Wiki-SimonAbele: /* People */

== Mission ==

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

* To provide a forum for discussion and promotion of Open Source Geospatial Software in the UK
* To help more UK organisations discover the opportunity of open source geospatial tools
* To support the development of a fully featured [[UK SDI]]
* To provide a starting point for people from the UK who are new to the Open Source Geospatial movement
* To raise awareness of the benefits of public access to geodata in the UK
* To work with OGC members in the UK to promote the implementation and development of open standards for geodata exchange
* To, maybe, one day, act as focal point for a UK-hosted and organised FOSS4G conference

== Mailing List ==

Discussion list:
* http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/uk
* <s>http://lists.openarchaeology.net/mailman/listinfo/osgeo-uk</s>

== Meetings and Events ==

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

=== Upcoming Events ===

'''17th March 2007''':
An [[Public Geospatial Data Project|Open Geodata]] session at a one-day event on Open Data covering geodata, civic information and scientific data, organised by the [http://okfn.org/ Open Knowledge Foundation]; See the description at [http://blog.okfn.org/2006/12/14/open-knowledge-10-london-saturday-17th-march-2007/ OKFN - Open Knowledge 1.0] and contact [[User:JoWalsh|Jo]] if you have questions or demos you would like to present.

=== Recent Events ===

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

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

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

'''Don't forget to sign the Inspire petition -and tell your friends too - you don't have to use geo-data to believe that publically funded work should be public property! http://petition.publicgeodata.org/
