We just attended #FOSS4GUK in Leeds. It was a fantastic couple of days meeting other GIS & software enthusiasts to learn about WWII coordinate systems, making maps accessible & much more, all using free & open tools anyone can use! We also presented the code and history behind our new map catalogue.
#FOSS4GUK 2025 is a wrap. It was an amazing experience & outstanding success. Our speakers did so well to represent the spirit of OSGeo& #FOSS4G. Our greatest achievement was to welcome so many first time delegates and presenters to carry the torch and define us as a community diverse and united ♥️🫂
