FOSS4G 2010 is the leading annual conference for free and open source geospatial software. It will include workshops and presentations related to GDAL/OGR, and some of the GDAL/OGR development community will be attending. It is the event for those interested in GDAL/OGR, other FOSS geospatial technologies and the community around them. |
A gdal-announce mailing list subscription is a low volume way of keeping track of major developments with the GDAL/OGR project.
The gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org mailing list can be used for discussion of development and user issues related to GDAL and related technologies. Subscriptions can be done, and archives reviewed on the web. The mailing list is also available in read-only format by NNTP at news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.gdal.devel and by HTTP at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.gdal.devel.
Some GDAL/OGR users and developers can also often be found in the gdal IRC channel on irc.freenode.net.
GDAL bugs can be reported, and can be listed using Trac.
The following bindings of GDAL in other languages are available:
