At FOSDEM 2025 the Geospatial devroom only had half a day, and we still ended up with a packed room and a queue down the corridor.
In 2026 we have the whole of Saturday to ourselves, so if you have something geo-flavoured to share, whether it is maps, data, tools, clever hacks, fieldwork tech, city projects, OSM magic, climate work or anything else, now is the moment to submit a proposal.
The CfP is open until 1 December:
