The OSGeo-Philippines Local Chapter (OSGeo-PH) is happy to announce that we will have our very first FOSS4G event in the country. This is in partnership with the Philippine Geomatics Symposium (PhilGEOS 2012) on November 22-24, 2012 at The College of Engineering (CoE), University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City.
PhilGEOS 2012 is the 1st symposium on Geomatics in the Philippines. “It is envisioned to be a major gathering of educators, researchers and the industry in the field of Geomatics from different parts of the country.”
The FOSS4G track will be a pre-symposium activity (November 22, 2012) showcasing and demonstrating many of the Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial technologies. This will be full day of workshop and technical demonstrations.
Go here to register for the FOSS4G workshops.
Sidenote: Having the privilege to attend several local and regional FOSS4G events the last 12 months, I am very happy to co-organize the first one in my country.
Maning, pwede ba kami mag-attend sa FOSS4G workshops at the PhilGEOS 2012 Symposium? I am very interested. I am sure Ma’am Mildred and Dr. Simpol will find this very useful in their respective geospatial-related research endeavours.
Congtrats, pre. Galing mo.
