== Motivation ==

The [[OSGeo Cartographic Library]] and all software projects obviously need a '''free''' map symbol set.

== Mailing List ==
This topic along with the [[OSGeo icon set]] (Toolbar button icons) are discussed on the [http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/graphics Graphics mailing list]

== Available Material ==

* Free map symbol sets from GFOSS.it: [http://www.gfoss.it/drupal/simboli Simboli cartografici]: trees, geology, meteorology and north arrows

Wiki-J03lar50n: /* Members */

== Introduction ==
A local region based chapter of OSGeo on the west coast of the United States. California is home to Silicon Valley, some of the top Public Research/Teaching Universities and some very large industries.

=== Mission ===
(Proposed)
To promote the use and development of open source geospatial software in California.

=== Objectives & Goals ===
* Influence Professional Groups
** Give Presentations to groups with an interest in Open Geospatial and/or [http://www.osgeo.org/geodata| Public Geodata] (see list of [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/California_Chapter:_Outreach_Speakers available speakers])
** Demonstrate diplomacy and interoperability of the OSGeo stack with other solutions(Free or Not) through our activities.
** Represent OSGeo via booths, literature and presentations at academic and professional conferences in the Western US

* Development of OSGeo
** Maintain of list of local groups and events throughout California

*Promote Access to California Geodata
** Annual Award to the agency or institution in California that best exemplifies OSGeo's stance on [http://www.osgeo.org/geodata| Public Geodata]
** Work with the [http://www.osgeo.org/geodata| Public Geodata Project] to Generate a catalog of catalogs, search tools, and metadata harvesters to better enable public access to Geodata.http://www.osgeo.org/geodata
** Promote use of [http://www.osgeo.org/geodata| Public Geodata] Catalogs

== Events ==
We have an [[California/Exhibition Pack|California Chapter Exhibition Pack]], see the page for details if you want to use it.

=== Budget ===
Based on our fund raising efforts we will determine what our [[California/Budget| Budget]] will allow use to do.
The goal for '''2009''' is '''$1500'''..
For 2010 the new focus is on getting several new sponsors for OSGeo in general which would create additional funds for support of chapter activities.

We will be tabling for OSGeo at the [[CGS|California Geographical Society]] annual conference to spread the knowledge of [[FOSS]] tools in the local academic culture. This conference has high attendance from the Cal State University and Community College systems.
This is our 2nd year in a row, last year was great, [[CGS 2008]]

Wiki-J03lar50n: /* Proposed Chapter Goals For 2008 */

== Introduction ==

== Mission ==
(Proposed)
Provide local representation of OSGeo for public outreach and facilitate communication between FOSS4G professionals in the region.

== Objectives ==
(Proposed)
* Represent OSGeo interests at Academic and Professional Meetings in the Western US
* Network Open Source developers and users in California
* Facilitate local subgroups for more frequent interaction
* Work on something not related to ESRI GIS :] (See the section entitiled "Proposed Chapter Goals For 2008").
* Run public workshops and demonstrations of FOSS4G

== Proposed Chapter Goals For 2008 ==
'''Programming'''

* Simple cross-platform and open source metadata editor similar to Metavist or Corpsmet.
* SVG export support in open source GIS programs that would allow cartographic map production in Inkscape.

'''Non-Programming'''

* Catalog of Public GIS Data Sources For California
* Set up OSGeo liason/ambassador with California Land Surveyors Asssociation.
* Prepare documentation/videos on cartographic map production using open source tools like the GIMP, Scribus, and Inkscape.
* Prepare flood control GIS data model.
* Create relationship with/encourage involvement from local colleges and universities.

== Events ==

=== Future ===
(In Date Order)
* [[California/InauguralMeeting|Inaugural Meeting]] of California Chapter
* [[AAG 2009]] - Las Vegas -
* [[CGS 2009]] - Santa Ynez - Always in California, small cheap, outreach to grade schools and non-profits.
* [[Where 2.0 2009]] - San Jose, CA- Paul Ramsey will join us.
* [[AGU 2009]] - SF - It's always in California

=== Proposed ===
* [[AGM 2008]] - What event is this, the acronym is way too common?
* [[CalGIS 2009]] - Sacramento - Might be too expensive
* [[California Central Valley Chapter Incubation Meeting]] - We need to fix a date and place.

=== Past ===
* GIS Day 2008 - UC Berkeley GIF Lab, US EPA Region IX
* [[OSBootCamp OSBootCamp 2008]] - Open Source day at UC Berkeley
* [[CGS 2008]] - Booth at the Calfornia Geographical Society meeting in Chico.
* [[4H Workshop]] - [[User:bwoodall|Bill]] will be running a workshop at UC Davis for 4H high schoolers on GPS/GIS
* [[AGU 2008]] - Open Source Session at American Geophysical Union; San Francisco, CA
