Thank you. Just one second. What of my serious binder? So Thank you for Thank you for having us. OSHO, I represent the Open Source Geospatial Foundation. I'm actually the president of
00:22
the Foundation And we're very honored to be part of this special session regarding the UN and and developing countries So yeah, you may hear me say that a lot, OSHO. So again, it's the Open Source Geospatial Foundation and our whole mission is to promote
00:40
through education and development the use of open source geospatial software and technology We've been around the business for quite a while. We're a large community. We were founded in 2006 OSHO was We're worldwide
01:00
We Have a global focus and we're based on many a lot of the hard work happens at the local chapter level and you'll hear me in a second mention the Korean chapter, which is very important for what I'm going to say, so specifically here OSHO seems to thinks that there's a strong link between
01:20
Open source and the UN mission for example And its member states and its needs just to talk of that first issue When you think of that, you think of solutions that the needs there are solutions that must be open Data that must be open
01:42
you think of maybe some cost issues and And obviously open source geospatial and OSHO's software projects fit very well into the UN the needs of the UN organization We also let OSHO have as you know, maybe we have several
02:01
projects software projects that we that are under our umbrella and I'll mention a few that are that work very well in this term in this sense such as geo network Which is a geospatial discovery Software as well as pi CSW. So I'm just going to name some some projects as well as geo node
02:25
So we have many projects, but there are very active software projects That really fit this this need so we're quite excited to To help out here with our community and the other side working with LH Corp
02:43
We've already started actually to work closely with the land and housing corporation in Korea through the local chapter And actually at the end of today we hope to sign an memorandum of understanding with LH Corp That we've been sort of drafting together
03:02
Where the idea is that the the OSHO community will help out through the local chapter help LH Corp discover open solutions discover communities out there that can help locally here in Korea for the needs of Finding
03:21
solutions for LH Corp and the Korean all of Korea So specifically, I just want to mention quickly a few of the items on the MOU which are very interesting So a strong effort to work together to use open source GIS in the public domain In Korea, so that's that's the first item of the MOU
03:41
That we're working on and then a close cooperation with OSHO through the local chapter As well as Working working together to to introduce the open communities Which I already mentioned and and as well as introducing open geospatial data
04:00
in to the Korean communities Through through this agreement, so we're very excited. So like I said, we're working on that and We're very pleased to be here and we think it's very important to To promote openness and to share and I think these two I
04:22
Think these two fit these two issues fit very well with OSHO's mission So I want to thank you and I'm very excited to hear the upcoming talks Sorry to ramble on a bit, but thank you very much. Thank you
