&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Articles of association==&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.ejustice.just.fgov.be/tsv_pdf/2015/10/21/15317365.pdf Our official statutes (in french) can be found here].&lt;br /&gt;

* Pieter Colpaert  - link with the open knowledge foundation&lt;br /&gt;
* Ruben Capelle&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Communication ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discussions are held on the dedicated [http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/belgium mailing list].&lt;br /&gt;
Next to the mailinglist there is a (board) meeting planned monthly, most of them trough digital communication. The meeting minutes can be found on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.geomajas.org/osgeogent2013 OSGeoGhent] - 13 June 2013&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== 2016 April 18, Brussels ===&lt;br /&gt;
OSGeo.be will be organising their first GeoDevEvening. The theme will be webmapping and especially Openlayers 3. There will be two speakers, Pierre Marchand of Atelier Cartographique wil give an overview of Webmapping tools. Later we will take a deeper dive with Thomas Gratier, one of the authors of the OpenLayers 3 Beginners guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;'''PRESENT''': Roel, Arnaud, Simon, Johan, Gael&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''AGENDA'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Brainstorming around foss4g BE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our Foss4G is scheduled on 27 October.&lt;br /&gt;
Gael checked if the date is maintained by Brussels Environment. They confirm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the same date (27/10) BEGEO (NGI event) is reprogrammed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=&amp;gt; together we decide not to hold FOSS4G on the same day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But, nobody knows if the big events (Begeo &amp;gt; 1000 people) will be able to be maintained in October.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If it is still forbidden, maybe smaller events like ours can be maintained.&lt;br /&gt;
At the moment we can't say anything for sure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here are a FEW IDEAS:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we can maintain an event this year:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* not same date than BEGEO (27/10) or Trefdag (26/11)&lt;br /&gt;
* preferably a reprogramming in December rather than September.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We may have to consider or be forced to adapt the event to half a day rather than a full day. (reduce contact time).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We can also consider one Foss4g as an Online conference:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We can get inspired by the recent OSGEO.NL experience.&lt;br /&gt;
* We can maybe ask to use some video material at the Fosdem organization&lt;br /&gt;
* We can imagine inviting all the speaker and the organization teams on the same date and same place, to maximize the quality…&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another point briefly evoked:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* How to motivate our sponsors&lt;br /&gt;
* We can announce the next starting of call of paper&lt;br /&gt;
* We can make an announcement that the event will take place this year but that the form of the event and the final date will be communicated shortly (max end of the summer.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TO DO:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Prepare consolidated suggestion or other way for next brainstorming meeting:&lt;br /&gt;
* Complete the poll :&lt;br /&gt;
https://framadate.org/wG6bsAtmeRXAUEXx&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask BE if they have other available this end of year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Suggest short list of another place for the event.&lt;br /&gt;
* Prepare a beer for our next jitsi meeting (same place:&lt;br /&gt;
 https://meet.jit.si/osgeobelgium)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;

== Communication ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discussions are held on the dedicated [http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/belgium mailing list].&lt;br /&gt;
Next to the mailinglist there is a (board) meeting planned monthly, most of them trough digital communication. The meeting minutes can be found on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In 2015 we (OSGeoBE) organised the first [[Belgium/FOSS4G]]&lt;br /&gt;
on 29 October 2015 in Brussels. This event was used to announce&lt;br /&gt;
the birth of our Chapter.&lt;br /&gt;

=== 2016 April 18, Brussels ===&lt;br /&gt;
OSGeo.be will be organising their first GeoDevEvening. The theme will be webmapping and especially Openlayers 3. There will be two speakers, Pierre Marchand of Atelier Cartographique wil give an overview of Webmapping tools. Later we will take a deeper dive with Thomas Gratier, one of the authors of the OpenLayers 3 Beginners guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Articles of association==&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.ejustice.just.fgov.be/tsv_pdf/2015/10/21/15317365.pdf Our official statutes (in french) can be found here].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Communication ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discussions are held on the dedicated [http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/belgium mailing list].&lt;br /&gt;
Next to the mailinglist there is a (board) meeting planned monthly, most of them trough digital communication. The meeting minutes can be found on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.geomajas.org/osgeogent2013 OSGeoGhent] - 13 June 2013&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSDEM2014 FOSDEM2014] - booth 1 &amp;amp; 2 Februari 2014&lt;br /&gt;

* [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 FOSDEM2015]- devroom - 31 Jan; 1 Februari 201&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2015 we (OSGeoBE) organised the first [[Belgium/FOSS4G]]&lt;br /&gt;
on 29 October 2015 in Brussels. This event was used to announce&lt;br /&gt;
the birth of our Chapter.&lt;br /&gt;

=== 2016 April 18, Brussels ===&lt;br /&gt;
OSGeo.be will be organising their first GeoDevEvening. The theme will be webmapping and especially Openlayers 3. There will be two speakers, Pierre Marchand of Atelier Cartographique wil give an overview of Webmapping tools. Later we will take a deeper dive with Thomas Gratier, one of the authors of the OpenLayers 3 Beginners guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Articles of association==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Communication ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discussions are held on the dedicated [http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/belgium mailing list].&lt;br /&gt;
Next to the mailinglist there is a (board) meeting planned monthly, most of them trough digital communication. The meeting minutes can be found on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.geomajas.org/osgeogent2013 OSGeoGhent] - 13 June 2013&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSDEM2014 FOSDEM2014] - booth 1 &amp;amp; 2 Februari 2014&lt;br /&gt;

* [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 FOSDEM2015]- devroom - 31 Jan; 1 Februari 201&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2015 we (OSGeoBE) organised the first [[Belgium/FOSS4G]]&lt;br /&gt;
on 29 October 2015 in Brussels. This event was used to announce&lt;br /&gt;
the birth of our Chapter.&lt;br /&gt;

=== 2016 April 18, Brussels ===&lt;br /&gt;
OSGeo.be will be organising their first GeoDevEvening. The theme will be webmapping and especially Openlayers 3. There will be two speakers, Pierre Marchand of Atelier Cartographique wil give an overview of Webmapping tools. Later we will take a deeper dive with Thomas Gratier, one of the authors of the OpenLayers 3 Beginners guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Articles of association==&lt;br /&gt;

* Pieter Colpaert  - link with the open knowledge foundation&lt;br /&gt;
* Ruben Capelle&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Communication ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discussions are held on the dedicated [http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/belgium mailing list].&lt;br /&gt;
Next to the mailinglist there is a (board) meeting planned monthly, most of them trough digital communication. The meeting minutes can be found on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.geomajas.org/osgeogent2013 OSGeoGhent] - 13 June 2013&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSDEM2014 FOSDEM2014] - booth 1 &amp;amp; 2 Februari 2014&lt;br /&gt;

* [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 FOSDEM2015]- devroom - 31 Jan; 1 Februari 201&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2015 we (OSGeoBE) organised the first [[Belgium/FOSS4G]]&lt;br /&gt;
on 29 October 2015 in Brussels. This event was used to announce&lt;br /&gt;
the birth of our Chapter.&lt;br /&gt;

=== 2016 April 18, Brussels ===&lt;br /&gt;
OSGeo.be will be organising their first GeoDevEvening. The theme will be webmapping and especially Openlayers 3. There will be two speakers, Pierre Marchand of Atelier Cartographique wil give an overview of Webmapping tools. Later we will take a deeper dive with Thomas Gratier, one of the authors of the OpenLayers 3 Beginners guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Mlennert: Minutes of online meeting 08/05/2020&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;'''PRESENT''': Roel, Arnaud, Simon, Johan, Gael&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''AGENDA'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Brainstorming around foss4g BE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our Foss4G is scheduled on 27 October.&lt;br /&gt;
Gael checked if the date is maintained by Brussels Environment. They confirm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the same date (27/10) BEGEO (NGI event) is reprogrammed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=&amp;gt; together we decide not to hold FOSS4G on the same day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But, nobody knows if the big events (Begeo &amp;gt; 1000 people) will be able to be maintained in October.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If it is still forbidden, maybe smaller events like ours can be maintained.&lt;br /&gt;
At the moment we can't say anything for sure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here are a FEW IDEAS:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we can maintain an event this year:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* not same date than BEGEO (27/10) or Trefdag (26/11)&lt;br /&gt;
* preferably a reprogramming in December rather than September.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We may have to consider or be forced to adapt the event to half a day rather than a full day. (reduce contact time).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We can also consider one Foss4g as an Online conference:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We can get inspired by the recent OSGEO.NL experience.&lt;br /&gt;
* We can maybe ask to use some video material at the Fosdem organization&lt;br /&gt;
* We can imagine inviting all the speaker and the organization teams on the same date and same place, to maximize the quality…&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another point briefly evoked:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* How to motivate our sponsors&lt;br /&gt;
* We can announce the next starting of call of paper&lt;br /&gt;
* We can make an announcement that the event will take place this year but that the form of the event and the final date will be communicated shortly (max end of the summer.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TO DO:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Prepare consolidated suggestion or other way for next brainstorming meeting:&lt;br /&gt;
* Complete the poll :&lt;br /&gt;
https://framadate.org/wG6bsAtmeRXAUEXx&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask BE if they have other available this end of year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Suggest short list of another place for the event.&lt;br /&gt;
* Prepare a beer for our next jitsi meeting (same place:&lt;br /&gt;
 https://meet.jit.si/osgeobelgium)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Articles of association==&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.ejustice.just.fgov.be/tsv_pdf/2015/10/21/15317365.pdf Our official statutes (in french) can be found here].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Communication ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discussions are held on the dedicated [http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/belgium mailing list].&lt;br /&gt;
Next to the mailinglist there is a (board) meeting planned monthly, most of them trough digital communication. The meeting minutes can be found on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.geomajas.org/osgeogent2013 OSGeoGhent] - 13 June 2013&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSDEM2014 FOSDEM2014] - booth 1 &amp;amp; 2 Februari 2014&lt;br /&gt;

* [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 FOSDEM2015]- devroom - 31 Jan; 1 Februari 201&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2015 we (OSGeoBE) organised the first [[Belgium/FOSS4G]]&lt;br /&gt;
on 29 October 2015 in Brussels. This event was used to announce&lt;br /&gt;
the birth of our Chapter.&lt;br /&gt;

OSGeo participated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== 2016 April 18, Brussels ===&lt;br /&gt;
OSGeo.be will be organising their first GeoDevEvening. The theme will be webmapping and especially Openlayers 3. There will be two speakers, Pierre Marchand of Atelier Cartographique wil give an overview of Webmapping tools. Later we will take a deeper dive with Thomas Gratier, one of the authors of the OpenLayers 3 Beginners guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== Code Sprint ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This year, we are following the OSGeo tradition of hosting a code sprint right after [http://2019.foss4g.org FOSS4G 2019]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Participation is free of charge and anyone involved or interested in getting involved in OSGeo community projects is welcome.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can choose to contribute to one or more projects. The sky is the limit. There’s always plenty to do – it’s not all about programming. Translation, documentation, feedback, discussions, and testing are very important for projects! Conference registration is not a prerequisite for participation in code sprint.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== When ===&lt;br /&gt;
The code sprint will be held Saturday August 31 2019.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;=== OSGeo participation at  XXIVth ISPRS Congress ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== About ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [http://www.isprs2020-nice.com/ XXIVth ISPRS Congress] will be 14-20. June, 2020 in Nice, France. OSGeo has [[MOU_ISPRS|MoU]] with ISPRS which includes collaboration and participation in conferences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OSGeo was invited to organize:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-  a '''Forum on Geo-Open-Science, Geo-Open-Source and  Geo-Open-Data'''. Our motivation is to encourage increasingly productive exchanges between academia, institutions, industry, and users on important Open Geo subjects. This OSGeo enterprise will necessarily cover *all* aspects of the OSGeo theme, promoting Open-Source and Open-Data policy issues, as well as promoting open science and open technology. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- an '''OSGeo Pavilion''',  where companies supporting open-source will be given increased visibility to help strengthen their impact during the congress.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;== FOSS4G Belgium 2018 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;'''Soumettez votre projet [http://2018.foss4g.be/submit-paper.php ici]''' &amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Après les succès du FOSS4G Belgium en [http://2015.foss4g.be/ 2015], [http://2016.foss4g.be/ 2016] et [http://2017.foss4g.be/ 2017], OSGeo.be organisera le '''25 octobre 2018''' une nouvelle édition de la conférence [http://2018.foss4g.be FOSS4G.BE] à Bruxelles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Les conférences FOSS4G rassemblent les développeurs et les utilisateurs (pouvant être aussi bien des managers que des décideurs) de logiciels libres en géomatique du monde entier afin de parler des nouvelles directions, de passionnantes mises en oeuvre et des opportunités commerciales grandissantes du domaine. Ces dernières années ont vu beaucoup de changements dans le secteur de la géomatique. Un de ces changements est la montée en maturité de ces solutions ainsi que leur déploiement. Dans beaucoup de cas, les organisations utilisent un mixte de solutions ouvertes et propriétaires.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cette rencontre permettra de partager nos connaissances et nos expériences sous la forme de conférences et démonstrations, d'une durée de 25 min chacune.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Nous sommes à la recherche de contributeurs pour cette nouvelle édition du FOSS4G belge.'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Public ciblé ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Le but de la conférence est de toucher un très large public diversifié (plus de 200 personnes).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
La conférence comprendra des séances plénières d'orateurs de renom, ainsi que des sessions parallèles plus spécialisées.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Les présentations et les débats se tiendront en anglais, ainsi qu'en néerlandais et en français.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Plus d'informations seront données sur le site de l'événement : http://2018.foss4g.be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Date et lieu ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
L'événement se tiendra le jeudi 25 octobre 2018 à Bruxelles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Sujets &amp;amp; débats : Outils • Objectifs • Applications ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Outils FOSS4G: Qu'offrent actuellement les outils libres pour le stockage, le traitement et la diffusion web de données spatiales? Comment les outils libres permettent-ils d'adapter les logiciels à vos besoins?&lt;br /&gt;
* Objectifs: Intervention de l'OSGeo dans votre organisation, comment? Quelles perspectives pour le FOSS4G-be? Comment construire une solution Open Source qui rencontre le succès? Comment choisir entre différentes solutions?&lt;br /&gt;
* Applications: Quels outils libres déploie-t-on dans votre administration, entreprise, école/université ou lieu de recherche? Quels impacts pour les infrastructures en lien avec INSPIRE, les problématiques de développement, les changements climatiques ou les SMART Cities? Quelles sont les opportunités ou problèmes rencontrés lors de la migrations d'outils commerciaux vers le libre?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Thèmes spécifiques ==&lt;br /&gt;

Les conférences FOSS4G rassemblent les développeurs et les utilisateurs (pouvant être aussi bien des managers que des décideurs) de logiciels libres en géomatique du monde entier afin de parler des nouvelles directions, de passionnantes mises en oeuvre et des opportunités commerciales grandissantes du domaine. Ces dernières années ont vu beaucoup de changements dans le secteur de la géomatique. Un de ces changements est la montée en maturité de ces solutions ainsi que leur déploiement. Dans beaucoup de cas, les organisations utilisent un mixte de solutions ouvertes et propriétaires.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cette rencontre permettra de partager nos connaissances et nos expériences sous la forme de conférences et démonstrations, d'une durée de 25 min chacune.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
'''Nous sommes à la recherche de contributeurs pour cette nouvelle édition du FOSS4G belge.'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Public ciblé ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Le but de la conférence est de toucher un très large public diversifié (plus de 200 personnes).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
La conférence comprendra des séances plénières d'orateurs de renom, ainsi que des sessions parallèles plus spécialisées.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Les présentations et les débats se tiendront en anglais, ainsi qu'en néerlandais et en français.&lt;br /&gt;

To apply, send us an email (via board [at] foss4g.be) and mention the 2 persons who want to second your candidature before March 20. The election of the new board will take place on March 26, 2018.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If still in doubt, consider joining our online meeting on Tuesday 13 March at 20h: https://meet.jit.si/OsgeoBE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Call for activities =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feel free to provide us (via board [at] foss4g.be) with all activities / events / ideas / suggestions you would like us to organize during the next month. &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
We want to make use of the opportunity of the General Assembly to discuss with all interested people about their areas of interest.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has a long tradition of organizing code sprints for developers of Open Source GIS software.&lt;br /&gt;
(https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Code_Sprints).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simultaneously with the [https://www.fossgis-konferenz.de/2018/ FOSSGIS Conference 2018 in Bonn] an international code sprint of the OSGeo will take place from 19 to 25 March 2018.&lt;br /&gt;
We expect about 80 developers from all over the world to come from various [https://www.osgeo.org/] projects. Whether desktop application, geospatial library, metadata catalog or web mapping: be sure to find products in the list that you use. Thus, the Code Sprint is also an opportunity for your developers to meet with the core developers of the projects, get a deeper insight into the software and participate in the development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The code sprint will take place at [http://www.basecamp-bonn.de/ BaseCamp] in Bonn. During the [http://www.foss4g2016.org/home.html FOSS4G 2016] in Bonn we have already organized a code sprint at this location, in which about 100 developers worked on the open source projects every day. (https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2016_Code_Sprint)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to the costs of providing the technical infrastructure, the cost of food and drinks for the developers is the main cost. A buffet at lunchtime and drinks during the whole day are intended.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So far, the code sprint is already sponsored by [https://www.osgeo.org/ OSGeo] and [https://www.fossgis.de/ FOSSGIS e. V.].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In order to cover the costs, we would be very pleased about further sponsors!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What we offer:&lt;br /&gt;
* Your logo on top of the [https://www.osgeo.org/events/osgeo-code-sprint-2018/ websites of the Code Sprint] [https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Code_Sprint_2018 1] as well as on all official documents around the Code Sprint&lt;br /&gt;
* Mention in all code sprint related mails&lt;br /&gt;
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (Remember that feature you wanted...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our sponsorship levels:&lt;br /&gt;
* Gold: &amp;gt;= 2500 USD&lt;br /&gt;
* Silver: 1500 USD&lt;br /&gt;
* Bronze: 750 USD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So...&lt;br /&gt;
* get your company talking to the top developers of the scene!&lt;br /&gt;
* enable your GIS developers to take advantage of this opportunity, there is no better opportunity to learn!&lt;br /&gt;
* support the software you use - you benefit immediately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you very much!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Contact: To sponsor, please contact codesprint@osgeo.org directly.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has a long tradition of organizing code sprints for developers of Open Source GIS software.&lt;br /&gt;
(https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Code_Sprints).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simultaneously with the [https://www.fossgis-konferenz.de/2018/ FOSSGIS Conference 2018 in Bonn] an international code sprint of the OSGeo will take place from 19 to 25 March 2018.&lt;br /&gt;
We expect about 80 developers from all over the world to come from various [http://www.osgeo.org/] projects. Whether desktop application, geospatial library, metadata catalog or web mapping: be sure to find products in the list that you use. Thus, the Code Sprint is also an opportunity for your developers to meet with the core developers of the projects, get a deeper insight into the software and participate in the development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The code sprint will take place at [http://www.basecamp-bonn.de/ BaseCamp] in Bonn. During the [http://www.foss4g2016.org/home.html FOSS4G 2016] in Bonn we have already organized a code sprint at this location, in which about 100 developers worked on the open source projects every day. (https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2016_Code_Sprint)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to the costs of providing the technical infrastructure, the cost of food and drinks for the developers is the main cost. A buffet at lunchtime and drinks during the whole day are intended.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So far, the code sprint is already sponsored by [http://www.osgeo.org/ OSGeo] and [https://www.fossgis.de/ FOSSGIS e. V.].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In order to cover the costs, we would be very pleased about further sponsors!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What we offer:&lt;br /&gt;
* Your logo on top of the [http://osgeo.getinteractive.nl/events/osgeo-code-sprint-2018/ websites of the Code Sprint] [https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Code_Sprint_2018 1] as well as on all official documents around the Code Sprint&lt;br /&gt;
* Mention in all code sprint related mails&lt;br /&gt;
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (Remember that feature you wanted...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our sponsorship levels:&lt;br /&gt;
* Gold: &amp;gt;= 2500 USD&lt;br /&gt;
* Silver: 1500 USD&lt;br /&gt;
* Bronze: 750 USD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So...&lt;br /&gt;
* get your company talking to the top developers of the scene!&lt;br /&gt;
* enable your GIS developers to take advantage of this opportunity, there is no better opportunity to learn!&lt;br /&gt;
* support the software you use - you benefit immediately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you very much!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Contact: To sponsor, please contact codesprint@osgeo.org directly.&lt;br /&gt;

== Sponsoring ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has a long tradition of organizing code sprints for developers of Open Source GIS software.&lt;br /&gt;
(https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Code_Sprints).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simultaneously with the [https://www.fossgis-konferenz.de/2018/ FOSSGIS Conference 2018 in Bonn] an international code sprint of the OSGeo will take place from 19 to 25 March 2018.&lt;br /&gt;
We expect about 80 developers from all over the world to come from various [http://www.osgeo.org/] projects. Whether desktop application, geospatial library, metadata catalog or web mapping: be sure to find products in the list that you use. Thus, the Code Sprint is also an opportunity for your developers to meet with the core developers of the projects, get a deeper insight into the software and participate in the development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The code sprint will take place at [http://www.basecamp-bonn.de/ BaseCamp] in Bonn. During the [http://www.foss4g2016.org/home.html FOSS4G 2016] in Bonn we have already organized a code sprint at this location, in which about 100 developers worked on the open source projects every day. (https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2016_Code_Sprint)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to the costs of providing the technical infrastructure, the cost of food and drinks for the developers is the main cost. A buffet at lunchtime and drinks during the whole day are intended.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So far, the code sprint is already sponsored by [http://www.osgeo.org/ OSGeo] and [https://www.fossgis.de/ FOSSGIS e. V.].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In order to cover the costs, we would be very pleased about further sponsors!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What we offer:&lt;br /&gt;
* Your logo on top of the [http://osgeo.getinteractive.nl/events/osgeo-code-sprint-2018/ websites of the Code Sprint] [https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Code_Sprint_2018 1] as well as on all official documents around the Code Sprint&lt;br /&gt;
* Mention in all code sprint related mails&lt;br /&gt;
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (Remember that feature you wanted...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our sponsorship levels:&lt;br /&gt;
* Gold: &amp;gt;= 2500 USD&lt;br /&gt;
* Silver: 1500 USD&lt;br /&gt;
* Bronze: 750 USD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So...&lt;br /&gt;
* get your company talking to the top developers of the scene!&lt;br /&gt;
* enable your GIS developers to take advantage of this opportunity, there is no better opportunity to learn!&lt;br /&gt;
* support the software you use - you benefit immediately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you very much!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Articles of association==&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.ejustice.just.fgov.be/tsv_pdf/2015/10/21/15317365.pdf Our official statutes (in french) can be found here].&lt;br /&gt;

===Supporters===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During its founding process, the Belgium OSGeo Chapter had the support of the following persons (alphabetic - first name):&lt;br /&gt;
* Ben Abelhausen  - liason with OSM - Belgium community&lt;br /&gt;
* Pieter Colpaert  - link with the open knowledge foundation&lt;br /&gt;
* Ruben Capelle&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Communication ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discussions are held on the dedicated [http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/belgium mailing list].&lt;br /&gt;
Next to the mailinglist there is a (board) meeting planned monthly, most of them trough digital communication. The meeting minutes can be found on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.geomajas.org/osgeogent2013 OSGeoGhent] - 13 June 2013&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSDEM2014 FOSDEM2014] - booth 1 &amp;amp; 2 Februari 2014&lt;br /&gt;
* [http://be-opengis.ulb.ac.be/ Be-OpenGIS-Fr] - 6 November 2014  &lt;br /&gt;
* [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 FOSDEM2015]- devroom - 31 Jan; 1 Februari 201&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2015 we (OSGeoBE) organised the first [[Belgium/FOSS4G]]&lt;br /&gt;
on 29 October 2015 in Brussels. This event was used to announce&lt;br /&gt;
the birth of our Chapter.&lt;br /&gt;

OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Articles of association==&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.ejustice.just.fgov.be/tsv_pdf/2015/10/21/15317365.pdf Our official statutes (in french) can be found here].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Communication ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discussions are held on the dedicated [http://lists.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/belgium mailing list].&lt;br /&gt;
Next to the mailinglist there is a (board) meeting planned monthly, most of them trough digital communication. The meeting minutes can be found on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;

= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In 2015 we (OSGeoBE) organised the first [[Belgium/FOSS4G]]&lt;br /&gt;
on 29 October 2015 in Brussels. This event was used to announce&lt;br /&gt;
the birth of our Chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Activities =&lt;br /&gt;
=== 2016 April 18, Brussels ===&lt;br /&gt;
On 18 April 2016, OSGeo.be will be organising their first GeoDevEvening. The theme will be webmapping and especially Openlayers 3. There will be two speakers, Pierre Marchand of Atelier Cartographique wil give an overview of Webmapping tools. Later we will take a deeper dive with Thomas Gratier, one of the authors of the OpenLayers 3 Beginners guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the past there where already some OSGeo local activities:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
= Activities =&lt;br /&gt;
=== 2016 April 18, Brussels ===&lt;br /&gt;
On 18 April 2016, OSGeo.be will be organising their first GeoDevEvening. The theme will be webmapping and especially Openlayers 3. There will be two speakers, Pierre Marchand of Atelier Cartographique wil give an overview of Webmapping tools. Later we will take a deeper dive with Thomas Gratier, one of the authors of the OpenLayers 3 Beginners guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenLayers 3 is a JavaScript based library for web mapping, published under BSD license. It groups a set of functionalities to create both lightweight web mapping applications and more heavy web mapping applications for advanced usages. It enables display of geographic features (markers, lines, polygons) with custom styles, most of the time with background maps services from various sources (including OpenStreetMap). It manages all interactions to select, draw geographic entities, display, measure geographic coordinates and manage different Earth representations using cartographic projections.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event will happen at  BEL in Brussels (those who were at FOSS4G.be will remember the place), next monday 18 april at 19:00 until 22:00.  The event is free. You can register here.&lt;br /&gt;

= About OSGeo Belgium =&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wiki page of the Belgium OSGeo chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mission and objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After discussion amongst the active local chapter members we come to the&lt;br /&gt;
following list of mission objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Community-building and networking around specific Belgian themes and within Belgian fora.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Organisation of events&lt;br /&gt;
: These two mission statements are working together. We believe it is important to meet people face2face. To help them to start open source initiatives, to start using open source solutions, to establish an eco-system that benefits from the cooperation, the sharing and the co-creation open source delivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Lobbying&lt;br /&gt;
:  We think it is important to speak as one voice, and to get involved with  other organisations: administrations, industries, user groups, ...   OSGeo. Be will actively speak as an organisation to defend the OSGeo  open source spirit in the broader Belgium community (government,  academic, industry, other open initiatives).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Networking with other OSGeos (notably OSGeo-fr and OSGeo.nl)&lt;br /&gt;
: OSGeo Belgium will focus on local activities (Belgium based). OSGeo Belgium will advertise and promote other OSGeo initiatives and invite members of the other OSGeo chapters on the Belgium events or meetings.&lt;br /&gt;
: We think that OSGeo Belgium can act as a bridge between several language communities and cultures, because of it's unique composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to higher levels of OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
: We believe that OSGeo only can grow if supported from the base. So OSGeo Belgium is willing to help OSGeo where necessary, to leverage idea's or act as an advisor if appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Support to OSGeo in lobbying European Union Institutions (Commission, Parliament, etc) related to specific EU-Themes (INSPIRE, H2020, Procurement policy, ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Articles of association==&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.ejustice.just.fgov.be/tsv_pdf/2015/10/21/15317365.pdf Our official statutes (in french) can be found here].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== History of OSGeo Belgium ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the last FOSDEM [http://www.osgeo.org/node/1488 Geospatial devroom] OSGeo was represented. It&lt;br /&gt;
was a great opportunity for Belgium OSGeo members to meet each other and&lt;br /&gt;
start talking about organizing ourselves a bit more, so actions in&lt;br /&gt;
Belgium can be better supported. Belgium is, as a country divided in at&lt;br /&gt;
least 3 speaking languages and 3 official languages. The active OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
community members today are either active in the [http://osgeo.nl/ OSGeo.nl], the [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Francophone OSGeo.fr]&lt;br /&gt;
or in several OSGeo communities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, OSGeo-nl and OSGeo-fr are language-oriented communities with&lt;br /&gt;
their geographical weight centred in respectively the Netherlands and&lt;br /&gt;
France, and the separation by language has impeded on any specific&lt;br /&gt;
Belgian activities, notably networking and lobbying with administrations&lt;br /&gt;
that are bilingual on some levels of governance. Thus the need arose to&lt;br /&gt;
provide a specific Belgian forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== CodeSprint ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Venue: Bonn, Germany&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This year, once again, we are following the old tradition of hosting a codesprint on the FOSS4G. More precisely, we offer a setting so that individual projects can meet for their codesprint. Since projects benefit from each other as well, the codesprint will naturally be held conjointly at one place.&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately, circumstances have forced us to divide the codesprint timetable-wise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp5.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp6.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp7.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp1.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
'''The first part''' is scheduled to take place directly before the conference, the second immediately after. The first two and a half days start on Sunday, August 21, 2016 at around noon and are scheduled to end on Tuesday, August 23, 2016 (open end). The '''second part''' starts in the morning of Saturday, August 27, 2016 and ends on Sunday at 12 pm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp2.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp3.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
We are happy to have found a really '''awesome location''' for you. Codesprint and accommodations are combined in one hall. Check out  http://www.basecamp-bonn.com/ for details about the venue.&lt;br /&gt;
Working zones will be created for you in the breakfast area and hallways. There’s the option of finding relatively inexpensive sleeping accommodations in train sleeping cars, camping buses, classic cars and more. Additionally, an outdoor area is available for you to enjoy Bonn’s summer weather in August, while working. Healthy and not-so-healthy catering of drinks and snacks will be provided by us. Participation in codesprint is free of charge. However, overnight stays will have to be reserved and paid for by you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp4.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Another hint: the BaseCamp is within '''walking distance from the conference venue''' (WCCB) and has good access to public transportation –  the Icebreaker takes place here, too.&lt;br /&gt;
You see, it’s worthwhile booking here!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
As the accommodations are available to all FOSS4G participants, we will make an effort to make advance booking possible for you a few days ahead, to ensure you have the opportunity to sleep on-site and wrap up the evenings jointly. For that, it’s necessary for you to sign up (https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2016_Code_Sprint) and leave your email address so that we can contact you immediately accomodation booking is available. We need your sign-up for the planning of snacks and drinks, too!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
This is open to all who wish to participate in one or more projects. There’s always plenty to do – it’s not all about programming. Translation, documentation, feedback, discussions, testing – all this is also important for  project so everyone is cordially invited to attend the codesprints! Registration with the conference is not a prerequisite for participation in codesprint.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
One thing we’d like to ask you: with an approx. 120 participants anticipated, the WLAN capacity will naturally be exhausted at some point. Please be sure to avoid huge on-site downloads of data, as this could impact the work of others. Thank you!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Codesprint Organizing Team is looking forward to your coming!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== CodeSprint ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Venue: Bonn, Germany&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This year, once again, we are following the old tradition of hosting a codesprint on the FOSS4G. More precisely, we offer a setting so that individual projects can meet for their codesprint. Since projects benefit from each other as well, the codesprint will naturally be held conjointly at one place.&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately, circumstances have forced us to divide the codesprint timetable-wise.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp5.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Basecamp1.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
'''The first part''' is scheduled to take place directly before the conference, the second immediately after. The first two and a half days start on Sunday, August 21, 2016 at around noon and are scheduled to end on Tuesday, August 23, 2016 (open end). The '''second part''' starts in the morning of Saturday, August 27, 2016 and ends on Sunday at 12 pm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Basecamp3.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
We are happy to have found a really '''awesome location''' for you. Codesprint and accommodations are combined in one hall. Check out  http://www.basecamp-bonn.com/ for details about the venue.&lt;br /&gt;
Working zones will be created for you in the breakfast area and hallways. There’s the option of finding relatively inexpensive sleeping accommodations in train sleeping cars, camping buses, classic cars and more. Additionally, an outdoor area is available for you to enjoy Bonn’s summer weather in August, while working. Healthy and not-so-healthy catering of drinks and snacks will be provided by us. Participation in codesprint is free of charge. However, overnight stays will have to be reserved and paid for by you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Basecamp4.png|200px|thumb|right]]&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Another hint: the BaseCamp is within '''walking distance from the conference venue''' (WCCB) and has good access to public transportation –  the Icebreaker takes place here, too.&lt;br /&gt;
You see, it’s worthwhile booking here!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
As the accommodations are available to all FOSS4G participants, we will make an effort to make advance booking possible for you a few days ahead, to ensure you have the opportunity to sleep on-site and wrap up the evenings jointly. For that, it’s necessary for you to sign up (https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2016_Code_Sprint) and leave your email address so that we can contact you immediately accomodation booking is available. We need your sign-up for the planning of snacks and drinks, too!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
This is open to all who wish to participate in one or more projects. There’s always plenty to do – it’s not all about programming. Translation, documentation, feedback, discussions, testing – all this is also important for  project so everyone is cordially invited to attend the codesprints! Registration with the conference is not a prerequisite for participation in codesprint.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
One thing we’d like to ask you: with an approx. 120 participants anticipated, the WLAN capacity will naturally be exhausted at some point. Please be sure to avoid huge on-site downloads of data, as this could impact the work of others. Thank you!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Codesprint Organizing Team is looking forward to your coming!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
