== Goals ==

The main goal is to work on OpenLayers and extend its capabilities to support mobile d[[Image:Mobile.jpg|thumb|right|283x516px]]evices.

The second goal is to evaluate Mobile JavaScript libraries, like Sencha Touch or JQuery Mobile and begin creating bridges to these libraries, similar to the way that GeoExt connects OpenLayers and ExtJS<br>

back to [[FOSS4G 2010]]

= Introduction =
During the [http://2010.foss4g.org/ FOSS4G2010 conference] in Barcelona, Spain, there will be conference rooms available for people to hold Breakout Sessions (aka Birds-of-a-Feather).

Breakout Sessions sessions are unstructured timeslots where people can self-organise themselves to discuss topics of interest.

This year, Breakout Sessions sessions will be held on Wednesday 8th September ('''and possibly at other times as well - depending on interest'''). A number of rooms will be available. Most popular sessions will get bigger rooms.

'''Room allocation to be determined'''

==Organising Contact==
* [[Tyler Mitchell]]
* [[Mauricio Miranda]]
* Other volunteers welcome - sign up here!

==Timeslots Available==

At this stage, each room is scheduled for one hour between 18:00 to 19:00.

Remember the Gala Dinner is scheduled at 20:00.

=Room Assignments=
== Rooms Available ==

We will need to share the biggest rooms because we have more sessions than rooms.

Add your name to the "Moderator" column if you feel as a session's leader.

Please, contact us to ask for changes.

|-
| B5.S101
|| W1
|| Web Mapping with GeoServer
|| You supply the laptops, we supply the software and data.
|-
| B5.S101
|| W8
|| Getting Started With MapServer
|| No additional material is required. Optional: bring your own datasets to load into your web mapping application. Intermediate/advance questions will be accommodated if time permits.
|-
| B5.S201
|| W2
|| gvSIG 1.9 user workshop
|| the workshop will run on the OSGeo LiveDVD so we suppose we don't need hard and soft additional.
|-
| B5.S201
|| W9
|| Quantum GIS and PostGIS: Solving Spatial Problems and Creating Web-Based Analysis Tools
|| "Quantum GIS v1.4.0 Enceladus" or newer, installed on workshop computers or available on the FOSS4G LiveDVD. Please use Windows "Standalone" version, not the "OSGeo4W" installer version. Internet access to the instructor's PostGIS and WMS/WFS server.
|-
| B5.S202
|| W3
|| Setting up an OpenStreetMap rendering toolchain
|| Hardware: One computer per person, plus overhead projector. Standard internet connection. Nothing out of the ordinary. Software: Already installed in the computers: PostGIS, Mapnik, Mapnik support scripts, Apache2 web server, and mod_tile. Computers *must* run Linux in order for Apache+mod_tile to work. Some other workshops may use PostGIS and Apache, so it should be coordinated. PHPPGAdmin would be a plus. Available somewhere in the workshop CDs: OpenLayers, plus some sets of geodata (global shorelines, plus a small excerpt of OpenStreetMap data). Total size of this data should be around or less than 100 MB. The workshop tutor will provide all materials prior to the workshop. All software in the computers should be tested beforehand, so it is desirable to have a disk image or install CD the tutor can try out ahead of time. Atendees should not bring anything special. All the needed software and data should be readily available in the computers, plus a CD (or pendrive, or similar device).

|| Introduction to PostGIS
|| Windows XP computers.
|-
| C6.S302
|| W11
|| Working with OpenLayers
|| Participants will complete exercises on a PC (any OS) that is running a web server (e.g. Apache). Participants will need to edit text files with an editor and view examples in a browser. The workshop also requires GeoServer and Postgres w/ PostGIS running. We can provide software and data to be installed in advance of the workshop. In previous workshops, GeoServer has been installed and running, PostGIS configured with workshop data, and Apache configured to proxy GeoServer on port 80 and provide an alias to the workshop document root. We can provide documentation on setting all this up and can help if workshop machines are available before the workshop date. So, requirements are - * PostGIS (configured with data) * GeoServer (running on port 8080 or other) * Apache (configured to proxy GeoServer on port 80 and with alias to workshop document root) * Text editor * Web browser (Firefox recommended).
|-
| C6.S306
|| W5
|| Introduction to the Mapbender Geoportal Framwework
|| The workshop will run completely on the Mapbender Portal provided by OSGeo, no software will be installed during the course all that is needed is a web terminal. Attendees who want to work with their own copy of the software should either install it on a server that is available via internet during the workshop or on their own notebook. To the experienced geoportal operator the installation is straight forward, all information can be found on the Mapbender web site http://www.mapbender.org. If you want to install you own copy but are new to either GIS, web technology, mapping, OGC standards or any combination thereof it is recommended to start the installation well in advance to the workshop as it involves a web server, database, PHP, Mapbender internet accessibility. You will get all the help that you need to set up the system and get it to run properly on the http://www.mapbender.org/index.php/Mapbender_Mailing_Lists.

|| computer and ZOO-CD (ZOO-Binaries, GDAL/OGR library and dependencies).
|-
| B5.S101
|| W14
|| Practical Introduction to GRASS
|| For the workshop we need: - GRASS (one of the 6.4 series, 6.4.0RC5 is currently available); - the standard North Carolina GRASS demo data set, the "smaller simpler subset (47MB)" (http://grass.osgeo.org/sampledata/north_carolina/nc_basic_spm.tar.gz) is sufficient; - our HTML tutorial; - our PDF file containing the introductory slides for the workshop. The last years we used our own live DVDs, especially tailored for the Conferences (see for example the 2009 DVD here: http://www.ing.unitn.it/~grass/software/FOSS4G2009_GRASS_beginners_DVD.html), but we can provide our tutorial as a Debian and Ubuntu package, so that it can be included in the OSGEO Live DVD. Since this is a beginners' workshop, it is fundamental that GRASS' version in use matches the one used in the workshop material, so that all the details correspond. Therefore, if the OSGEO Live DVD is used we need to know which GRASS version will be included at least a month in advance, to review all the material. No special hardware is required, maps in the dataset are quite small, therefore a fairly modern Pc will do. No network connection is required, unless you want the attendees to download the tutorial and the dataset. It is possible to use attendees' laptop (some of the attendees have used their own Pc last year in Sydney), but we must be reasonably sure they have a working GRASS installation. Again, the GRASS version can be critical. Last year I have helped some of them to setup their machine via email before the workshop. The use of a live DVD on a Pc provided by the organization is probably the best choice for most of the attendees, since they are not required to setup GRASS before the workshop but they can take the DVD home and re-run the workshop. They can also use the DVD as an installer.
