickets/invoices and accommodation invoices
-that you want to have covered. Details will be managed at check-in time at the
-conference registration desk.
-
-For exceptional cases when the monetary grant will be needed in advance or
-specific costs need to be covered directly, please contact the organisers of
-the conference.
-
-**Please note!** Receivers of travel grants need to arrange necessary visas and
-other documents needed to enter Estonia to attend the conference themselves.
-You can get more information on visas from the
-**{{<

- title="Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs"
- target="blank"
- rel="noopener noreferrer"
->}}**.
-
-### Supporting the TGP
-The funding of travel grants comes from:
-- [**Conference sponsors**](../../sponsors/)
-- **{{<
- extlink href="https://www.osgeo.org/sponsors/"
- title="Sponsors of OSGeo"
- target="blank"
- rel="noopener noreferrer"
->}}**
-- Annual commitment from the OSGeo board
-
-You can help make the FOSS4G conferences more accessible and increase the
-diversity of attendees by
-[**becoming a sponsor of the conference**](../../call-for-sponsors/)
-or by
-**{{<
- extlink href="https://www.osgeo.org/about/how-to-become-a-sponsor/"
- title="donating money directly to OSGeo"
- target="blank"
- rel="noopener noreferrer"
->}}** .
-
-An easy way to support is to
-[**Adopt-a-ticket**](../../registration/adopt-a-ticket/) during your own
-[**registration**](../../registration/) to the event. The
-proceeds from **adopt-a-ticket** will be used to cover costs
-for workshop presenters and TGP applicants' gratis entrance. With at least one
-_ticket adoption_ you will be included as an honourable mention in our
-conference channels. If you buy more, you are instead eligible for one of the
-different sponsorship levels at equal value which you can find in the FOSS4GE 2024
-[**Call for Sponsors**](../../call-for-sponsors/).
-
-### About the TGP
-The FOSS4G Travel Grant Program initiative was established in 2017 by the OSGeo
-Board to facilitate accessibility and diversity at the global and regional
-FOSS4G events.
-
-The travel grant program is managed by the OSGeo Conference Committee, in
-collaboration with representatives from each FOSS4G event.

-### Short description of the excursion
-
-
-In Setomaa you will see different natural and cultural sites during our bus trip:
-
-| | |
-|-----------------------|-----------------------------------------|
-| Lüübnitsa is a Russian village in northern Setomaa on the coast of Lake Pskov. The local inhabitants are involved in the cultivation of onions and fishing. We will visit the **{{< extlink href="https://www.visitestonia.com/en/luubnitsa-viewing-tower" title="Lüübnitsa viewing tower" >}}** on the beach, which provides one with a good view of the village, Kolpino Island and the Estonian-Russian border. | {{< figure

- caption="Source: [**visitsetomaa.ee**](https://visitsetomaa.ee/en/attractions/97/mikitam%C3%A4e-orthodox-village-chapels)"
->}} | Tsässon is an **{{< extlink href="https://visitsetomaa.ee/en/attractions/97/mikitam%C3%A4e-orthodox-village-chapels" title="Orthodox village chapel" >}}** in Setumaa. The square in front of Mikitamäe Center is called Tsässonate Square, because there are two tsässons next to each other. Old tsässon is the oldest wooden building in mainland Estonia: its probable construction date is 1694. |
-| In 2020, a lovely promenade with two viewing platforms was built along the coast of Värska Bay. The different sections of the **{{< extlink href="https://maps.visitsetomaa.ee/en/objects/vaerska-promenade/157?map_id=7" title="300-meter promenade" >}}** are united by the use of timber and granite, the two main construction materials. The springs have been directed into beautiful natural waterways. |{{< figure

->}} | [**Saatse 'Boot'**](https://www.visitestonia.com/en/saatse-boot) is a boot-shaped area of the Russian state border that cuts the Värska–Saatse road for 800 m. Every traveller on the road briefly enters the territory of the Russian Federation. A Russian visa is not required to pass the boot, but you must have your passport or identity document with you. This is a border area that can be crossed without stopping by car or bicycle. |
-| We will visit the **{{< extlink href="https://www.visitestonia.com/en/piusa-caves-visitor-centre" title="observation platform at the Museum Cave" >}}**. The Piusa sandstone caves are the result of hand-mining glass sand during 1922–1966. The biggest wintering colony of bats in East Europe is located in the caves. There are also nice views of the open sand quarry. | {{< figure

-If you are a policymaker, scientist, technical expert or stakeholder involved in geospatial technologies, public policy and/or disaster risk management, and are looking to deepen your expertise and impact in integrating data solutions for climate resilience, health and sustainability, this event is specially designed for you. While the event will be driven by high-level interventions, all on-site participants will be actively engaged in the discussions and their input will be integrated in the summary report.
-
-**The Agenda 2030 and Sustainable Development Goals as common language**
-
-OGC Innovation Days Europe provides a platform to discuss how current technical efforts can be combined effectively with the necessary governance and policy aspects. What decision processes do we need? What agreements are required for efficient decision processes or homogeneous reporting models for, for example, Climate Change or Land Degradation Neutrality? These discussions will underscore the alignment with Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which serve as guiding threads for the event. Specifically, attendees will explore how digital solutions and data management can help meet SDG targets, such as Climate Action (SDG 13) and Life on Land (SDG 15). By leveraging these frameworks, participants can identify actionable strategies to align their work with the global goals for sustainable development, thus enabling a cohesive, collaborative approach to bridging technology and policy.
-
-
-##### Thematic focus: Climate and Disaster Resilience and One Health, and Data Spaces
-
-Achieving climate and disaster resilience and sustainable development goals requires reliable location information on the environment, plants, animals, soil, land, and climate change impact among other disciplines. Generating this information dedicated to the users’ needs is challenging, and requires highly optimized spatial data infrastructures and climate resilience information systems. These systems should be integrated within clearly defined policy strategies and climate actions, propelled by efficient policy frameworks, ensuring that data pipelines and data spaces are interoperable and well-structured. This integration facilitates the effective use of analysis, visualization, and reporting tools, critical for informing and implementing climate strategies.
-
-
-OGC Innovation Days Europe will foster a dialogue between technical experts, decision-makers, and policy experts. The focus will be on enhancing Climate & Disaster Resilience, advancing One Health initiatives, and exploring the challenges to optimise European Common Data Spaces. The event will spotlight ongoing initiatives for modernized knowledge exchange and analysis environments to support these goals.
-
-- **Climate and Disaster Resilience.** This pillar will focus on enhancing resilience to climate-related hazards and natural disasters, closely aligned with the guiding principles of the UN climate policy frameworks related to Disaster Risk Reduction. It will discuss how innovative geospatial solutions can develop robust strategies that mitigate atmospheric pollution, adapt to the impacts of climate change and enhance disaster preparedness. Emphasizing a multi-hazard approach, the pillar calls for inclusive decision-making based on the open exchange of information and knowledge.
-
-
-- **One Health.** The One Health pillar will explore the interconnected health of people, animals, plants and their shared environment, emphasizing the critical role of climate change, loss of biodiversity and land degradation. It will highlight integrated approaches to health risks at the human-animal-ecosystem interface, discussing how the environment acts both as an enabler and an indicator of holistic health.
-
-
-- **Data Spaces.** Data Spaces are dedicated to advancing the architecture of digital data governance, focusing on the creation and management of interoperable data ecosystems. The pillar will introduce the need for streamlining data sharing and utilization across various sectors to support decision-making.
-
-Each thematic area will directly align with Sustainable Development Goals, such as SDG 13 Climate Action, SDG14 Live below water, SDG 15 Life on Land, and others, ensuring that the discussions are grounded in the global agenda for sustainable development.
-
-
-##### Expected Outcomes of OGC Innovation Days Europe
-
-The workshop will compile the findings of the set of sessions. It will
-refine the identified requirements for the dataspaces to enhance the
-information and knowledge exchange on scientific, technical, and policy
-levels.
-
-OGC Innovation Days Europe supports the shift in IT solutions from being purely technology-oriented to a more holistic approach that better accounts for the various needs of the stakeholders. The event will identify these needs and thus make an essential contribution to improving the direction of future technological developments, supporting operational setups that are driven by efficient governance models and that operate within a solution-oriented policy framework.

-There are many great cafes/pubs/bars around and in Tartu. The LOC has selected
-a few that we like that capture the studentesque atmosphere of the town. We're
-also doing this listing in the hopes that it will give you more opportunities
-to meet fellow conference-goers for late-night (and early morning!) discussions
-on specific topics related to free and open source in geospatial. Maybe meet
-up with the presenter from the daily sessions to discuss the specifics of their
-presentation. Or meet up with the developers or other users of your
-favourite piece of software, someone you maybe only know by their @-handle or
-email address.
-
-Most of the nightlife is concentrated along Rüütli tn - a car-free street in the
-city centre with lots of opportunities for outside seating during the summer.
-But there are cosy and welcoming places beyond the immediate centre too.
-
-During the conference week, our partner pubs will be also marked with special
-FOSS4GE 2024 signs so it's easier to find them on the streets. Feel free to
-step in and try to ask for a custom FOSS4GE conference drink.
-
-## Mülä
-
-Located at the very border of the city centre and
-{{<
- extlink href="https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supilinn"
- title="Supilinn"
- target="blank"
- rel="noopener noreferrer">}} (Estonian for Soup Town),
-Mülä is a community bar whose soul lives on the shore of river Emajõgi in a
-red-brick house. A cafe during the daytime with delicious cakes and buns made on
-the spot, turned bar in the evenings.
-
-Oh, and by the way, although the address says Kroonuaia tn, the entrance is
-from Emajõe tn.
-
-Housed in the sub-culture house
-{{<
- extlink href="https://genklubi.ee/"
- title="Genialistide klubi"
- target="blank"
- rel="noopener noreferrer">}}
-(or Genklubi for short) on Magasini tn tucked away from the riff-raff of the
-city centre. But still in the centre.
-
-Also features a fantasy
-{{<
- extlink href="https://mapstodon.space/@mappery"
- title="#MapsInTheWild"
- target="blank"
- rel="noopener noreferrer">}} moment. Let's see if you can spot it...
-
-Pühaste Kelder is a craft beer taproom located in the heart of Tartu, proudly serving as the home of the renowned Tartu-based Pühaste brewery. With seating both inside and on the terrace, beer enthusiasts can enjoy a rotating selection of 20 draft beers and several cans and bottles.
-
-Also known as Illekas. In all probability one of the oldest still-functioning
-bars in Tartu dating back to times when some of the LOCers were still in
-middle-school. And some were not born yet.

-The FOSS4G conferences are easy-going and welcoming environments.
-As a session chair, you have the power to create and sustain this attitude.
-Taking the stage before tens and tens of people might be a real challenge for
-some of us. Let's try to make it an enjoyable and comfortable experience for
-all of us - the speakers and the audience.
-
-- Try to make beforehand contact with speakers in the session you are chairing.
-Maybe they have some ideas about how they want to be introduced. This is especially
-useful if you don't know them personally. Chairing a session is a super way of
-getting to know new people.
-- Be there at least 10 minutes before the session begins. That will leave time
-to sort out any problems that may arise.
-- There will be volunteers in the session rooms. They are there to assist you
-and can help you with any technical questions.
-- Slides for the talks in the session will be downloaded to the venue room
-computer by a volunteer from the pretalx schedule at
-**{{<
- extlink href="https://talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-europe-2024/schedule/"
- title="https://talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-europe-2024/schedule/"
- target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"
->}}**. Make sure all the presentations are there before the session starts. If
-there are any issues please consult the volunteer in the room.
-- Your task is to introduce the speaker and the talk. In which way you do it is
-entirely up to you.
-- Also guiding the QA session after the presentation. If and how many questions
-a speaker can have depends on the amount of time available. Although the event
-is streamed, questions will be taken only from the on-site crowd. Please keep
-in mind that because of streaming/recording all spoken word needs to go into
-the microphone even if the venue room is small and it seems pointless.
-- Please stick to the schedule! This is super important for 2 reasons - we have
-five parallel sessions running in different rooms at all times, and there's also
-a live stream audience we need to think about.
- - Talks should start on time (and not before) because there are people coming
- from other sessions, and a live stream audience who are following the schedule.
- - Talks should end on time (and not later) so the session audience will
- have at least five minutes to change to another session/room if they want to.
-- You are responsible for timing the talks. The rooms will be equipped with
-"5 min" and "1 min" signs you can use to signal the speaker for the time that
-is left. So:
- - a regular talk is 20 minutes of presentation time, 5 minutes QA, and 5 minutes
-for changing rooms/speakers.
- - a lightning talk is 4 minutes presentation time, 1 minute changing
-rooms/speakers. No QA time during the slot.
-- What if the speaker does not turn up? You can choose how you fill the
-unexpected break. Please do not, under any circumstances, take the next talk
-in the schedule, there are people in other sessions who have planned to come
-for the talk, too! And please notify the conference program committee about
-the no-show speaker/presentation.
-
-And that should be pretty much it. If you have any further questions please
-feel free to get back to

-The FOSS4G Europe 2024 conference is coming closer day by day, and
-we're happy to report all preparations are well underway and we are gearing
-up for a very exciting event. Let's go over a few points to keep in
-mind when preparing for your presentation.
-
-- Your presentation will be streamed and recorded taking into account
-the boxes you have ticked for your proposal at
-**{{<
- extlink href="https://talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-europe-2024/me/submissions/"
- title="talks.osgeo.org"
- target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"
->}}**. If you answered no to streaming, the video crew has some fantastic
-local wild nature scenes we will be using as a replacement during that time.
-- There will be volunteers in the session rooms. They can help you with any
-technical questions that might arise.
-- Your session will be chaired by someone, who will introduce you and your talk,
-and guide the QA. Although the event is streamed, questions will be taken
-only from the on-site crowd. Please keep in mind that because of
-streaming/recording all spoken word needs to go into the microphone even if
-the venue room is small and it seems pointless.
-- Session chairs will be announced in the days leading up to the conference. If
-you haven't met them before, it's a super opportunity to get to know new
-people.
-- Please stick to the schedule. This is important for 2 reasons - we have five
-parallel sessions running in different rooms at all times, and there's also a
-live stream audience we need to think about. Your session chair will help you
-with timing and will signal you if you need to wrap up quickly. So:
- - a regular talk is 20 minutes of presentation time, 5 minutes QA, and 5 minutes
-for changing rooms/speakers.
- - a lightning talk is 4 minutes presentation time, 1 minute changing
-rooms/speakers.
-- If you have your slides prepared you can upload them as an attachment
-to your talk proposal at the general program
-**{{<
- extlink href="https://talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-europe-2024/me/submissions/"
- title="https://talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-europe-2024/me/submissions/"
- target="blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"
->}}**.
-You can add both, files or URLs to presentations (e.g gh-pages hosted webpages).
-Please try to keep uploaded files less than 10MB in size. You can upload your
-presentation at any time up to 30 minutes before your session starts. But please
-even if you really like living on the edge try not to leave it to the last
-minute. Things piling up somewhere there will not help the conference experience
-for any of us.
-- NB! Academic track presenters! Please use the general program submissions page
-also for Academic Track presentations. Let's collect presentations all under
-the same pretalx event so they are easily accessible from the unified schedule.
-- Internet connectivity is there, but don’t rely solely on it.
-Oddly, things tend to break exactly at the moment of live demos.
-- Using your own laptop is strongly discouraged as it makes
-everybody's lives much simpler if you present your prepared slides from
-the venue computer - we'll have less hassles with setup and no hiccups with
-streaming.
-
-And that should be pretty much it. If you have any further questions please
-feel free to get back to

-Mergin Maps is a field data collection tool built on the free and open-source
-QGIS which allows you to collect, store and synchronise your data with your
-team. It removes the pain of writing down paper notes, georeferencing photos
-and transcribing GPS coordinates. With Mergin Maps, you can get your QGIS
-projects into the mobile app, collect data and synchronise it back on the
-server.
-
-Setting up your project with Mergin Maps only takes a few minutes. First,
-create your survey project in QGIS, then connect it to Mergin Maps with a
-plugin and synchronise it with the mobile app to start collecting in the field.
-
-The data you capture in the field survey is shown on a map and can be exported
-to a wide variety of formats including CSV, Microsoft Excel, ESRI Shapefile,
-Mapinfo, GeoPackage, PostGIS, AutoCAD DXF, and KML.
-
-Mergin Maps allows you to do live position tracking, fill out survey forms
-and capture and edit points, lines or polygons. You can also connect external
-GPS/GNSS devices via Bluetooth for high-precision surveying. Map layers look
-the same as in QGIS desktop so you can set your layer symbology how you want
-it on the desktop and it will appear that way on your mobile device.
-
-Mergin Maps supports offline field data capture for situations where a data
-connection is unavailable. It can be configured to use either offline or
-web-based background maps and contextual layers.
-
-Perks of the Mergin Maps sync system:
-- No need for cables to get your data on/off your device
-- Share projects with others for collaborative working, even offline
-- Updates from different surveyors are intelligently merged
-- Push data back from the field in real time
-- Version history and cloud-based backup
-- Fine-grained access control
-- Record metadata such as EXIF, GPS and external GNSS device information
-- Sync with your PostGIS datasets and external media storage such as S3 and MinIO
-
-Supported field types for forms are:
-- Text (single or multi-line)
-- Numeric (plain, with +/- buttons or with slider)
-- Date / time (with calendar picker)
-- Photo
-- Checkbox (yes/no values)
-- Drop-down with predefined values
-- Drop-down with values from another table
