OSGeoLive is a self-contained bootable DVD, USB thumb drive or Virtual Machine based on Lubuntu, that allows you to try a wide variety of open source geospatial software without installing anything. It is composed entirely of free software, allowing it to be freely distributed, duplicated and passed around. It provides pre-configured applications for a range of geospatial use cases, including storage, publishing, viewing, analysis and manipulation of data. It also contains sample datasets and documentation. OSGeoLive is an OSGeo project used in several workshops at FOSS4Gs around the world. The OSGeoLive project has consistently and sustainably been attracting contributions from ~ 50 projects for over a decade. Why has it been successful? What has attracted hundreds of diverse people to contribute to this project? How are technology changes affecting OSGeoLive, and by extension, the greater OSGeo ecosystem? Where is OSGeoLive heading and what are the challenges and opportunities for the future? How is the project steering committee operating? In this presentation we will cover current roadmap, opportunities and challenges, and why people are using OSGeoLive.

 We are going to have Angelo's and Astrid and Nicholas who will speak to us on the state of the OSGO live project. So let me just... Hello. Hello everybody. So a minute I will share my screen. Here we are. And then we can start. Okay. I hope you can see it now and it's great to be here at Phosphor G 2021 in Buenos Aires. And we from the OSGO live team would like to make a project report and tell you what happened in the OSGO live project in the last year. OSGO live is your open source dual spatial tool kit and we are from the OSGO live team and send greetings to the others of our team. So let's have a look. First maybe not every one of you may know OSGO live so we would like to give you an introduction, a short one. On the picture you already can see OSGO live desktop. So it's easy to use. You have a lot of dual spatial applications ready to use on OSGO live and it's the GNU Linux distribution which is including the best free and open source dual spatial software all together ready for you to go. Here you can see the desktop, it's an old map from Buenos Aires so it fits absolutely good to the Phosphor G this year and we provide every year data and desktop from the Phosphor G where the Phosphor G takes place. And we have around 50 open source dual spatial applications on OSGO live. There are pre-configured software projects and they are installed and we also provide sample data sets. We have for all the projects we have consistent overviews and quick start documentations that help you to find out about the software and to give you the first information to start how to work with the project and we provide translations to many languages already and you will see later in the demo what we can offer and in which language you can use already OSGO live. So if you want to use OSGO live you can use it in different ways. You can burn a DVD with OSGO live. You can create a bootable USB drive or you can run it in a virtual machine. We recommend that you will run it in a virtual machine. And then you can start and the goal for OSGO live is that you don't have all the challenges that sometimes the installation brings with it and you can try all this great software already and also have this data that you can use immediately. We also care about quality criteria so we provide established stable and working software or the projects are tested before we release the next release. We take care that there's an active community and we have a page where we provide metrics. On the screenshot here you can see the summaries of the metrics from OpenHUB and every metric is linked to the project page from OpenHUB where you find more information about the community size, about the activity and furthermore. Then we have production and marketing. We have a pipeline so we have a regular cycle, how we publish OSGO live and we have different parts of people active in this pipeline. So we have the developers who provide the applications and they test everything and provide the new versions, then we have the OSGO live team that builds and tests the applications all together, then we have the documentation team and the translators and the reviewers. So for the project teams it's great to have translators and the documentation team writing the documentation and doing the translations. Then we have the conference teams so people who run conferences or workshops, they are happy to use OSGO live in their settings and can provide OSGO live on a USB drive, USB stick or use it in their workshops and then we have the website where you can get all the information about OSGO live. So for decision making this is a good point where you can get a great overview on OSGO projects. And here we want to have a look at the download statistics. So this is from the previous version which was version 13 and you can see in the, in two years we had over 30,000 downloads of OSGO live and this shows how the interest it is on the project. And if we have a look on the map and see in which regions OSGO live was downloaded, it also shows you where all on the world it is used. And you have to keep in mind that one download, it could be an ISO or a VMDK, it does not mean that it is only used from one person because with one ISO you could provide a whole workshop room or you could provide thousands of USB drives. So this number doesn't show everything but it shows that it is really a big interest in OSGO live. And we have version 14 now which was published in May this year and here we have already nearly 10,000 downloads already. Talking about OSGO live 14, we would like to remember Malena. This version has a special name, it's called OSGO live 14 Malena because we would like to dedicate this version to our friend Malena who had passed away short before we released this version and we were very shocked and really miss her already. And now I'm passing to Angelos and he will help us with version 14. Thank you Astrid. So now I'm going to talk a bit about what is new in this version 14. Technically speaking we are inheriting stuff from Ubuntu so we have been re-based our distribution to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. This was a major change because Ubuntu suites from LXDE to LXQT so we had to reconfigure our desktop, figure out how to change the menus so we had a lot of work to do for this new version. The pipeline of packaging is the same which means that we are inheriting packages from Debian GIS which are going upstream to Debian and then those are coming to Ubuntu and to OSGO live. But we are also working on synchronizing the OSGO live PPAs, the repository with new packages from Debian GIS and Ubuntu GIS which means that we are trying to get the latest and most stable packages to the distribution so we were able to upgrade most of the projects in OSGO live like QJS, JDAO, Prod, Prod GIS, Geo Server, Map Server and many other projects. We had new projects that were added. We added PyJet API, Geo Styler, Registry from European Commission. So there are new projects that are joining OSGO live and we are trying to keep it up with the new projects that are joining the OSGO community program so we are trying to include all the new community projects from OSGO to OSGO live but of course we are waiting for other projects to submit their application to be included in OSGO live. Then we have additional Python modules added and we also have our projects that are added so we have a specific interest for data science so we have Python and R and Jupyter notebooks included and those are maintained actively. And we have two versions of the OSGO live. One is the ISO version which is the live version. You can run it directly from the ISO or from a live USB and then we have the VMDK, the virtual machine version which has even more software this year because we reached the ISO limits and that means that all the new projects are landing into the VM version only at this moment. You can see a full change log of what is in version 14 in the link provided here. Next slide please. So what else is new? We had a major update of documentation. We have a new command line tutorial thanks to Anok and Astrid for compiling that. We did major improvements in the OpenStreetMap tutorial and we are cooperating now with the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap team thanks to Anok and Astrid. Brian has contributed many, many great Jupyter notebooks and he is maintaining them so that data science people are happy with it and it can be used in classrooms and all around the world. And we added OpenStreetMap data for Buenos Aires since we are virtually even in Buenos Aires right now. Next slide please. More stuff. We added new languages so now we are supporting the languages that you see here, the English, Dutch, Spanish and many, many other languages. We reached the translation levels to 100% for Hungarian but also for Spanish and we would like to special thank Martha Vergara for doing most of the Spanish translations so the Spanish language is again at 100%. So please if you are interested please join us and add your translations. It's very important for students to have the OSGO live tutorials and all overviews and quick starts in their own language so please join us. Let's go to the next slide please. As I already mentioned we had several challenges for version 14. We reached to the new desktop environment and we had many upstream Ubuntu changes that block our development for a while so we needed an extra time to cope with that. Our packaging efforts were a bit slower than usual due to the COVID pandemic and we still need lots of testing so please if you are interested join us and test the distribution before we release it because after we release it is more difficult to change stuff. Next slide please. And also we are now in the cloud era so OSGO live is perfect for the cloud. Most Debian GIS and Ubuntu GIS packages are used in Docker everywhere and also in virtual machines on the cloud and OSGO live has been reported to work and to work fine in many cloud environments. Recently we discovered that it is actively used in ISAs, Diaz infrastructure and specifically Creo Diaz which works over OpenStack so we are very happy that ISA is doing work using OSGO live currently. Next slide please. Yeah and now I am passing back to Astrid. And if we talk more about OSGO live in action we would like to mention Marco Minghi who gave us feedback on our project. He is a scientific project officer at the European Commission and he can see what he says. Open source geospatial software is a key building block of many data infrastructures managed and operated by the European Commission, powering high level European initiatives such as Inspire and Copernicus and the role of OSGO live to teach and promote the use of open source geospatial software has no equivalent. Big thanks to OSGO and the OSGO live team. So this is both a big honor for us and hope that others also profit from OSGO and enjoy to use it. And I can report from the FOSCIS conference which takes place every year in the German language area that we use it there successfully in our workshops and also at FOSFIGI here this year it was already used into workshops. So let's have a look at our roadmap. So we are preparing for OSGO live 15 which will be released next year and has to be ready for the next FOSFIGI 2022 in Florence and Italy. And we plan to use the Alobuntu version 22.4 and we want to include new OSGO community projects so you heard the shout out already from Angelo's and we plan to include a glossary from the lexicon committee and working together with them at the moment. We want to write more documentations because there are projects that are hidden. They are installed already on OSGO live but have no documentation so they can get more visibility. For example it's Pidel which is there but there's no documentation yet. Then we want to improve the usability for hot users. You heard about maybe about the OSGO hot memorandum of understanding that was signed and one goal is to bring hot and OSGO live closer together. We want to improve the translations and if you would like to support us please apply with your project and you are really welcome to get involved. We are a nice team and you can learn a lot and share ideas. And now we want to have a look at the projects and I pass to Nikola who will give you an introduction. Thank you Espen. So we divide the whole project in 10 major categories. The first one we want to show you is the desktop.js category. It's the largest desktop application, the most famous like QJS or GlassJS but we are also less common or less known projects like JBCIG or UDIC or OpenJumpJS or even SagaJS but also embed within OSGO live so you can find new applications, access to new algorithms within the application and access documentation, overview and tutorial as well. Next slide please. We also have browser facing JS tools like OpenJS and Leaflet which are very common now but you also have Cesium and Joe Stiber which are very new and server application and SDI application like MyBender, GeoEc, GeoMove and GeoNet to help you build a small SDI within the application. So this documentation is also within the disk maybe Angelos would like to show you where you can find this documentation and this presentation in the documentation when I'm still speaking so if you click on the help or open the browser you get to the web page and in the contents page you can find the 10 great categories you find so we saw the browser facing JS but we also ship web services, the Mots command, the map server or GeoServer but we have a large panel of projects that can provide web services so you can try some with your application and try your processing chain. On the next we also ship data store like Poges you can do some routing within it because we ended a Fijian routing project. You can also share Raster with Rastaman server and use a special databases. We also provide some tools for navigation and mapping like Marble, the ID editor and GeoSM software from the GeoSM community and other tools. We also have some special tools which are specific to a domain like our Fiori toolbox which is an image processing tool but we also ship as we say data sense tools like Jupyter and R with the GeoSpecial libraries and we also have some domain specific JS like Xigrid I'm not sure the pronunciation but for the web app, forecast maps and we also ship data that you can use within the tutorials so you have some data from the tutorial for North Carolina and we also have all the GeoSpecial libraries that are used by the project like Jdoll, JOS, Proj or Jts. You can find more information about the standards but command to all those tools and allows them to communicate. Thank you Angelos I think. We can access all the tools within the GeoSpecial menu and you can see, you can find all the tools organized in some area. So yeah I would like to add a few things here like you can see here that we have all the OSGO projects marked with a color icon and then we have the community projects that are joining now with the black and white and then you can see that the projects that are only available in the virtual machine version are marked here as well. For every project here you can find an overview and translations are available. This is why we are asking for more translations so that we can have the text in many languages and also you can find for every project a quick start so you can actually learn by doing a simple tutorial, a simple exercise within the OSGO Live DVD. The data that we are using for the quick starts are already bundled in the VM so it's really easy for somebody to learn how to use those projects even with a small tutorial. You can find some other quick starts in the landing page which is how to install it, how to create a bootable USB flash drive, how to run it in another environment and also there's a presentation available here which is the presentation we are now giving where you can do it directly from the disk. I think that's about it. If you need to find out the passwords or to see where the data are, there's a link on the desktop. We have the workshops available that are using the OSGO Live so the desktop already that used OSGO Live in this Foss4G are there listed and well, that's about it. We don't have enough time to go through a quick start or something similar but we can have some questions and answers now. Maybe I can mention some more if we have time. No, we don't. Sure, go ahead. Okay, so we can credit all the people that are involved. We have all these developers that maintain the projects and the documentation team translators. We have the PSC which you can see here. We have sponsors that support us with hardware or infrastructure or other things and maybe it could be interesting for you to get involved and there you could contact us on the mailing list. You can meet us on RSC and there are several ways to get involved. You could work on the project, on testing the website documentation and you're really welcome to join. Translation is done on TransEffects and we will have the Foss4G Community Sprint this Saturday. We will be there with the OSU Live Team so you're really welcome to join us and get to know the OSU Live project and the team. That's it from our side. Great, thanks guys. Very interesting presentation and very valuable tool for the community to basically download all these and use these tools right out of the box for an SDI in a box if you will. I'm looking at the question. Here we're seeing is there a date for the launch of QGIS version 4? Maybe related to that, how do you guys deal with versions of the various projects and how do you balance this all? Yeah, that's the tricky part. We are following some, let's say, Debian rules which means that whenever something is stable and it's uploaded into Debian unstable, we are testing it and we see if it's ready to be shipped. Sometimes we are trying a more new version if available but we are trying to remain on the stable side of things. This is why, for example, QGIS that is mentioned is not on the latest version on the disk, it's one or two versions behind. For QGIS 4, I would not expect this to land on the next OSU Live even if it is released from the QGIS team. It might take another version to show up. But maybe we can mention one thing. We publish OSU Live with all these projects but in the end you are free to install more programs or install newer versions. So it's not fixed, it's flexible. Excellent. Nice to see the extensibility. Another comment I think, I hope the maplibre.js and other vector tile related OSS projects will be included in the next release. You guys have any comments around vector tile projects? We need to have more volunteers to show up and maintain those projects or make the application for those projects to enter. So what we need is for a maintainer to step up and say, okay, I will, for example, apply to get a new project in OSU Live. Then one has to provide the installation script, the quick start and the quick start and the overview page. So if you have all those three, if it's open source, we will try to include it in the next version. So we do have a vector tile server included actually in version 13. But we definitely need more. So if people are interested, they can help us because it's so much software, we cannot maintain it on our own all the time. And maybe you don't have to be a developer to provide a project to OSU Live. You could be a user of the software and do the work, do the documentation, do the testing and do your part to bring a project on OSU Live. Great. Another question, how does translation work? Is it possible to update the website before a release? I will take, I will be speaking about translation. So the translation is mostly done on Transifx platform like a lot of OSU projects. I send the link within the chat. Maybe you should have seen it before. So you are free to join us and we have around 20 languages available. We just ship languages but make sure enough to be shipped. Mostly it's all overview translated and we ship it in. So we have enough material in one language to include it. The second question, is it possible to update the website? The website reflects the documentation within the ISOs, we don't like to change it too much. We update it maybe once or twice a year. So it's kind of stable to match the ISO and we only fix the typos in the second. So we ship a new version with maybe a new version of QJS. It won't be working with a later version. So it has to be stable. But we have two versions also. I expected on the website. We also have a GitHub page version which is more recently updated. I hope it responds to the question. Great. And just to recap, getting involved is as easy as signing up and adding your project or volunteering to do some documentation or testing. So it sounds like there's a very low barrier in terms of getting involved in this open community and an inclusive project. Awesome. Yeah, that's what we do. Thanks. That's awesome. Great. Thanks guys. Great presentation. Thank you very much. See you soon to HL. Bye bye. Enjoy the conference. Thank you. Sorry.
 We are going to have Angelo's and Astrid and Nicholas who will speak to us on the state  of the OSGO live project.  So let me just...  Hello.  Hello everybody.  So a minute I will share my screen.  Here we are.  And then we can start.  Okay.  I hope you can see it now and it's great to be here at Phosphor G 2021 in Buenos Aires.  And we from the OSGO live team would like to make a project report and tell you what  happened in the OSGO live project in the last year.  OSGO live is your open source dual spatial tool kit and we are from the OSGO live team  and send greetings to the others of our team.  So let's have a look.

So if you want to use OSGO live you can use it in different ways.  You can burn a DVD with OSGO live.  You can create a bootable USB drive or you can run it in a virtual machine.  We recommend that you will run it in a virtual machine.  And then you can start and the goal for OSGO live is that you don't have all the challenges  that sometimes the installation brings with it and you can try all this great software  already and also have this data that you can use immediately.  We also care about quality criteria so we provide established stable and working software  or the projects are tested before we release the next release.

You can find more information about the standards but command to all those tools and allows  them to communicate.  Thank you Angelos I think.  We can access all the tools within the GeoSpecial menu and you can see, you can find all the  tools organized in some area.  So yeah I would like to add a few things here like you can see here that we have all the  OSGO projects marked with a color icon and then we have the community projects that are  joining now with the black and white and then you can see that the projects that are only  available in the virtual machine version are marked here as well.  For every project here you can find an overview and translations are available.  This is why we are asking for more translations so that we can have the text in many languages  and also you can find for every project a quick start so you can actually learn by doing  a simple tutorial, a simple exercise within the OSGO Live DVD.  The data that we are using for the quick starts are already bundled in the VM so it's really  easy for somebody to learn how to use those projects even with a small tutorial.  You can find some other quick starts in the landing page which is how to install it, how  to create a bootable USB flash drive, how to run it in another environment and also  there's a presentation available here which is the presentation we are now giving where  you can do it directly from the disk.  I think that's about it.  If you need to find out the passwords or to see where the data are, there's a link on  the desktop.  We have the workshops available that are using the OSGO Live so the desktop already that  used OSGO Live in this Foss4G are there listed and well, that's about it.  We don't have enough time to go through a quick start or something similar but we can  have some questions and answers now.  Maybe I can mention some more if we have time.  No, we don't.  Sure, go ahead.  Okay, so we can credit all the people that are involved.  We have all these developers that maintain the projects and the documentation team translators.  We have the PSC which you can see here.  We have sponsors that support us with hardware or infrastructure or other things and maybe  it could be interesting for you to get involved and there you could contact us on the mailing  list.  You can meet us on RSC and there are several ways to get involved.  You could work on the project, on testing the website documentation and you're really  welcome to join.  Translation is done on TransEffects and we will have the Foss4G Community Sprint this  Saturday.  We will be there with the OSU Live Team so you're really welcome to join us and get to  know the OSU Live project and the team.  That's it from our side.  Great, thanks guys.  Very interesting presentation and very valuable tool for the community to basically download  all these and use these tools right out of the box for an SDI in a box if you will.  I'm looking at the question.  Here we're seeing is there a date for the launch of QGIS version 4?  Maybe related to that, how do you guys deal with versions of the various projects and  how do you balance this all?  Yeah, that's the tricky part.  We are following some, let's say, Debian rules which means that whenever something is stable  and it's uploaded into Debian unstable, we are testing it and we see if it's ready to  be shipped.  Sometimes we are trying a more new version if available but we are trying to remain on  the stable side of things.  This is why, for example, QGIS that is mentioned is not on the latest version on the disk,  it's one or two versions behind.  For QGIS 4, I would not expect this to land on the next OSU Live even if it is released  from the QGIS team.  It might take another version to show up.  But maybe we can mention one thing.  We publish OSU Live with all these projects but in the end you are free to install more  programs or install newer versions.  So it's not fixed, it's flexible.  Excellent.  Nice to see the extensibility.  Another comment I think, I hope the maplibre.js and other vector tile related OSS projects  will be included in the next release.  You guys have any comments around vector tile projects?  We need to have more volunteers to show up and maintain those projects or make the application  for those projects to enter.  So what we need is for a maintainer to step up and say, okay, I will, for example, apply  to get a new project in OSU Live.  Then one has to provide the installation script, the quick start and the quick start and the  overview page.  So if you have all those three, if it's open source, we will try to include it in the next  version.  So we do have a vector tile server included actually in version 13.  But we definitely need more.  So if people are interested, they can help us because it's so much software, we cannot  maintain it on our own all the time.  And maybe you don't have to be a developer to provide a project to OSU Live.  You could be a user of the software and do the work, do the documentation, do the testing  and do your part to bring a project on OSU Live.  Great.  Another question, how does translation work?  Is it possible to update the website before a release?  I will take, I will be speaking about translation.  So the translation is mostly done on Transifx platform like a lot of OSU projects.  I send the link within the chat.  Maybe you should have seen it before.  So you are free to join us and we have around 20 languages available.  We just ship languages but make sure enough to be shipped.  Mostly it's all overview translated and we ship it in.  So we have enough material in one language to include it.  The second question, is it possible to update the website?  The website reflects the documentation within the ISOs, we don't like to change it too much.  We update it maybe once or twice a year.  So it's kind of stable to match the ISO and we only fix the typos in the second.  So we ship a new version with maybe a new version of QJS.  It won't be working with a later version.  So it has to be stable.  But we have two versions also.  I expected on the website.  We also have a GitHub page version which is more recently updated.  I hope it responds to the question.  Great.  And just to recap, getting involved is as easy as signing up and adding your project  or volunteering to do some documentation or testing.  So it sounds like there's a very low barrier in terms of getting involved in this open  community and an inclusive project.  Awesome.  Yeah, that's what we do.  Thanks.  That's awesome.  Great.  Thanks guys.  Great presentation.  Thank you very much.  See you soon to HL.  Bye bye.  Enjoy the conference.  Thank you.  Sorry.

We are going to have Angelo's and Astrid and Nicholas who will speak to us on the state of the OSGO live project. So let me just... Hello. Hello everybody. So a minute I will share my screen. Here we are. And then we can start. Okay. I hope you can see it now and it's great to be here at Phosphor G 2021 in Buenos Aires. And we from the OSGO live team would like to make a project report and tell you what happened in the OSGO live project in the last year. OSGO live is your open source dual spatial tool kit and we are from the OSGO live team and send greetings to the others of our team. So let's have a look. First maybe not every one of you may know OSGO live so we would like to give you an introduction, a short one. On the picture you already can see OSGO live desktop. So it's easy to use. You have a lot of dual spatial applications ready to use on OSGO live and it's the GNU Linux distribution which is including the best free and open source dual spatial software all together ready for you to go. Here you can see the desktop, it's an old map from Buenos Aires so it fits absolutely good to the Phosphor G this year and we provide every year data and desktop from the Phosphor G where the Phosphor G takes place. And we have around 50 open source dual spatial applications on OSGO live. There are pre-configured software projects and they are installed and we also provide sample data sets. We have for all the projects we have consistent overviews and quick start documentations that help you to find out about the software and to give you the first information to start how to work with the project and we provide translations to many languages already and you will see later in the demo what we can offer and in which language you can use already OSGO live. So if you want to use OSGO live you can use it in different ways. You can burn a DVD with OSGO live. You can create a bootable USB drive or you can run it in a virtual machine. We recommend that you will run it in a virtual machine. And then you can start and the goal for OSGO live is that you don't have all the challenges that sometimes the installation brings with it and you can try all this great software already and also have this data that you can use immediately. We also care about quality criteria so we provide established stable and working software or the projects are tested before we release the next release. We take care that there's an active community and we have a page where we provide metrics. On the screenshot here you can see the summaries of the metrics from OpenHUB and every metric is linked to the project page from OpenHUB where you find more information about the community size, about the activity and furthermore. Then we have production and marketing. We have a pipeline so we have a regular cycle, how we publish OSGO live and we have different parts of people active in this pipeline. So we have the developers who provide the applications and they test everything and provide the new versions, then we have the OSGO live team that builds and tests the applications all together, then we have the documentation team and the translators and the reviewers. So for the project teams it's great to have translators and the documentation team writing the documentation and doing the translations. Then we have the conference teams so people who run conferences or workshops, they are happy to use OSGO live in their settings and can provide OSGO live on a USB drive, USB stick or use it in their workshops and then we have the website where you can get all the information about OSGO live. So for decision making this is a good point where you can get a great overview on OSGO projects. And here we want to have a look at the download statistics. So this is from the previous version which was version 13 and you can see in the, in two years we had over 30,000 downloads of OSGO live and this shows how the interest it is on the project. And if we have a look on the map and see in which regions OSGO live was downloaded, it also shows you where all on the world it is used. And you have to keep in mind that one download, it could be an ISO or a VMDK, it does not mean that it is only used from one person because with one ISO you could provide a whole workshop room or you could provide thousands of USB drives. So this number doesn't show everything but it shows that it is really a big interest in OSGO live. And we have version 14 now which was published in May this year and here we have already nearly 10,000 downloads already. Talking about OSGO live 14, we would like to remember Malena. This version has a special name, it's called OSGO live 14 Malena because we would like to dedicate this version to our friend Malena who had passed away short before we released this version and we were very shocked and really miss her already. And now I'm passing to Angelos and he will help us with version 14. Thank you Astrid. So now I'm going to talk a bit about what is new in this version 14. Technically speaking we are inheriting stuff from Ubuntu so we have been re-based our distribution to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. This was a major change because Ubuntu suites from LXDE to LXQT so we had to reconfigure our desktop, figure out how to change the menus so we had a lot of work to do for this new version. The pipeline of packaging is the same which means that we are inheriting packages from Debian GIS which are going upstream to Debian and then those are coming to Ubuntu and to OSGO live. But we are also working on synchronizing the OSGO live PPAs, the repository with new packages from Debian GIS and Ubuntu GIS which means that we are trying to get the latest and most stable packages to the distribution so we were able to upgrade most of the projects in OSGO live like QJS, JDAO, Prod, Prod GIS, Geo Server, Map Server and many other projects. We had new projects that were added. We added PyJet API, Geo Styler, Registry from European Commission. So there are new projects that are joining OSGO live and we are trying to keep it up with the new projects that are joining the OSGO community program so we are trying to include all the new community projects from OSGO to OSGO live but of course we are waiting for other projects to submit their application to be included in OSGO live. Then we have additional Python modules added and we also have our projects that are added so we have a specific interest for data science so we have Python and R and Jupyter notebooks included and those are maintained actively. And we have two versions of the OSGO live. One is the ISO version which is the live version. You can run it directly from the ISO or from a live USB and then we have the VMDK, the virtual machine version which has even more software this year because we reached the ISO limits and that means that all the new projects are landing into the VM version only at this moment. You can see a full change log of what is in version 14 in the link provided here. Next slide please. So what else is new? We had a major update of documentation. We have a new command line tutorial thanks to Anok and Astrid for compiling that. We did major improvements in the OpenStreetMap tutorial and we are cooperating now with the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap team thanks to Anok and Astrid. Brian has contributed many, many great Jupyter notebooks and he is maintaining them so that data science people are happy with it and it can be used in classrooms and all around the world. And we added OpenStreetMap data for Buenos Aires since we are virtually even in Buenos Aires right now. Next slide please. More stuff. We added new languages so now we are supporting the languages that you see here, the English, Dutch, Spanish and many, many other languages. We reached the translation levels to 100% for Hungarian but also for Spanish and we would like to special thank Martha Vergara for doing most of the Spanish translations so the Spanish language is again at 100%. So please if you are interested please join us and add your translations. It's very important for students to have the OSGO live tutorials and all overviews and quick starts in their own language so please join us. Let's go to the next slide please. As I already mentioned we had several challenges for version 14. We reached to the new desktop environment and we had many upstream Ubuntu changes that block our development for a while so we needed an extra time to cope with that. Our packaging efforts were a bit slower than usual due to the COVID pandemic and we still need lots of testing so please if you are interested join us and test the distribution before we release it because after we release it is more difficult to change stuff. Next slide please. And also we are now in the cloud era so OSGO live is perfect for the cloud. Most Debian GIS and Ubuntu GIS packages are used in Docker everywhere and also in virtual machines on the cloud and OSGO live has been reported to work and to work fine in many cloud environments. Recently we discovered that it is actively used in ISAs, Diaz infrastructure and specifically Creo Diaz which works over OpenStack so we are very happy that ISA is doing work using OSGO live currently. Next slide please. Yeah and now I am passing back to Astrid. And if we talk more about OSGO live in action we would like to mention Marco Minghi who gave us feedback on our project. He is a scientific project officer at the European Commission and he can see what he says. Open source geospatial software is a key building block of many data infrastructures managed and operated by the European Commission, powering high level European initiatives such as Inspire and Copernicus and the role of OSGO live to teach and promote the use of open source geospatial software has no equivalent. Big thanks to OSGO and the OSGO live team. So this is both a big honor for us and hope that others also profit from OSGO and enjoy to use it. And I can report from the FOSCIS conference which takes place every year in the German language area that we use it there successfully in our workshops and also at FOSFIGI here this year it was already used into workshops. So let's have a look at our roadmap. So we are preparing for OSGO live 15 which will be released next year and has to be ready for the next FOSFIGI 2022 in Florence and Italy. And we plan to use the Alobuntu version 22.4 and we want to include new OSGO community projects so you heard the shout out already from Angelo's and we plan to include a glossary from the lexicon committee and working together with them at the moment. We want to write more documentations because there are projects that are hidden. They are installed already on OSGO live but have no documentation so they can get more visibility. For example it's Pidel which is there but there's no documentation yet. Then we want to improve the usability for hot users. You heard about maybe about the OSGO hot memorandum of understanding that was signed and one goal is to bring hot and OSGO live closer together. We want to improve the translations and if you would like to support us please apply with your project and you are really welcome to get involved. We are a nice team and you can learn a lot and share ideas. And now we want to have a look at the projects and I pass to Nikola who will give you an introduction. Thank you Espen. So we divide the whole project in 10 major categories. The first one we want to show you is the desktop.js category. It's the largest desktop application, the most famous like QJS or GlassJS but we are also less common or less known projects like JBCIG or UDIC or OpenJumpJS or even SagaJS but also embed within OSGO live so you can find new applications, access to new algorithms within the application and access documentation, overview and tutorial as well. Next slide please. We also have browser facing JS tools like OpenJS and Leaflet which are very common now but you also have Cesium and Joe Stiber which are very new and server application and SDI application like MyBender, GeoEc, GeoMove and GeoNet to help you build a small SDI within the application. So this documentation is also within the disk maybe Angelos would like to show you where you can find this documentation and this presentation in the documentation when I'm still speaking so if you click on the help or open the browser you get to the web page and in the contents page you can find the 10 great categories you find so we saw the browser facing JS but we also ship web services, the Mots command, the map server or GeoServer but we have a large panel of projects that can provide web services so you can try some with your application and try your processing chain. On the next we also ship data store like Poges you can do some routing within it because we ended a Fijian routing project. You can also share Raster with Rastaman server and use a special databases. We also provide some tools for navigation and mapping like Marble, the ID editor and GeoSM software from the GeoSM community and other tools. We also have some special tools which are specific to a domain like our Fiori toolbox which is an image processing tool but we also ship as we say data sense tools like Jupyter and R with the GeoSpecial libraries and we also have some domain specific JS like Xigrid I'm not sure the pronunciation but for the web app, forecast maps and we also ship data that you can use within the tutorials so you have some data from the tutorial for North Carolina and we also have all the GeoSpecial libraries that are used by the project like Jdoll, JOS, Proj or Jts. You can find more information about the standards but command to all those tools and allows them to communicate. Thank you Angelos I think. We can access all the tools within the GeoSpecial menu and you can see, you can find all the tools organized in some area. So yeah I would like to add a few things here like you can see here that we have all the OSGO projects marked with a color icon and then we have the community projects that are joining now with the black and white and then you can see that the projects that are only available in the virtual machine version are marked here as well. For every project here you can find an overview and translations are available. This is why we are asking for more translations so that we can have the text in many languages and also you can find for every project a quick start so you can actually learn by doing a simple tutorial, a simple exercise within the OSGO Live DVD. The data that we are using for the quick starts are already bundled in the VM so it's really easy for somebody to learn how to use those projects even with a small tutorial. You can find some other quick starts in the landing page which is how to install it, how to create a bootable USB flash drive, how to run it in another environment and also there's a presentation available here which is the presentation we are now giving where you can do it directly from the disk. I think that's about it. If you need to find out the passwords or to see where the data are, there's a link on the desktop. We have the workshops available that are using the OSGO Live so the desktop already that used OSGO Live in this Foss4G are there listed and well, that's about it. We don't have enough time to go through a quick start or something similar but we can have some questions and answers now. Maybe I can mention some more if we have time. No, we don't. Sure, go ahead. Okay, so we can credit all the people that are involved. We have all these developers that maintain the projects and the documentation team translators. We have the PSC which you can see here. We have sponsors that support us with hardware or infrastructure or other things and maybe it could be interesting for you to get involved and there you could contact us on the mailing list. You can meet us on RSC and there are several ways to get involved. You could work on the project, on testing the website documentation and you're really welcome to join. Translation is done on TransEffects and we will have the Foss4G Community Sprint this Saturday. We will be there with the OSU Live Team so you're really welcome to join us and get to know the OSU Live project and the team. That's it from our side. Great, thanks guys. Very interesting presentation and very valuable tool for the community to basically download all these and use these tools right out of the box for an SDI in a box if you will. I'm looking at the question. Here we're seeing is there a date for the launch of QGIS version 4? Maybe related to that, how do you guys deal with versions of the various projects and how do you balance this all? Yeah, that's the tricky part.

For QGIS 4, I would not expect this to land on the next OSU Live even if it is released from the QGIS team. It might take another version to show up. But maybe we can mention one thing. We publish OSU Live with all these projects but in the end you are free to install more programs or install newer versions. So it's not fixed, it's flexible. Excellent. Nice to see the extensibility. Another comment I think, I hope the maplibre.js and other vector tile related OSS projects will be included in the next release. You guys have any comments around vector tile projects?

We are going to have Angelo's and Astrid and Nicholas who will speak to us on the state of the which is including the best free and open source open source dual spatial applications on OSGO live. There are pre-configured software projects bootable USB drive or you can run it in a virtual with it and you can try all this great software we had over 30,000 downloads of OSGO live and added so we have a specific interest for data maintaining them so that data science people are and all around the world. And we added already mentioned we had several challenges for changes that block our development for a while so we needed an extra time to cope with that. Our packages are used in Docker everywhere and also scientific project officer at the European Commission and he can see what he says. Open source geospatial software is a key building operated by the European Commission, powering and promote the use of open source geospatial which will be released next year and has to be this documentation and this presentation in the OSGO Live DVD. The data that we are using for the presentation available here which is the desktop. We have the workshops available that are TransEffects and we will have the Foss4G released from the QGIS team. It might take
