(For those new to CUGOS or curious about what the “Fall Fling” is, read on below.)

The Cascadia Users of Geospatial Open Source (CUGOS) was founded in 2007 and serves as the Cascadia Chapter of the OSGeo Foundation. We are a non-profit community of open source GIS enthusiasts — from students to professionals, from academia to industry, and including active OSGeo contributors (board members, charter members, and project participants).

CUGOS provides a space to share work, exchange ideas, and celebrate the power of open source geospatial tools. Learn more: https://cugos.org/about/

This year’s Fall Fling will be a one-day, low-cost event bringing together academics, professionals, students, and enthusiasts for a full day of presentations on open source geospatial tools and open data in and beyond the Puget Sound region. Talks will cover projects like QGIS, PostGIS, MapServer, GDAL/OGR, OpenLayers, and more (see also: OSGeo projects )

While we’re still building the program, you can get a taste of what to expect by checking out schedules from our previous Fling events:
