Gabriele Prestifilippo obtained a B.Sc. degree in Computer Engineering at Università degli Studi di Catania in 2014. In 2016 he obtained a M.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering at Politecnico di Milano with a thesis on Geographic Information Systems (GIS), creating a web application to visualize and analyze multidimensional datasets in more than three dimensions. He is a contributor to FOSS community. He is interested in full-stack web development and he is researching about web technologies involved in the GIS field. +
Gavin is passionate about Open Source Software, Open Data and other Open philosophies that lead to interoperability, empowerment of people and helping maximise returns on government spending. He started his GIS career in 1996 after completing an MSc in genetics. His GIS experience includes thirteen years with the full suite of ESRI software but he started the FOSS GIS habit around 2002. He is a registered GISc Professional Practitioner. He worked at GIMS (now ESRI South Africa), CSIR, Mintek and SAEON before starting Afrispatial in 2010 and then Kartoza in 2014, the latter a merger between Afrispatial and Linfiniti (Tim Sutton). +
Chris is involved in the development of several OpenSource Projects. He is one of the co-founders of the GeoExt Mobile (GXM) and SHOGun projects and a committer for GeoExt, GeoExt 2 and GeoExt 3. Furthermore he blogs about tech and is a frequent speaker at international and German conferences (where he shares his love for OpenSource). +
Gildas is a lecturer and researcher at Université d'Abomey-Calavi, more precisely in the Department of Geography and Spatial planning in Benin. His main courses are related to GIS, mapping and spatial analysis mostly using free GIS software. He previously worked at African Regional Institute for Geospatial Science and Technology (AFRIGIST) for two years. During his time there, he helped introduce free GIS software in the students' curricula. He took part to different scientific events focused on GIS and was speaker at first edition of BeOpenGIS in 2014. Most of his work are achieved using free GIS software (GRASS QGIS, SAGA GIS and Orfeo). He is also visiting lecturer at Université Libre de Bruxelles where he gives lectures in spatial analysis using GRASS GIS. +
Luigi Pirelli is a Computer Science Designer and Developer with several years of experience in Earth Observation Systems and Ground Station segment. He worked with ESA main contractors as Telespazio and Advanced Computer Systems (ACS), covering technical roles in system design, software engineering, software development, systems integration and test.
During last years started to contribute to the Italian Geographic Free Software community adding code to the the GRASS and QGIS project and resulting founder of the GFOSS Italian Local Chapter.
Latest experience cover activities in Spanish local chapter where he lives and active contributions to QGIS code and to the international community.
Actually he works only developing for QGIS platform for Boundless Spatial Inc. mainly focused on PKI infrastructure and Continue Integration. +
Greg is an open source and open data advocate. Though he started as a statistical consultant and developer (using FOSS like Debian, R, etc), he ended up in the geo business. Now he consults clients on several areas regarding geodata - mostly within the use of geodata and GIS at public admin clients. He has a strong belief in Open Data, and co-founded the company Septima in January 2013 to utilize the newly released national data. Greg is an avid speaker on the subject of Open Data. +

Hirofumi Hayashi (aka Hayashi) became an OSGeo Charter member in 2010, and is a longtime member of the Board of the OSGeo-Japan chapter. He is very active in the OSGeo-Japan chapter, and directly involved in several OSGeo projects including the ZOO Project (PSC member), OSGeo4W (committing enhancements to the installer, plus translations), GRASS (translations), and MapGuide Open Source. He also works very hard on the planning committee for each FOSS4G-Japan event each year.
Hayashi is a Manager for a large engineering company in Osaka Japan (Applied Technology Co.), and yet still finds time to contribute to the vibrant OSGeo-Japan community.
One of Hayashi's daughters, Natsuki, is the now-famous FOSS4G hand model, the star of OSGeo-Japan's mola mola video, created for the FOSS4G-Japan 2008 event. +
I have been using and occasionally developing open-source software since the mid-1980s, and specifically FOSS4G since 2007. I currently teach occasional classes with FOSS4G and write documentation for using FOSS4G. +
