00:07
Okay. Hello again, everyone. What a week. It actually was quite fast, but very, very
00:27
intense. So we are all here three days after we started to close this wonderful gathering. And of course, you could do this by saying thank you. So in the name of OSGO, the
00:45
WIS conference, we'd like to say thank you. Thank you for coming, and I hope you enjoy it. Big thank you, I guess. And we have, like, 1,020-plus participants, which is pretty good,
01:05
I guess. I'll be very brief, because it's quite late, and we have things to do, pubs to go to. I'll give you some numbers. So we have a full week. We have 42 workshops
01:21
on Monday and Tuesday. We have seven labs, 297 presentations, plus one. We had one interesting presentation about Brazil and what happens there, just ad hoc, improvised and introduced into the program. We had marvelous nine keynote talks, just ended. It's difficult to talk after Skyler
01:46
or Ivan or, yeah, Matt. And we had two B2B meetings, 70 Birds of the Feather meetings. We have a cold spring tomorrow. We had everything on tape, mostly everything.
02:10
So we are very proud to announce that 11 tracks were streamed live and recorded, because we have a great team from Germany. You can say hi. We are somewhere looking on the camera
02:25
to us. So Chaos Computer Club video team did amazing work, and I don't think you saw it, because they are all day in a small dark room, working for you and for the bigger,
02:43
for the larger community who is not here, but it's all over the globe, looking on the live streams or enjoy these talks in a couple of days as the videos. Actually, most of them are already up, and when, by the time we are ending this and we have one more beer at the
03:04
pub race, at Leisure Cafe, maybe, this will all be online for you to enjoy it, and I don't know. So thank you for the video team. They are great.
03:21
And yeah, we survived like two social events, seven plus hour longs with open bar. I'm really, really proud of you, from my knowledge, from my knowledge, and I hope nothing will change
03:44
in the near future. No complaints have been registered. No code of conduct violation was registered. So this is, this is fine. We are safe, even with open bar, not such a long time. So we have a great time, first in the Bragaduro Palace on Wednesday at the icebreaker,
04:05
and then yesterday in the Parliament building. It was big crowd, happy people. We enjoyed the discussions, and yeah, some of the strong ones went to the pub after that. Oh yeah, yeah.
04:26
Daniel, did you have any, where is Daniel? He's here. Did you do a big chair in the morning, I guess? Daniel chaired the Leisure party at five, so that was a good, good session. Thank
04:42
you. So of course, what to expect? Phosphology morning run, 69 people registered, 12 show up, but it was reported that two more show up after that, so, but it was a good thing. So
05:08
14 people really run across the House of the People, and yeah, it looked pretty fit, and yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You should do like, like these guys. Okay, all I want to do now with this talk
05:26
is to have a very, very long thank you list. I mean, I don't think I put everything in here because it's very, very difficult, so it's, I have to, to spend a year to go back and see how many people in the institution we might, we have to thank for, for having this event.
05:45
So if you are not in this list, apologize. I, it's not intentionally. Of course, we have to, to first thank to our mother organization, to OSGO for hosting such a, such a nice event here in Romania. We are very proud of this. We had, we get so much in this, since 2006,
06:11
since OSGO is, is alive, and it's producing things, and I'm not the only one very grateful for this because I think our professional life are different because of this organization. So
06:25
thank you, OSGO. Long life to OSGO. Of course, we need money, so for this we need, we need sponsors, and I'll go again for the sponsors. GeoCAD is our platinum sponsor. Thank you, GeoCAD.
06:48
We have three gold sponsor, TerraSigna, Heer Technologies, and Copernicus ECMWF. Thank you.
07:01
The silver sponsor, Open GIS, CS, H, Google, Camp2Camp, CI, Information Services, ESRI, and Dell Technologies. Thank you. We have bronze sponsor like Mundialis, Terrestris,
07:22
Omnisci, Sourcepol, GeoSolution, CloudFero, GeoOps. Thank you. And of course, we have supporters sponsor, Eirx, EuDoeb, Soft Business Union, Gaia3D, Deimos, CS Romania, Safe Software,
07:42
Septima, Titellus, Essensus Software Solution, Oikumena, MicroMapper. I could not, this is, New Light Technologies and MabGear. Thank you all for supporting this conference.
08:05
Of course, we don't need only money, but we need support, and this is also very important, and this translate in people working for us, connecting us with various institutions, I don't know, putting resources on our disposal, so they are very important. So, as I mentioned,
08:23
on Wednesday, we had a strategic partner, which is Romanian Space Agency, and many other partners, like my institution, Romanian National Meteorological Administration, at the University of Bucharest, who hosted us for the workshops, for the code sprint, and for the QJS contributors
08:42
meeting. The European Commission for Copernicus, the European Space Agency, the Group on Earth Conservation, United Nation, OGC, Commission, again from INSPIRE, European Associations of Remote Sensing Companies, Space Tech Partners, the Faculty of Geography, or the University
09:00
of Bucharest, ISPRS, TAV Portal, the place where our video will be stored for long-time preservation. Again, our wonderful video team at the Chaos Computer Club, or AGO Live, provided they use big sticks and the infrastructure to run many of the workshops.
09:23
The Hungarian Association for Geography, sorry, not really, I don't want to make a mistake, the Romanian Cartographic Association, the Romanian Ministry of Tourism, and a wonderful Romanian
09:41
Association of Radio Amateurs that allow us to communicate, ask the organizers quick and fast. Thank you. As you saw before, we had this EO Data Challenge competition, which was much more
10:00
complicated than I imagined at the beginning, but it was possible because all these companies and institutions provided us with support, with money for the prizes. You only didn't mention, but the prizes are in the range of 2,000 and 2,500 each, so thank you. We have many other partners,
10:26
the media partners, the ones that help us spread the word about this conference and get a thousand and something attendees. We have the knowledge partners, Locate Press and Manning. We have the clever, our mobility partner, the safe partners, the smooth, the professional, they're
10:42
here all the time in case of someone else, some of us not feeling good. We have like so-called taste partners, where the pub race usually happens, so that was not bad at all, I guess, and community partners. Yeah, thank you. Now I would like to go to people. This event was not
11:12
possible without volunteers, and we have plenty of them, and I would like to ask the remaining volunteers, I know there are not too many in the room, but all of them in blue t-shirt or
11:22
whatever t-shirt you have today, please come on stage and you please applaud and say thank you. So all the volunteers on the stage, please, come on, on the stage, please, come on,
12:02
come on volunteers, show up. So we have volunteers from the rooms taking pictures, helping with the video, doing tours, all kind of things. Thank you. So these are the surviving one.
12:34
The list is like 60 something or more. Oh come on, come on, come on. Yeah, thank you for
12:47
your help. It was great because without you we could not run this conference. Thank you again. Let's move. Stay, stay, stay on the stage. Please don't go, please don't go. Yeah, I have
13:03
all kind of things that you did, but of course the hard work like started a year ago, went to the Bucharest local organizing committee and the conference committee, like a program committee, worship committee, code spring committee, all these committees that
13:22
work together to make this conference a success, and I'd like to ask all the members of the stage, please, thank you. Come on, come on. Quite a big group, quite a big group, yeah, yeah.
14:06
You need a lot of people to do a conference apparently, yeah. So you all did a great job. I'll not say names. It's difficult not to miss anyone, but it was not easy, not easy at all to deal with the logistics, with the volunteers, with the program, with a lot of, lot of issues,
14:25
and yeah, and we managed to pull it off somehow. I'm very proud of you. Thank you again.
14:46
We have a number of people, some part of this, some not, but in a way or another help us, and we are not all of them here, but I put in this with what I quickly remember just before,
15:02
just during the keynote. So I'll put a few people, and I also ask them to to go on stage, and after this, or I don't know, I have some, we have some Romanian wine for them, and yeah, let's see the name. So Michael Turner, Astrid Emde, Jorge Roja, Volker Michi,
15:22
Till Adams and Marcus Netler. Please go on stage. Steven Ramage, Dennis Cardy, Skyler Erne, Joachim Tepiski, Maria Mocano, wonderful lady, help it a lot, Constantine Marinca, Jordi Garnett, Gérald Fenois,
15:58
Maria Broveli, Stefan Meissel and Joachim Unger, Maria Arias, Terena and Yvonne Sanchez,
16:07
Angelos, please, Matt Hansen, Mike Smith, Sankey Shin, and some that are not here, but I'd like to thank to Steven Feldman,
16:21
Stefan Orevich, Laura Comonescu, Lauren Saran and Andrea Aime, and to the others I didn't mention, because I was not, I was not careful enough to see you all. You did a great deal for us, you help us with devices or whatever, and this this help is much appreciated and important,
16:46
and because we started without really knowing how to how to move in this, with this conference, of course past chairs and people with experience in running, I don't know, past
17:01
past events, workshops, code sprints, and so ever, they all help us, and we are grateful and honored that we had the chance to work with them. Thank you again,
17:23
we are a lot of people, but without our wonderful professional organizer and the partners, we could not do much, because we don't know how to negotiate with venues, we don't know, we know to eat food, but we don't know to purchase food for a thousand people, or drinks or whatever, so, and to organize all those things, so I put some of the names,
17:44
we are much more, but I, I was able to, to, so if you're in the room, please also get on stage, thank you, I have to thank Andrea, Andrea is our professional organizer, where are you,
18:08
Andrea means huge for this event, it's difficult to explain how many things he did for us,
18:41
and for you, and we don't pay her for most of the things he's doing as an organizer of this event, he put so much on his heart, and I'm a little bit nervous right now, because it was, it was a huge help, and we really appreciate everything, thank you, thank you, and I also
19:15
have to thank to, to geospatial.org, so this is the OSU Romania, this is my friends,
19:23
and I didn't have the courage to, to go through this endeavor without, without having in, in the back or in front or whatever, so we established this group so many years ago in, in 2006, and we are doing all kind of activities related to, to promoting access to free software,
19:45
free data, open standards here in Romania, and somehow we expanded, and we got this event here, have you all here, and in time we became friends, and it's, it's, it's really hard to talk about this right now, but yeah, without, without you guys, this was not being possible, so I thank you,
20:07
and yeah, apologize when I was maybe rough or tough or whatever, I didn't mean it, it's just, thank you, yeah, I think it's the end, it's, I have no conclusion, I didn't have time to write
20:33
the conclusion, I was locking the keynote, so I could not make conclusion, but it was fun for sure, it was really fun, so thank you again to a thousand and twenty plus participants,
21:04
it was a great, it was quite a ride to arrive here, and then it was amazing event, it, it went very fast, it's time to, to recover, it's a no, I see no, I don't know any better way to do that
21:21
than to, to go for another pub race, but please also show up tomorrow at the code sprint, okay, thank you, this is hot water, thank you, la presidenta, yes, I want to thank you in
21:42
fantastic best for you ever, no, that, that, that may be bad, yes, thank you, thank you for that, it's great, and now it's, it's, it's time to,
22:24
to pass the burden to some other team that will, will learn hard, that it's, it sounds like easy when they, they apply, but the hard part is just starting, so you might know that Phosphor G 2020 goes to Canada, and I'd like to invite our,
22:45
both co-chairs of the, of the next Phosphor G to tell a few, to tell us a few, a few words about what we plan to do next year, and yeah, and to invite you to another great Phosphor G event, come, so, thank you, thank you very much, I'm, I'm John Neufeld, I'm one of the
23:27
co-chairs, this is Brad Ashley, he's the other co-chair, we're, we're incredibly excited to have the opportunity to host you in Calgary next year, so thank you very much, we're going to make this as quick as we can, because we realize that, you know, we're between you and,
23:42
and the pub race, so, obviously, you know, most people here know how to use a map, but we thought that we would start out with a little bit about Calgary, so Calgary's 100 kilometers east of the Rocky Mountains, we're at an elevation of a thousand meters above sea level, and as of today at noon, we were 12 degrees cooler than Bucharest, so I'm looking forward to
24:06
it, we've recently undergone a large-scale infrastructure project in our city, we've built on a giant new wing for the international travel, and so what that means is we now have
24:20
30 direct flights straight from Europe every day, so if you're, if you're flying in from Europe, we now have 30 direct flights from Heathrow, Frankfurt, all of these places. Additionally, as I said, we're only 100 kilometers from the Rockies, so every day we have this beautiful backdrop of the snow-capped peaks of the Rockies, and it just gives us a nice backdrop
24:42
to our energetic city. As a city, we are 1.8, sorry, 1.8, that's Bucharest, as a city we are 1.3 million people, we're growing rapidly, and our technology sector is growing rapidly at the same time, we're seeing growth in all sorts of geospatial-dependent areas, including drones,
25:03
including clean technologies, and including things like wearables and smart cities. It's exciting to see these domains growing, and we hope you can come and see them for yourself. We don't have a theater like this in Calgary in which to host you, but we do have our TELUS
25:20
Convention Center, which you can see here. It's right in the heart of Calgary, right downtown, it has hotels attached right to it, and it's on a beautiful, beautiful pedestrian walking mall. That walking mall can take you past our brand new central library. I gotta say, I've never stood on a stage and mentioned a library before, but this thing is ridiculous. It's winning
25:41
architectural awards, and it was a massive program which is taking our city beyond books and into high technology and into areas where I think the citizens can really get a lot of benefit. So our central library is where we'll host the code sprint, for those of you who will
26:01
stick with us through that. It's an incredible, incredible place. This picture looks a little evil, I promise you. This building is not evil. This is our National Music Center, another brand new facility we just created. It houses a library collection, it houses recording studios, and one of the very first synthesizers ever used in pop music. I don't think they'll let
26:23
you touch it, though. We will hold the gala in this facility, and it is a beautiful spot that I hope we can all enjoy together. I don't think we can afford to do a seven-hour open bar, though. I hope you booked your plane ticket already.
26:44
And what would a presentation about Calgary be without the Rocky Mountains? This is Peyto Lake. It is an hour and a half from downtown Calgary. It is an incredible, incredible place. I hope that when you come next year, you can all take the chance to get out to Banff. We're prototyping a concept of doing a workshop in Banff. Maybe we can load
27:03
folks on a bus, drive you out there, do a workshop, learn maybe about how Parks is doing some things, and bring you back. That way, if you don't want to rent a car, you still have the chance to get to Banff. If you do want to rent a car, you can head south to Waterton Lakes National Park, another beautiful area with soaring peaks, beautiful lakes,
27:26
an absolutely incredible place. The only thing not to like is the lack of Wi-Fi. We're excited to announce we already have some keynote speakers confirmed. We've been focused on a diverse range of topics, and we're focused on a diverse slate of
27:45
speakers who can represent different viewpoints, different walks of life, and different technology areas. So our six keynotes confirmed so far include Katie Baines from NASA, Paul Morin from the Polar Geospatial Centre, Gretchen Peterson, an author and consultant,
28:01
Bibiana McHugh from TriMet, Dr. Gabriella Coleman from McGill University, and Tom Wright from Observable. So keep an eye out. We'll be announcing more speakers, obviously, as the year goes on, and be doing a call out for papers and presentations in an open way to engage
28:20
the community. So we're excited. Speaking of excitement, I got a short video for you, and then we'll bring it home. I don't know if there's, ah, no? All right. The magic touch?
28:42
All right. Do we have sound? That's okay. Let's do it again. I love a good technology glitch. Let's do a quick straw poll. Has anyone been to Calgary before?
29:03
You, you're Canadian. You're Canadian. Is there anyone here who's not? And as Brad,
30:10
my co-chair mentioned, the weather is very, very nice. It might snow, but it won't be 30. So thank you very much. Please come to Calgary. Thank you very much.
30:32
Thank you to the LLC in Calgary. So I think that did it. It's done. Conference closed.
30:42
Maybe it's time to go to a pub. Maybe. So the pub race starts at Legere Cafe, which is like 200 meters from here immediately. All of you, let's have a safe flight home if you're traveling and meet again next year in Calgary. Goodbye. Now let's go to beer.
