Paul Ramsey, senior    strategist at the open source company Boundless, is one of the    people trying to change that. Ramsey has been working with    geospatial software for over ten years, as programmer and    consultant. He founded the PostGIS spatial database project in    2001, and is currently an active developer and member of the    project steering committee. Ramsey serves as an evangelist for    OpenGeo Suite, works with the Boundless business development    team to share about their collection of offerigns, and speaks    and teaches regularly at conferences around the world. In this    interview, Ramsey shares with us how Boundless is trying to    bring the open source revolution to GIS software.  <\/p>\n<p>        Complete Story  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read more:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.linuxtoday.com\/upload\/mapping-the-world-with-open-source-software-141126085015.html\/RK=0\/RS=0.8OW_NAWt0ZoIxdgd7o4EVvljw-\" title=\"Mapping the world with open source software\">Mapping the world with open source software<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Nov 27, 2014, 10:00 (0 Talkback[s]) (Other stories by Jason Baker) In the world of geospatial technology, closed source solutions have been the norm for decades. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27742","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-open-source-software"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27742"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27742"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27742\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27742"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27742"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27742"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
