software foundation click for details maría arias de reyna software engineer geocat click for details joe cheng chief technology officer rstudio click for details x richard stallman free software freedom privacy sovereignty the free software movement campaigns for computer users freedom to cooperate and control their own computing the free software movement developed the gnu operating system typically used together with the kernel linux specifically to make these freedoms possible since proprietary software often sends reports on its users activity avoiding proprietary software is an essential part of recovering practical privacy for state agencies avoiding proprietary software is crucial for recovering the country s computational sovereignty dr richard stallman launched the free software movement in 1983 and started the development of the gnu operating system see www gnu org in 1984 gnu is free software everyone has the freedom to copy it and redistribute it with or without changes the gnu linux system basically the gnu operating system with linux added is used on tens of millions of computers today stallman has received the acm grace hopper award and the acm software and systems award a macarthur foundation fellowship the electronic frontier foundation s pioneer award and the the takeda award for social economic betterment as well as several doctorates honoris causa and has been inducted into the internet hall of fame x maría arias de reyna spatial data infrastructures for everyone transfer protocol standards and data format standards are being put to work by many governments daily because these standards make data sharing easy at the same time many data producers and users outside the government are using wild open data formats that do not follow any strict rules these formats sometimes become the de facto standard and evolve in parallel across the globe making each one a new flavor of the original how do we deal with this is there a way to have a spatial data infrastructure sdi that can reach all use cases and not fail in the attempt maría arias de reyna a software engineer at geocat is one of the core developers of geonetwork a free and open source catalog to manage spatially referenced resources under the osgeo umbrella maría has been working with geospatial software for almost a decade from fleet management to routing platforms and now metadata she is a free as in freedom and open software evangelist and a very active member within several developer communities x holly st clair integrating data in digital services for state government ensuring that constituents have access to their data is essential to effective government the line between gis professionals and data scientists is starting to get blurry how do we utilize the best of both realms to make every interaction with massachusetts government simpler faster more meaningful and wicked awesome holly st clair is the chief digital officer of the commonwealth of massachusetts and leads its digital services office where she currently manages the reimagining and overhaul of the state s website the digital services office s mission is to leverage the best technology and information to ensure every interaction with our government is faster easier more meaningful and wicked awesome ms st clair has a proven history of using data and technology in innovate ways that help people and their government interact to achieve better outcomes she initially joined the commonwealth to create massachusetts s first data office prior to joining the commonwealth ms st clair served as the director of data services at the boston region metropolitan area planning council overseeing the agency s activities in the fields of data management data analysis research and public access to data ms st clair pioneered the use of advanced decision support tools in metropolitan boston managing a variety of projects that use scenarios modeling 3 d environments community indicators and innovative meeting formats to engage stakeholders in dialogue about policy choices x paul ramsey why we code the economics of open source seem as dire as ever and yet the communities continue to churn out new software of all kinds in all categories there seems to be a disconnect can we square the self interest of users with the self interest of developers to keep the ecosystem alive in the long term paul ramsey is a solutions engineer at carto he has been working with geospatial software for over 15 years consulting to government and industry building a geospatial software company and programming on open source software he co founded the postgis spatial database project in 2001 and is currently an active developer and member of the project steering committee in 2008 paul received the sol katz award for achievement in open source geospatial software paul speaks and teaches regularly at conferences around the world x joe cheng coding as a first resort modern geospatial software is generally a point and click affair python and other languages can be used to extend programs or automate batch processes but by and large spatial analysis tasks are performed using desktop gui tools in this talk i ll espouse a different workflow where the tasks of importing analyzing visualizing and reporting with geospatial data all begin and end with writing code in this worldview the primary artifact of any data analysis task is not the resulting output but the source code along the way i ll also demonstrate some of the geospatial capabilities of the r programming language with a particular emphasis on interactive visualization and reporting joe cheng is the cto of rstudio which he joined as the company s first employee in 2009 rstudio s mission is to build world class tools and packages for r a programming language with a strong tilt towards statistics data analysis and visualization joe is the author of several r packages including the shiny web
