The annual Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial (FOSS4G) conference brings together the people who create, use, and support open spatial software. No other event brings together members of the open source development, open data creation, and open standards promotion communities like FOSS4G — it is truly a “meeting of the tribes”.

FOSS4G is presented by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation, and is an essential event for:
Developers exploring new tools and techniques for building spatial applications.
Managers interested in how open source is being put to practical use around the world.
Companies looking to connect with open source communities and align their development with open source trends.
Users seeking a more collaborative relationship with their tools and the people who make them.

FOSS4G takes place September 24-27, 2007, at the Victoria Conference Center, in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Attendees at previous conferences have described the event as the best they ever attended — join us and learn why!
