Hello,

My name is Antoine Lavenant (alavenant is my OSGEO ID), and I am writing to request the Service Provider Author role.

I work for IGN (The French National Map Agency). We currently develop tools using OSGEO projects (gdal, pdal, proj, geostyler, grass, …) to which we sometimes contribute. A large part of our projects are Open-Source and could have interest for the community.

I would like to be able to provide information about our work and, if possible, make it available and more visible to the OSGeo community.

Thank you very much,
Antoine

Thanks Antoine and welcome to OSGeo.

I have granted your profile the service provider author role (although your page is pretty empty: lavenant, auteur op OSGeo ) :laughing:

Aside: As a national mapping agency IGN may also be in position to talk to the OSGeo board and set up an MOU to be listed as partner - see here: Partners Archive - OSGeo
Some other national agencies have taking this route and you can see them listed there.

Note: There was also a recent document outlining restructuring OSGeo relationships so organizations could become members and more directly participate.
