Wiki-TheSteve0:

== 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.
