Open Earth Monitor — Global Workshop 2024

The evolution of the OSS4gEO, a FOSS4G resources platform initiative
2024-10-02, 18:50–18:55, Foyer

At the OEMC Global Workshop in 2023, we presented a community led initiative part of the wider Open Innovation framework at European Space Agency that worked to implement an open, interactive, user intuitive platform for a constantly updated, comprehensive and detailed overview of the dynamic environment of the open source digital infrastructure for geospatial data storage, processing and visualisation systems. Today, we have over 450 documented geospatial FOSS projects, interconnected into the FOSS4G ecosystem.
At the OEMC Global Workshop of 2024, the team presents the work done within the next steps, identifying quality metrics for open source software and assess the connection with the health of the associated project and thus paving the way to understand the benefits as well as the pitfalls of certification in geospatial open source software.
The work is supported by ESA, under the Permanently Open Call for Proposals for Future EO-1: EO Science for Society.
