SUMMARY:CNG Conference 2025
DESCRIPTION:CNG Conference 2025 brings together the cloud-native geospatial community to share and discuss the latest advancements and emerging trends in geospatial data. \nOverture Maps is excited to attend CNG with a strong lineup of talks\, workshops\, and panels showcasing our open data approach\, platform-agnostic tooling\, and the Global Entity Reference System (GERS). Whether you’re a cloud-native developer\, open data advocate\, or mapping professional\, you’ll find insights and collaborators across our sessions. \nWednesday\, April 30\n11:15 AM – 12:15 PM | TALK\nSTAC-ing GeoParquet\nBenjamin Clark (Overture Maps & Meta) \nDiscover how Overture Maps is working to make our data easier to find and use by adopting the STAC (SpatioTemporal Asset Catalog) specification. Ben Clark shares the journey from custom release manifests to building STAC representations of our GeoParquet data\, and how this shift enables tool-building and better access for the geospatial community. \n  \n1:15 PM – 2:45 PM | WORKSHOP\nInterfacing with Cloud-Native Overture Data and the GERS Ecosystem\nBenjamin Clark\, Dana Bauer\, Jennings Anderson (Overture Maps Foundation) \nA hands-on session to explore Overture’s open datasets and the Global Entity Reference System (GERS). Topics include: \n\nHow to access and work with Overture’s cloud-native base layers\nBest practices for large-scale geospatial data workflows\nReal-world examples of linking external datasets using GERS\n\nIdeal for developers\, data engineers\, and GIS professionals looking to leverage open\, interoperable mapping data. \n \nThursday\, May 1\n9:45 AM – 11:15 AM | TALK + DISCUSSION\nBeyond Open Data\nMarc Prioleau (Overture Maps Foundation) & Tom Lee (Mapbox) \nWhat makes open data truly usable and sustainable? Join this conversation about building data products that offer traceability\, long-term value\, and reliability for both the public and private sectors. Discussion topics include data licensing\, provenance\, ownership\, and how we assess the impact and worth of geospatial datasets. \n  \n4:30 PM – 5:00 PM | PLENARY PANEL\nBuilders Panel\nPanelists: Mo Sarwat\, Amy Rose (Overture Maps Foundation)\, Sean Gorman \nA closing conversation with leaders from across the geospatial space sharing their views on the tools\, standards\, and ideas shaping the future of cloud-native mapping. \n\nFriday\, May 2\n9:00 AM – 9:30 AM | KEYNOTE & DISCUSSION\nSpeaker: Drew Breunig (Overture Maps Foundation) & more \nDespite growing interest\, geospatial data is still too complex for many to use. Drew Breunig explores what’s holding us back—from fragmented standards to the location/place divide—and how Overture Maps Foundation and GERS can help make spatial data more accessible\, collaborative\, and usable at scale. \n  \nView the complete schedule. \nMeet the Overture Maps Team at CNG 2025\nCome say hi and connect with the team: \n\nMarc Prioleau – Executive Director\nAmy Rose – Chief Technology Officer\nDana Bauer – Product Manager\nDrew Breunig – GERS Evangelist\nBenjamin Clark – Software Engineer | Task Force Lead\nJennings Anderson – Software Engineer | Task Force Lead
