All other costs - food, outings and entertainment - should/will be covered by the sponsors

== Financial ==

'''Detailed budget'''
* [[Bonn_Code_Sprint_2018_:_Budget|Budget]]

== Individual preparation ==

* Bring your own laptop
* Bring [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country your power connector adapter] if needed (photo: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Schuko_plug_and_socket.png Germany]). See also http://www.power-plugs-sockets.com/
* Install GIT and compiler tools, and come with a working development environment

== Sponsoring ==

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has a long tradition of organizing code sprints for developers of Open Source GIS software.
(https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Code_Sprints).

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.
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.

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)

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.

So far, the code sprint is already sponsored by [http://www.osgeo.org/ OSGeo] and [https://www.fossgis.de/ FOSSGIS e. V.].

In order to cover the costs, we would be very pleased about further sponsors!

What we offer:
* 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
* Mention in all code sprint related mails
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (Remember that feature you wanted...)

Our sponsorship levels:
* Gold: >= 2500 USD
* Silver: 1500 USD
* Bronze: 750 USD

So...
* get your company talking to the top developers of the scene!
* enable your GIS developers to take advantage of this opportunity, there is no better opportunity to learn!
* support the software you use - you benefit immediately.

Thank you very much!

Contact: To sponsor, please contact codesprint@osgeo.org directly.

== OSGeo Google Summer of Code 2014 ==

The [http://www.osgeo.org Open Source Geospatial Foundation] would like to extend a welcome to all SoC students. On this page you will find links to a host of ideas organized by project. You will find ideas ranging from the depths of computer science graph theory to the heights of visualization. One thing all these ideas have in common is lots and lots of spatial data.

These ideas are '''*only*''' to motivate you, and serve as example of the kind of hills we want to charge up. Your own ideas are more than welcomed - they are encouraged. We view you as the next wave of open source leaders; show us what you've got.

* '''Students: If you need more information on how to apply you can contact all the mentoring organisations via the OSGeo-SoC mailing list''' ([[#How to get in contact via mailing lists|see below]])

* There is a [http://code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code/wiki/GsocFlyers Google SoC flyer] to look at and post in appropriate places and [http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/flyer/google_summer_of_code/OSGeo_GSoC_2013.pdf an OSGeo flavoured one as well].

* Ok, [[OSGeo]] is involved in working with maps and things, but what kind of projects does it really do? Have a look at the [http://planet.osgeo.org/ live blog feed] to see what people are working on right now.

the title, for example: "Gee Whiz Foobar 2001 for QGIS")

Describe your idea
1. Introduction
2. Background
3. The idea
4. Project plan ('''detailed timeline''': how do you plan to spend your summer?)
5. Future ideas / How can your idea be expanded?

Explain how your SoC task would benefit the OSGeo member
project and more generally the OSGeo Foundation as a whole:

Please provide details of general computing experience:
(operating systems you use on a day-to-day basis, languages you
could write a program in, hardware, networking experience, etc.)

Please provide details of previous GIS experience:

Please provide details of any previous involvement with
GIS programming and other software programming:

Please tell us why you are interested in GIS and open
source software:

Please tell us why you are interested in working for OSGeo
and the software project you have selected:

Please tell us why you are interested in your specific
coding project:

Would your application contribute to your ongoing studies/
degree? If so, how?

Please explain how you intend to continue being an active
member of your project and/or OSGeo AFTER the summer is over:

Do you understand this is a serious commitment, equivalent
to a full-time paid summer internship or summer job?

Do you have any known time conflicts during the official coding
period? (May 19 to August 18)

== What to expect during the summer ==

* A group of past GSoC students, mentors, and Googlers have prepared this short book just for you:
: [http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2011/02/flip-bits-not-burgers-student-guide.html Flip bits not Burgers: The Student's Guide to the Summer of Code] -- READ THIS eBOOK

=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===

You and your mentors will decide on the specifics, but we will expect you and your mentor to communicate *a lot*. Part of the idea of SoC is to integrate you into the developer community, so you should get involved with them from the start. The more you communicate the easier it will be. Don't be afraid that the mentors will request your phone number. It is only to make sure that we can reach you in case of problems, like making sure you get paid.

University exams and semester terms vary widely, if we know ''in advance'' that you need a week off to study, or that you've already scheduled a short vacation to somewhere off the grid, that's fine and won't count against you. But you need to ''communicate'' this up front so we can make a plan to work around it.

=== Weekly reports ===

Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:

# What did you get done this week?
# What do you plan on doing next week?
# Are you blocked on anything?

These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)

If you want, feel free to write *more*. But three sentences is the bare minimum. *IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU SEND YOUR PROGRESS REPORTS ON TIME*, if you don't send this email your mentors will start to get twitchy, and *especially* if they don't get any responses to their emails / don't see you in IRC. Twitchy mentors is not what we want. If you are blocked by finals, that's cool. We have all studied at some point, just tell us about it up front, be honest, and we'll work around it. If you don't know how to proceed and your mentor isn't answering *definitely* tell about it. The SoC project admins will always be available. Basically the point is that you open up the communication channels, and keep them open. That way you will have a super summer, and get paid ;)

Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.

=== Wiki page and blogs ===

In addition to weekly reports we require you to maintain a wiki or blog page for your project. You should store your weekly reports there and add other information, like how to compile and test your program. If applicable add screenshots and other nice info.

Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.

We plan to link all of the students' blogs to the [http://planet.osgeo.org OSGeo Planet] blog aggregator for maximum community exposure and hopefully early feedback from the experts who read it, which may save you a lot of time and trouble if, for example, some obscure wheel has already been invented by another partner project.

Final reports from those blogs and wiki pages will be collected into a OSGeoofcode posting about what everyone did during the summer, ensuring you long lasting fame and fortune. (''Or failing that, a bit of public press, a bit of cash from Google, and a lot of gratitude and kudos from us, your peers.'')
