== Mission ==

'''The mission of the UK Chapter broadly follows the general [[OSGeo Mission]], with emphasis on the following areas: (please add and edit as you see fit):'''

* To provide a forum for discussion and promotion of Open Source Geospatial Software in the UK
* To help more UK organisations discover the opportunity of open source geospatial tools, and collate business studies of successful transitions
* To raise awareness of the benefits of public access to geodata in the UK by collating links to sources of legitimate free data

In addition we would like to work towards the following:

* A fully-featured open access UK SDI
* Someday hosting the FOSS4G conference in the UK

== Links to Case Studies ==

In progress- please add any appropriate links here

* City of Munich move to a completely open source software solution [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Image:Free_softw.pdf (pdf)]
* Interview with CIO of Oxford Archaeology on the move towards open source [http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/news/article/0,289142,sid39_gci1315258,00.html]

== Publicly Available Geodata ==

In progress- please contact the mailing list if you have any legitimate free sources of geospatial data that you would like to include

[[Public Geodata for the UK]]

Also check the [http://ckan.net/tag/read/geodata CKAN pages] for geodata sources- mainly global but some UK

== Mailing List ==

== Meetings and Events ==

One really useful role of a UK OSGeo chapter would be as a focal point for organising meetings - evening presentation sessions or short seminars with Q and A afterwards.

=== Upcoming Events ===

'''24-25th September 2008:''' [http://www.agi.org.uk/ AGI Geocommunity 08]. While we have been unable to secure a room for a meetup at this event, we should aim to get as many interested people together, even if it's just for a chat at lunchtime.

'''29th September - 3rd October 2008:''' [http://conference.osgeo.org/foss4g/2008 FOSS4G 2008]. This is the big international conference for OSGeo. We will be doing a short report at the AGM on the progress we have made with the UK local Chapter. Perhaps people who are attending and would like to meet up with fellow brits could put their names here, or arrange on the mailing list to meet up?

=== Recent Events ===

'''16-17th June 2008:''' Meetup during the University of Nottingham's [http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/geography/geowebservices/ Geowebservices workshop]. We are looking for people to help promote OSGeo at the event- check out the mailing list for details. See the wiki page [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_UK_Meetup_June_2008 here] for further details and discussion.

'''1st May 2008:''' UK OSGEO meetup after 1Spatial Conference at Radisson Hotel, Stansted. This is your chance to decide what a UK local chapter should do! See the wiki page [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_UK_Meetup_May_2008 here] to sign up.

'''8th-10th December 2006''':
The UK-originated [http://openguides.org/ OpenGuides] Open Source spatial wiki project is having a pub meetup and "hackfest" in Oxford - http://dev.openguides.org/wiki/OxfordMeetup2006
: There will be a few OpenStreetMap people at this event too (there's a fair degree of overlap). Crash space is available, and nice pubs will be visited!

'''
Tuesday September, 26th 2006''': Steve Coast of OpenStreetmap fame gave a talk to the BCS entitled Geospatial Open Source Activity. Details at [http://geospatial.bcs.org/site/index.php?s=future-events#3 http://geospatial.bcs.org/site/index.php?s=future-events#3]

[http://openstreetmap.org/ OpenStreetmap] also have regular UK mapping parties in different cities
