DESCRIPTION:The Fédération des pros d’OpenStreetMap (FPOSM) is the Fren
 ch non‑profit organization that unites companies and professionals whose
  services and tools are built on OpenStreetMap\, and who are committed to 
 keeping OpenStreetMap a healthy digital commons. \n\nLaunched during State
 -of-the-Map France 2023\, the FPOSM now gathers 28 French companies with e
 xpertise in creating\, using\, enhancing and ensuring the quality of OSM d
 ata on topics such as : mobility\, routing and accessibility\, infrastruc
 tures and power grids\, urban planning\, food and agriculture\, tourism\, 
 local business\, community outreach and more. Members also develop and mai
 ntain software around OpenStreetMap\, such as Clearance\, Podoma\, LeBonTa
 g\, GridInspector.\n\nThe FPOSM is the worldwide most advanced structured 
 federation of OSM professionals directly coming from and complementary to 
 the volunteer community and local chapters. \n\nWe will share how and why 
 FPOSM was created\, and how we are committed to preserve OpenStreetMap’s
  ethos and guidelines.\n\nWe will also talk about the FPOSM’s collective
  work:\n\n- OSM advocacy towards public authorities\n- The practical bookl
 et « Everything you need to know about the ODbL licence\, available in F
 rench and English.\n- The guide « OpenStreetMap and Territories »\, wh
 ich brings together a wide range of testimonials from French public sector
  stakeholders who have used OSM across their territories.\n- The organizat
 ion of events like « OpenStreetMap & territoires » that connect profes
 sionals and public actors.\n\nWe’ll wrap up with what we’ve learned\, 
 what challenges we are facing\, and some ideas for starting similar groups
  elsewhere\, so professional ecosystems grow alongside and actively suppor
 t local OSM communities.
