So, I'm going to give you some inputs about the rise of the concept of GeoCommons in France. It's like past years, the French National Geographical Institute, it started communicating its vision towards the development of GeoCommons, like the numerical command that applied
00:21
to geographical data, workflow, tools, build, and services. We have a focus on co-building ecosystem. For us, that sounded like a gear change. In the ways institute, I print geo data and geo software production. This is quite new for us in France, because from an institution that was used to working
00:46
quietly from its evaluator, sometimes dropping data, sometimes dropping tools or services, but with our bottom-up workflow for the feedback users. It was new, and we were really attentive.
01:05
One year later, it's time for an assessment, it was the latest buzzword in France to make eGen rising up on Lake Nin, or is it a large movement towards more openness in
01:22
the geospatial realm in France? That is the question. First time, the change of mind or mindset, it impacted the eGen itself, concretely, there
01:41
was a public consultation, really open, widely open, to gather ideas, feelings, and share vision from the ecosystem, individual actors, associations, a civilian organization, and also a public and private organization, obviously.
02:01
This is not like a concrete thing, it's like a dedicated page on the official website. It's not so insignificant, because it's like an official recognition of open concept, and it gives a great visibility to this concept, and it drives some other concepts.
02:21
We love to share it at FOSS4G, like open data, open code, et cetera. Another initiative inside, within the eGen, was entrepreneurship, with three selected topics, and helping someone to develop its idea outside the institute, but with its
02:48
help. Yes, you're right, the image is not showing, I don't know why, and the new national platform announced by the eGen is only based on FOSS, and even if eGen has already a long tradition
03:04
using and publishing some open source tools, it's a great opportunity to move further, and to contribute concretely to some tools, like PGA Fit Yourself, RAC4 tooling, or some open data, really interesting, like the Lidar-IHD, at the front scale.
03:22
Outside, there is like a wide, this is concretely, there is a wide open forum, like Geocommun, and this is really new, also in France, to see some geometrics, like to think together about what is it, a command, what is it, geographical data, really open, et cetera,
03:44
and obviously there is also a hot community, open suit map community, which is waiting for the eGen, okay, we are ready, what are we doing together, and sometimes it's a kind of problem, because people are making, we are making an amalgam between open suit
04:03
map and geocommun, it's like a challenge for me, we are, if we can go further and imagine other things than open suit map, even if obviously it's more advanced. Conclusion, it's a great public message, which is still developing, and finally aligned
04:24
with public money, public institute, public code, public data, et cetera, and it's an important commitment of a national institute to a false ecosystem. Yeah, wow, it's a rush.
04:40
Thank you very much.
