&lt;div&gt;== Code Sprint ==&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;

 &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;

 &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;

 &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;== Code Sprint ==&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: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: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;== Code Sprint ==&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: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;== Code Sprint ==&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;div&gt;== Code Sprint ==&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;

== A Mentor's Responsibilities ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Being a mentor can take anywhere from 2-10 hours a week of your time depending on the student (it really ''is'' in your best interest to take on the strongest students you can find :). You must have the time to be responsive and an advocate for the student. No matter how cool the project is and how much your team needs the job done, if you can't commit to supporting it, experience shows that the best thing to do is not start it, i.e. even with the best of intentions don't set a student up to fail. Long story short, student projects simply can't go ahead without proper mentoring support.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every student project will also have a '''backup mentor''', this person should come from your programming team and should at minimum keep up to date with the student's weekly developments. The best way is if the student is well integrated into your development team from the start, it lessens the workload on you and betters the buy-in from the rest of the community once you're ready for the final code merge.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You '''must''' be available at some time during the '''midterm and final evaluation period'''. If you will be away during these time periods please arrange with the OSGeo org admins and your backup mentor so that one of us can fill in your answers for you. These are hard cutoffs -- evaluations ''must'' be filed within these dates.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== Cover Letter from the OSGeo Board of Directors ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Board of the [http://osgeo.org Open Source Geospatial Foundation] (OSGeo) is presenting this letter to the geospatial community at large. The letter highlights concerns about the need for standards in LiDAR data formats, from many people within the OSGeo community. Although specific organizations are named in the letter, the OSGeo Board of Directors would like to focus on the general importance of standards in the industry, and learn from this example so we can make geospatial information easily accessible to all users.  As always, if there is anything that the OSGeo Board can do to help, then please let us know.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=Open Letter of the Need for Open Standards in LiDAR=&lt;br /&gt;
April 2015.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We, the undersigned, are concerned that the current interoperability between LiDAR applications, through use of the open &amp;quot;LAS&amp;quot; format, is being threatened by ESRI's introduction and promotion of an alternative &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; '''''proprietary format.''''' This is of grave concern given that fragmentation of the LAS format will reduce interoperability between applications and organisations, and introduce vendor lock-in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We request that:&lt;br /&gt;
# The OGC initiate the formalisation of an open standard for storing LiDAR data, and that OGC sponsors help prioritise the development of this open LiDAR standard.&lt;br /&gt;
# ESRI support the OGC in their [http://www.opengeospatial.org/ogc/vision mission] &amp;quot;to advance the development and use of international standards and supporting services that promote geospatial interoperability.&amp;quot; In particular, ESRI joins with the OGC in consolidating an Open Standard for use of LiDAR data. This might include proposing ESRI's &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; as an Open Standard to remove any technical or legal hurdles in use of &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; as an Open Standard. A simple test to determine if &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; can be used as an Open Standard would be if &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; can legally be implemented by Open Source software such as libLAS or LASzip.&lt;br /&gt;
# Users and sponsors of LiDAR data, publicly state their preference for the use of an open LiDAR format over proprietary when selecting software and services.&lt;br /&gt;
# The custodians of the open LAS format [http://www.asprs.org/LD-Division/LAS-Working-Group.html LAS Working Group (LWG)], who are part of [http://www.asprs.org/ American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS)], request the term &amp;quot;LAS&amp;quot; not to be included in the name of a proprietary format, as it makes such a proprietary format appear to be an approved derivative of LAS.&lt;br /&gt;

=Background=&lt;br /&gt;
==About LiDAR==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lidar LiDAR] (Light Detection And Ranging) is a form of high precision range measurement, much like a radar system, but one that uses laser light instead of radio waves. The standard LiDAR product is a 3D point cloud that can be conceptualized as a series of point measurements representing distance between the sensor to a returned emission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For over a decade (since 2003), there has been a common format for storing LiDAR data, the [http://www.asprs.org/Committee-General/LASer-LAS-File-Format-Exchange-Activities.html “LAS” format], and open source libraries have been developed to read, write and process these LAS files: [http://live.osgeo.org/en/overview/liblas_overview.html libLAS] and [http://github.com/LASlib/LASlib LASlib]. These libraries have been incorporated within many LiDAR applications, allowing read/write access to a common exchange format, and resulting in full interoperability between the applications. There is also an open source compression algorithm for the LAS format called [http://laszip.org LASzip] that many LiDAR data portals use to compress LAS into smaller LAZ files for faster download. Many LiDAR software packages have added [http://laszip.org/#software-with-native-laz-support native support] for these compressed LAZ files.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==LAS Limitations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Quoting [http://boundlessgeo.com/2014/01/lidar-format-wars/ Paul Ramsey]:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: LAS format is not without its drawbacks:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* While it is a binary format and does not waste any space unnecessarily, neither does it apply any compression to the data it stores. That’s not good for archival use.&lt;br /&gt;
:* Also, LAS stores points in scan order, so accessing any particular chunk of points involves reading the whole file. That’s not good for random access.&lt;br /&gt;
: Clearly there is a little more work to be done. Can LAS be improved? In fact, it already has been:&lt;br /&gt;
:* An open source compression library, LASzip can apply 20''':'''1 lossless compression to LAS files, making them great for archival purposes.&lt;br /&gt;
:* Other LAS users have experimented with re-ordering points in a LAS or LASzip file to allow random access to internal chunks of the LIDAR point cloud.&lt;br /&gt;
: Basically, making LAS smaller and faster is not rocket science, and if the work were incorporated into libLAS then the whole LIDAR community could leverage it together, and the user community would only have one file type to interchange.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=='Optimized LAS' A ''' ''Proprietary'' ESRI Format'''==&lt;br /&gt;
ESRI announced, 12 January 2014, the release of an [http://www.lidarnews.com/content/view/10214 &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot;] format which is claimed to provide faster access and smaller file sizes (similar to the open [http://laszip.org LASzip] format). This announcement created a outburst of vocal protest in the LiDAR community [[http://rapidlasso.com/2013/12/30/new-compressed-las-format-by-esri/ 1] [http://boundlessgeo.com/2014/01/lidar-format-wars/ 2] [http://www.spatiallyadjusted.com/2014/01/15/las-laz-lazzip-zlas-and-you/ 3] [http://www.northrivergeographic.com/archives/lidar-software 4] [http://boundlessgeo.com/2014/01/lidar-format-wars-2/ 5] [http://boundlessgeo.com/2014/02/lidar-format-wars-3/ 6]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The implementation of the &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; format is not available as Open Source and the format and algorithm details itself are undocumented, which means nobody can currently create alternate implementations, neither closed nor Open Source. This causes both technical as well as legal barriers for other applications reading and/or writing to this proprietary format. It creates a vendor lock-in scenario which is contrary to the principles of the Open Geospatial Consortium, the OSGeo Foundation, and many government IT procurement policies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One year after releasing the &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; format, ESRI released a Windows only library (DLL) as a free-of-charge (gratis) download that is claimed to convert between LAS and &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot;. Note there is a distinct difference between a &amp;quot;free-of-charge&amp;quot; binary distribution of DLLs and publishing something as &amp;quot;Open Source&amp;quot;. Unless the source code of the library is released as Open Source under an Open Source license, libLAS and related products will be legally prevented from incorporating ESRI's reader/writer code into their codebase, or from fixing any underlying bugs or performance limitations which may exist in ESRI's product.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ironically, ESRI later placed their '''binary''' library files [http://github.com/Esri/esri-zlas-io-library on github] accompanied by an Apache License, but no source code was published. The distribution of binaries without source code is allowed by Apache License, but very uncommon and misleading, to say the least. The practice goes against the basic idea of “Open Source” and the Open Source Initiative (OSI) even has an FAQ entry on the obvious contradiction of [http://opensource.org/faq#non-distribution “Open Source” without source code].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==OGC's Efforts For An ''' ''Open'' LiDAR Standard'''==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [http://www.opengeospatial.org/ Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC)] has indicated their interest in developing a standard LiDAR format.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Carl Reed (formerly on OGC staff) provided the following information on OGC's previous efforts to work toward enabling Open Standards in LiDAR:&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;quot;Over the last 8 or so years, the OGC approached ASPRS at least twice regarding LAS and worked with ASPRS to bring LAS into the OGC for consideration as both a Best Practice and an OGC standard. OGC member Rick Pearsall worked diligently on this. Rick worked for NGA, was active in the OGC, and was also the Standards Committee chair at ASPRS. Rick and Carl tried and failed. These attempts go back to [http://www.asprs.org/a/society/divisions/ppd/ppd_meetings/2007springppdreport.pdf at least 2007]. More recently, Carl Reed had an email dialogue with Lewis Graham to bring LAS into OGC as an OGC Best Practice. Carl thought progress was being made, but then for some reason all communication stopped.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.opengeospatial.org/ogc/organization/staff/ssimmons Scott Simmons] (Executive Director, Standards Program) has explained the OGC's continuing interest in pursuing point cloud encoding standards, including a member-initiated mechanism to extend LAS data with OGC-standard XML content.&lt;br /&gt;
: The OGC invites interested members who wish to work on this effort to please contact Scott Simmons (Executive Director, Standards Program  E-mail : ssimmons@opengeospatial.org) to register their interest and discuss details.  OGC will also be holding an ad hoc session at the OGC's next [http://www.opengeospatial.org/event/1506tc Technical Committee meeting in Boulder, CO, USA in early June] to bring together all interested parties from all sectors (government, industry, academia) for this and plan next steps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History: LAS and ESRI's 'Optimized LAS'==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Martin Isenburg, one of the leading experts in LIDAR formats, and creator of [http://rapidlasso.com/LASzip LASzip], [http://rapidlasso.com/LAStools LAStools] and [http://rapidlasso.com/PulseWaves PulseWaves], explains the history of LAS and &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''Summary:'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:* The LAS format has been used successfully for over a decade.&lt;br /&gt;
:* Within last couple of years, ESRI has added native LAS support into ESRI products.&lt;br /&gt;
:* ESRI discussed embracing the open [http://laszip.org LAZ] format and simultaneously developed a proprietary &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; format.&lt;br /&gt;
:* The open geospatial community offered, on numerous occasions, to work with ESRI to avoid format fragmentation.&lt;br /&gt;
:* ESRI's proprietary &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; format is very similar in design and performance to the open [http://laszip.org LASzip] format.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''1998: Original LAS format definition'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: The original development of the LAS format started in 1998 according to [http://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/lasroom/zKqchDj1JL4/discussion Lewis Graham]. The effort was at first led by pioneers of the LiDAR industry until the format was donated to the [http://www.asprs.org/Committee-General/LASer-LAS-File-Format-Exchange-Activities.html ASPRS]. Since then ASPRS's [http://www.asprs.org/LD-Division/LAS-Working-Group.html LAS Working Group (LWG)] has been maintaining the LAS format, guiding it from the initial LAS 1.0 version until today's LAS 1.4 version. This effort successfully created an open data exchange format for discrete LiDAR points that is currently supported by practically every LiDAR-related software program.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''2011: ESRI joins LAS Working Group'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: ESRI did not join the LWG of the ASPRS until rather late, the 24th of August in 2011. At that time ESRI was not a significant &amp;quot;player&amp;quot; in the LiDAR market given they did not have much support for LiDAR in any of their products. That was to change soon as they were planning to add LAS as a native data type in ArcGIS 10.1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Shortly before that, in June 2011, Martin Isenburg received a personal message from the ESRI development team: &amp;quot;I have a question about LAS compression. I’m evaluating some potential enhancements and support for [LAS and] LAZ is one of them. Compression time and amount is impressive.&amp;quot; When inquiring two months later about the status of [http://laszip.org LAZ] integration Martin was told: &amp;quot;We’re in beta and working to finish the current release. I very much doubt LAZ will make it in because it’s too big a change at this time. So, we’ll be considering, for the following release, [for] what we want to do regarding compression and spatial indexing.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''June 2012: ArcGIS 10.1 includes [proprietary] LAS Dataset file'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: In June 2012 ESRI released ArcGIS 10.1 and introduced the proprietary &amp;quot;LAS Dataset file (*.lasd)&amp;quot; that groups collections of files into one logical unit. This format of this useful LAS container file was not shared with others despite several private and eventually [http://groups.google.com/d/topic/lastools/jwHpi0efUgA/discussion public] requests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''2012/2013: Collaboration Discussions'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: There were encouraging follow-ups from the ESRI team about adopting the open LAZ format in January 2012: &amp;quot;I would be interested in having a more in depth meeting with you to better understand the great work you are doing with LAS and how we can possibly better partner on this.&amp;quot; and again in December 2012: &amp;quot;If you have time, I'd like to set some time aside Tuesday afternoon to meet with &amp;lt;an important person&amp;gt; at the ESRI booth. Does 2pm sound okay?&amp;quot; The meeting went well and it looked as if ESRI was going to embrace the LAZ format because shortly after the meeting Martin got word that: &amp;quot;I hear from &amp;lt;an important person&amp;gt; that it was a  success and that he had a good meeting with you. I wanted to see if we can have a telephone discussion on Wednesday or Thursday this week related to the potential of incorporating LAZ into ArcGIS.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Then the first signs of hesitation showed. First there were legal issues raised in February 2013: &amp;quot;Currently the legal aspects are being reviewed. They were having some issues separating the LPGL aspects from LASzip from the remainder of LAStools etc.&amp;quot; and then in April 2013 concerns about the code were made: &amp;quot;We have started to look into the integration of LAZ, but came across some issues. We don’t want to copy files from the other package, mix and match or hack around. We were hoping for an API to stream points out of a LAZ file as well as write LAZ files. There should be a simple code sample for that?&amp;quot; and - following up on that - in June 2013 Martin was told &amp;quot;I see value in LASzip becoming a de-facto standard that provides compression to the LAS format. If this is to happen then it needs to be bundled together with appropriate reference implementations, examples and documentation as a standard and so ensure that issues as defined earlier in email do not occur.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''June 2013: ESRI asked to sponsor clean LASzip DLL'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: At that time [http://laszip.org LASzip] was an open source project without sponsorship. The original funding from [http://www.erdc.usace.army.mil/Locations/ColdRegionsResearchandEngineeringLaboratory.aspx USACE] that had turned [http://laszip.org LASzip] from an academic prototype into an industry strength compression engine had long run out. So Martin asked ESRI to become a sponsor to create the clean [http://laszip.org LASzip] API that ESRI was after. The answer was: &amp;quot;ESRI often helps in the financing of Open Source projects and I could foresee ESRI possibly helping in LASzip. [...] If you are interested in promoting LASzip as such a standard and doing the required work then I would recommend you put together a proposal and I can look to get ESRI as a sponsor.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Immediately Martin proposed to ESRI: &amp;quot;I hereby propose to write an easy to use open source DLL wrapper for LASzip that will make it easier to integrate LASzip in a standardized manner into other software products such as ArcGIS, LP 360, or Terrasolid. This will come with example code on how to use the DLL for reading and writing LAZ files and include a few compressed example files. I hereby ask ESRI to provide funding for this effort without imposing any limitations on the produced DLL API.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''July 2013: ArcGIS 10.2 includes [proprietary] LAS indexing '''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: With the release of ArcGIS 10.2 in July 2013, ESRI introduced spatial indexing to speed up area-of-interest queries. Their new proprietary *.lasx files were seemingly identical in functionality to the open *.lax files that had been [http://groups.google.com/d/topic/lastools/j0qA8NBMHJs/discussion announced] two years earlier - in May 2011 - and were [http://rapidlasso.com/2012/12/03/lasindex-spatial-indexing-of-lidar-data/ presented] at ELMF in November 2012.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''July 2013: Open LASzip API released'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: After more requests for an easier interface to [http://laszip.org LASzip] (in particular for [http://forsys.cfr.washington.edu/fusion/fusionlatest.html USDA's FUSION]), Martin [http://groups.google.com/d/topic/lastools/oplsDhhnhDQ/discussion released] a clean, well-documented, and easy-to-use LASzip DLL (without ESRI funding). Martin expected that developers at ESRI would now use it to add read and write support for [http://laszip.org LAZ] to their next release of ArcGIS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''December 2013 : ESRI discovered to be secretly developing proprietary LAS format'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: In December of 2013, several LAStools users contacted Martin with suspicions that ESRI may be creating a proprietary LAS compression. Martin [http://rapidlasso.com/2013/12/30/new-compressed-las-format-by-esri/ broke the news] as soon as it became evident that ESRI had used the time it needed to resolve &amp;quot;legal issues&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;code problems&amp;quot; to put together their own proprietary compressed format with near-identical performance and functionality to [http://laszip.org LASzip]. A few days later ESRI released an [http://www.lidarnews.com/content/view/10214/ official FAQ] to confirming this was the case. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: From day one, Martin has worked with stakeholders, including ESRI, to avoid format fragmentation. Martin's core argument for resolving this to everybody's benefit was that - coincidentally - a natural break was happening in the LAS format with the introduction of the new LAS 1.4 point types. Martin outlined a detailed plan for how a joint development of [http://laszip.org LASzip] for LAS 1.4 between rapidlasso and ESRI could exploit this natural break in the LAS format to accomplish two things at once:&lt;br /&gt;
:# Add the unspecified technical additions that ESRI had hinted at desiring, and &lt;br /&gt;
:# Extend the [http://laszip.org LASzip] compression scheme to handle the new point types introduced with the LAS 1.4 specification. As there was no pressing need at the time to handle LAS 1.4 Martin had delayed the extension of [http://laszip.org LASzip] to the new LAS 1.4 point types to make sure a cooperation with ESRI would remain a viable option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''1 April 2014: Positive reception to &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; / LASzip collaboration April Fools announcement'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: In an attempt to convince ESRI management of the community desire for an open standard, Martin released an April Fools' Day [http://rapidlasso.com/2014/04/01/esri-and-rapidlasso-develop-joint-lidar-compressor/ prank press release] pretending that ESRI had already agreed to the envisioned collaboration to develop a joint LiDAR compressor. Community [http://rapidlasso.com/2014/04/01/esri-and-rapidlasso-develop-joint-lidar-compressor/ jubilant reactions (see comments)] left no doubt about the sentiment on this issue within the LiDAR community.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''October 2014: Announcement of [open] LAS Compatibility mode'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: [http://www.csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/ Digital Coast, NOAA Coastal Services Center] became a Gold Sponsor of [http://laszip.org LASzip] for the development of the [http://rapidlasso.com/2014/10/06/rapidlasso-announces-laszip-compatibility-mode-for-las-1-4/ LAS 1.4 compatibility mode] that was [http://groups.google.com/d/topic/lastools/nUFMkKSz53g/discussion beta-released] in November 2014. This allowed support for the new point types in [http://laszip.org LASzip] without closing the door on a potential cooperation with ESRI for a joint LAS 1.4 compressor. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: '''November 2014: ESRI announces proprietary extension to LAS 1.4'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: In November 2014 [http://blog.lidarnews.com/esri-las-optimizer-updated ESRI announced] that they had added their [http://blog.lidarnews.com/esri-las-optimizer-updated own extension] for the new LAS 1.4 point types to &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot;, dismissing the opportunity to develop a joint compressor and avoid format fragmentation by exploiting this &amp;quot;natural break&amp;quot; in the LAS format as Martin had suggested.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Since then, ESRI has been [http://rapidlasso.com/2014/11/06/keeping-esri-honest/ promoting] &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot;. By including the term &amp;quot;LAS&amp;quot; in &amp;quot;Optimized LAS&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;zLAS&amp;quot;, the distinction between the open LAS format and proprietary format is blurred. This is likely to mislead novice and future users, thereby endangering many years of standardization work. To date, [April 2014], the [http://www.asprs.org/a/society/committees/standards/LAS_1_4_r13.pdf custodians of the LAS format], the LAS Working Group (LWG) of the ASPRS has [http://rapidlasso.com/2015/02/22/lidar-las-asprs-esri-and-the-laz-clone/ yet to make an official statement] regarding use of the &amp;quot;LAS&amp;quot; name in promoting a proprietary LiDAR format.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Value of Standards=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The importance of Open Standards is described in most government IT policies. For instance, the United Kingdom policy states:&lt;br /&gt;
: … Government assets should be interoperable and open for re-use in order to maximise return on investment, avoid technological or supplier lock-in, reduce operational risk in ICT projects and provide responsive services for citizens and business. This should also lower barriers to entry for more diverse sources of IT services, including citizens and SMEs. &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;All about Open Source – [http://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/78959/All_About_Open_Source_v2_0.pdf An Introduction to Open Source Software for Government IT], Version 2.0, United Kingdom Cabinet Office&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The value of Open Standards has been described in numerous national studies on the effects of standards on economic growth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: ... the national studies demonstrate that standards have a positive influence on economic growth due to the resulting improved diffusion of knowledge. The contribution of standards to the growth rate in each country is equivalent to 0.9% in Germany, 0.8% in 0.3% in the UK and 0.2% in Canada. &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Prof. Dr. Knut Blind, Prof. Dr. Andre Jungmittag, Dr. Axel Mangelsdorf [http://www.din.de/sixcms_upload/media/2896/DIN_GNN_2011_engl_akt_neu.pdf &amp;quot;The Economic Benefits of Standardization&amp;quot;], ''DINN, 2000''.

== OSGeo Google Summer of Code 2014 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''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]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Mentors, there's an additional link providing some tips and specifying your responsibilities on the main OSGeo [[Google Summer of Code 2014]] wiki page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Important dates ==&lt;br /&gt;

 Explain how your SoC task would benefit the OSGeo member&lt;br /&gt;
  project and more generally the OSGeo Foundation as a whole:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please provide details of general computing experience:&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;br /&gt;
 Would your application contribute to your ongoing studies/&lt;br /&gt;
  degree? If so, how?&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please explain how you intend to continue being an active&lt;br /&gt;
  member of your project and/or OSGeo AFTER the summer is over:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Do you understand this is a serious commitment, equivalent&lt;br /&gt;
  to a full-time paid summer internship or summer job?&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Do you have any known time conflicts during the official coding&lt;br /&gt;
  period? (May 19 to August 18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What to expect during the summer ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* A group of past GSoC students, mentors, and Googlers have prepared this short book just for you:&lt;br /&gt;
: [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&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Weekly reports ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# What did you get done this week?&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you plan on doing next week?&lt;br /&gt;
# Are you blocked on anything?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the &lt;br /&gt;
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Wiki page and blogs ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.'')&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''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]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Mentors, there's an additional link providing some tips and specifying your responsibilities on the main OSGeo [[Google Summer of Code 2014]] wiki page.&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please explain how you intend to continue being an active&lt;br /&gt;
  member of your project and/or OSGeo AFTER the summer is over:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Do you understand this is a serious commitment, equivalent&lt;br /&gt;
  to a full-time paid summer internship or summer job?&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Do you have any known time conflicts during the official coding&lt;br /&gt;
  period? (May 19 to August 18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What to expect during the summer ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* A group of past GSoC students, mentors, and Googlers have prepared this short book just for you:&lt;br /&gt;
: [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&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Weekly reports ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# What did you get done this week?&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you plan on doing next week?&lt;br /&gt;
# Are you blocked on anything?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the &lt;br /&gt;
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Wiki page and blogs ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.'')&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== OSGeo Google Summer of Code 2014 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''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]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Mentors, there's an additional link providing some tips and specifying your responsibilities on the main OSGeo [[Google Summer of Code 2014]] wiki page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Important dates ==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Weekly reports ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# What did you get done this week?&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you plan on doing next week?&lt;br /&gt;
# Are you blocked on anything?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the &lt;br /&gt;
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Wiki page and blogs ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.'')&lt;br /&gt;

== OSGeo Google Summer of Code 2014 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''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]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Mentors, there's an additional link providing some tips and specifying your responsibilities on the main OSGeo [[Google Summer of Code 2014]] wiki page.&lt;br /&gt;

   5. Future ideas / How can your idea be expanded? &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Explain how your SoC task would benefit the OSGeo member&lt;br /&gt;
  project and more generally the OSGeo Foundation as a whole:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please provide details of general computing experience:&lt;br /&gt;
  (operating systems you use on a day-to-day basis, languages you&lt;br /&gt;
  could write a program in, hardware, networking experience, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please provide details of previous GIS experience:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please provide details of any previous involvement with&lt;br /&gt;
  GIS programming and other software programming:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please tell us why you are interested in GIS and open&lt;br /&gt;
  source software:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please tell us why you are interested in working for OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
  and the software project you have selected:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please tell us why you are interested in your specific&lt;br /&gt;
  coding project:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Would your application contribute to your ongoing studies/&lt;br /&gt;
  degree? If so, how?&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please explain how you intend to continue being an active&lt;br /&gt;
  member of your project and/or OSGeo AFTER the summer is over:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Do you understand this is a serious commitment, equivalent&lt;br /&gt;
  to a full-time paid summer internship or summer job?&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Do you have any known time conflicts during the official coding&lt;br /&gt;
  period? (May 19 to August 18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What to expect during the summer ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* A group of past GSoC students, mentors, and Googlers have prepared this short book just for you:&lt;br /&gt;
: [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&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Weekly reports ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# What did you get done this week?&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you plan on doing next week?&lt;br /&gt;
# Are you blocked on anything?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the &lt;br /&gt;
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Wiki page and blogs ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.'')&lt;br /&gt;

== OSGeo Google Summer of Code 2014 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* '''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]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;br /&gt;
 Explain how your SoC task would benefit the OSGeo member&lt;br /&gt;
  project and more generally the OSGeo Foundation as a whole:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please provide details of general computing experience:&lt;br /&gt;
  (operating systems you use on a day-to-day basis, languages you&lt;br /&gt;
  could write a program in, hardware, networking experience, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please tell us why you are interested in GIS and open&lt;br /&gt;
  source software:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please tell us why you are interested in working for OSGeo&lt;br /&gt;
  and the software project you have selected:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please tell us why you are interested in your specific&lt;br /&gt;
  coding project:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Would your application contribute to your ongoing studies/&lt;br /&gt;
  degree? If so, how?&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Please explain how you intend to continue being an active&lt;br /&gt;
  member of your project and/or OSGeo AFTER the summer is over:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Do you understand this is a serious commitment, equivalent&lt;br /&gt;
  to a full-time paid summer internship or summer job?&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
 Do you have any known time conflicts during the official coding&lt;br /&gt;
  period? (May 19 to August 18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What to expect during the summer ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* A group of past GSoC students, mentors, and Googlers have prepared this short book just for you:&lt;br /&gt;
: [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&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Be prepared to be in constant communication with your mentors and project ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Weekly reports ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, every week we expect to see a report posted to the soc@osgeo mailing list that at least answers the following questions:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# What did you get done this week?&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you plan on doing next week?&lt;br /&gt;
# Are you blocked on anything?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These questions BTW are the same as are used in real-work, when developing with the &lt;br /&gt;
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) Scrum] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development development process]. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Last year this weekly report proved to be very popular among the students and mentors alike, so we will keep it up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Wiki page and blogs ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wiki and/or blog space can and will be provided by OSGeo if your project doesn't have anything already set up for this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.'')&lt;br /&gt;
