OSGeo's regional European conference for open-source geospatial software (successor to FOSS4G-CEE 2012-2013). Not held in 2019 (the global FOSS4G was in Bucharest). 2020 Valmiera, Latvia was cancelled because of COVID-19 (announced as postponed to 2021 but never held). Not held 2021-2023 (the global FOSS4G was in Europe in 2022 and 2023). Resumed with Tartu 2024, Mostar 2025 and Timișoara 2026. No 2027 edition because the global FOSS4G 2027 is in Bristol; a call for venue for 2028+ is pending. YouTube is OSGeo's FOSS4G channel.
