Na última semana, tivemos a honra de participar da conferência FOSS4G 2024 Belém (Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial), organizada pela OSGeo (Open Source Geospatial Foundation). O evento, reconhecido por promover o uso de software geoespacial livre e de código aberto, foi uma oportunidade incrível para compartilhar conhecimentos, experiências e explorar tecnologias inovadoras no setor. Nós, da Zetta, não apenas marcamos presença, mas também contribuímos ativamente para esse ambiente enriquecedor. Apresentamos nosso artigo: "Democratizing AI: Making Geotechnology Accessible to All" (Democratizando a IA: tornando a geotecnologia acessível a todos). Foi uma experiência transformadora, marcada por uma semana de aprendizados intensos, trocas valiosas, networking enriquecedor, rever velhos amigos e a descoberta de soluções inovadoras. Gostaríamos de expressar nossa gratidão à Agência Zetta por tornar tudo isso possível. Obrigado por acreditar na nossa proposta e proporcionar essa oportunidade de crescimento e visibilidade. Também deixamos aqui nosso reconhecimento à organização do FOSS4G, que nos entregou uma conferência excepcional, rica em diversidade e repleta de foco no elemento central que conecta tudo ao nosso redor: a informação geoespacial. Estamos ansiosos pelas próximas edições e por continuar contribuindo para um mundo mais acessível e inovador.

pgRouting graduates OSGeo Incubation! OSGeo welcomes pgRouting to its growing ecosystem of projects. OSGeo is pleased to announce that pgRouting has graduated from incubation and is now a full-fledged OSGeo project. pgRouting is an open-source extension in the PostGIS / PostgreSQL geospatial database, providing geospatial routing functionality. Graduating incubation includes fulfilling requirements for open community operation, a responsible project governance model, code provenance, and general good project operation. Graduation is the OSGeo seal of approval for a project and gives potential users and the community at large an added confidence in the viability and safety of the project. The pgRouitng Steering Committee collectively recognizes this as a big progressive step for the project. pgRouting has been an active contributor and participant to various open source initiatives inside and outside OSGeo such as FOSS4G, OSGeo Code Sprints, OGC Code Sprints, Joint OSGeo-OGC-ASF (Apache Software Foundation) Code Sprints, and Google Summer of Code. The pgRouitng PSC says, “We are excited about the future of the project within the OSGeo’s project ecosystem. We have been working to have a community of developers for the project sustainability. It is our honor to be an OSGeo project”. The pgRouting PSC would like to thank our mentor, Angelos Tzotsos, and the OSGeo Incubation Committee for their assistance during this Incubator process. Congratulations to the pgRouting community!
