== PROPOSED AGENDA : July 3, 2024 ==
6.45pm: NO ONLINE MEETING JULY & AUGUST 
For the two upcoming summer meetup dates – July 3rd & August 7th – we’ll be switching the meetup to be In-Person only and will meet at local venues rather than at Assembly Coworking Space (we’ll return to Assembly with an online presence again in September). We’d like to make these meetups an even more casual social gathering but also use this time to collect thoughts and input on a new initiative being supported by our OSGeo Alberta Chapter: OpenSource Connect (tentative name)
There are many existing groups and meetups supporting or promoting use of open source technologies – Python, R, Unix, OSGeo projects of course, and more – and we believe there is a value in creating a venue specifically recognizing and promoting well and lesser-known opensource tools and technologies and showcasing collaborative examples and use cases.
This doc, provided in CryptPad end-to-end encrypted and open-source collaboration suite, contains a number of examples and we encourage you to add more, along with your questions and comments: https://cryptpad.fr/pad/#/2/pad/edit/Qz+GUt3MRYdkqEcMXGMznwI0/
In the meantime, here is a great 2023 keynote by Paul Ramsey: FOSS4GNA 2023 | What We Owe One Another: The Political Economy of Open Source https://www.projectgeospatial.com/podcast-archive/foss4gna-2023-what-we-owe-one-another-the-political-economy-of-open-source-paul-ramsey

7.00pm: Attendee Introductions: Stefan, Caitlyn, Tek, Devin, Scott
==Following==
Presentations
* Devin did a super-quick look at some automation he's been trying out with Kue. Like all LLM's, it shows promise but also very confidently makes mistakes. In Devin's example, it repeatedly announced it had added a requested layer when it had not. It was able to do some buffering on command, though, and it seems likely to develop into a very significant tool
Other Business
* Stefan on PGRouting
* OSGeo Rep at Datacon
** Datacon will have a community showcase section. I will likely be in Norway. Do we have other folks who would want to represent this group at that event?
** As it turns out, I will likely be in town but we are looking at booking a work event in that same calendar slot so it is unlikely I can take part and we didn't have anyone chomping at the bit to go. I'll likely decline with Datacon.

7.00pm Attendee intros: Huseyin, Kaitlyn, Stefan, Ala, Scott
==Following==
Presentations
* Huseyin brought up xmap - an AI mapping tool extracting answers from a map. We weren't fully able to ascertain whether whether it was trained on area-relevant data or if it was searching the internet based on the geographical context.
* Ala gave a quick look at some of the work he did using historical DEMs, bathymetry data, and historical georeferenced photos from City of Calgary to model the Glenmore reservoir at the Glenmore Trail causeway to ascertain the structural integrity in the foundation for the pumping station added to the area in 1996. Very interesting. Very cool.

501c4Announcement

== Subject ==
OSGeo Receives 501(c)(4) Tax Exempt Status
== News Date ==
13 September 2013
== Details ==
OSGeo is pleased to announce that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has accepted our application(pdf) for non-profit status under section 501(c)(4) of the tax code. Our 501(c)(4) status declares that we are a Social Welfare Organization. This determination affirms OSGeo's role in serving the public through our mission, focused around Open Source Geospatial software. 
This determination helps ensure that the organization will not have to pay US federal taxes on money accumulated toward the fulfilment of our mission. Unfortunately, unlike a 501(c)(3) (Charitable) status, this does not allow financial contributors to OSGeo to treat the contributions as a charitable contribution which can have a tax benefit for US tax payers. There should still be no problem with commercial organizations treating contributions to OSGeo as a business expense.
OSGeo owes a special debt to past Executive Director Tyler Mitchell, and current Treasurer Daniel Morissette who have carried this process to a successful conclusion after several years of work. Current OSGeo President, Jeff McKenna, says "Both Daniel and Tyler should be thanked by the entire community for their dedication to such a challenging task. Our future foundation events, and OSGeo in general, will benefit from their hard work for years to come."
About the Open Source Geospatial Foundation
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation, or OSGeo, is a not-for-profit organization founded in 2006 whose mission is to support and promote the collaborative development of open geospatial technologies and data. The Foundation provides financial, organizational and legal support to the broader open source geospatial community. It also serves as an independent legal entity to which community members can contribute code, funding and other resources, secure in the knowledge that their contributions will be maintained for public benefit.

=== OSGeo, la fundación para el software libre geoespacial y su capítulo hispanohablante ===
* Autores (de momento): Jorge Sanz
La Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo[1]) es una fundación sin ánimo de lucro que pretende servir de paraguas para la comunidad de software libre geoespacial (FOSS4G). Esta fundación aúna en un foro común a los mejores proyectos FOSS4G, dotando de infraestructura colaborativa a muchos de ellos. La fundación además dispone de comités para la promoción de los datos libres[2] y para la promoción del FOSS4G en la educación[3]. 
Como fundación de intención claramente internacional, tiene como uno de sus principales objetivos la difusión del software en todo el mundo y en todos los idiomas. Para conseguir este objetivo (especialmente el relacionado con los idiomas) se han ido creando divisiones que actúan de forma local para un ámbito geográfico o lingüístico, son los llamados capítulos locales[4]. 
En este contexto hace ya más de dos años se creó un Capítulo Local para trabajar en el ámbito del idioma español, conocido como Capítulo Local de OSGeo para la comunidad hispano­hablante u OSGeo Spanish[5]. Este capítulo, articulado sobre todo a través de una lista de correo[6] y el wiki de OSGeo ha ido evolucionando y creciendo con relativo éxito. Actualmente la lista de correo del capítulo dispone de más de 300 inscritos. 
En esta comunicación se presentará la fundación: su funcionamiento, estructura y formas de participación así como el trabajo realizado en el ámbito del capítulo hispanohablante: como la participación en eventos, apoyo a la traducción de software y documentación, etc.

AGIT

== Introduction ==
The Salzburg University Centre for Geoinformatics is offering an annual forum to the worldwide geoinformatics community, bringing together English-speaking researchers and practitioners across disciplines and industries. Simultaneously, the GI_Forum connects participants into a well established co-located regional symposium - Applied Geoinformatics (AGIT) - sharing the state-of-the art AGIT-EXPO exhibit.
Visit the AGIT GIS convention, conference and exhibition taking place every summer in the beautiful city of Salzburg in Austria. The number of presentations and exhibiting service providers focusing on or referencing Free and Open Source Software projects has again considerably increased. Come to the OSGeo booth to learn more about the OSGeo Foundation.
== Events ==
Ever since the inception of OSGeo in 2006, members of the German language community have helped man a booth, give presentations, spread word about Open Source geospatial and connect with local initiatives and communities. 
* AGIT 2006
* AGIT 2007
