2019-05-28 Orekit Day 2019 – Presentations and first impressions
Thanks to our impressive and inspiring community!
The Orekit Day 2019 just happened in Darmstadt (Germany), on May 23rd and we are very happy to note that this second edition has been a great success. Sixty persons from the Orekit community, from space agencies, IT companies and universities / engineering schools have attended this symposium. The nine presentations, which you can find below, have reached a very high-level of quality, and stimulated lots of fruitful exchanges on technical topics as well as on organization topics.
We have had evidence that Orekit is widely-used, is considered as very efficient by its users, benefits from its living community and is enriched by its contributors / developers for the benefit of all.
After this event, we are even more convinced that the Open Source approach with a shared governance is a great way to produce very high-quality software, and we encourage everybody to make Orekit evolve thanks to questions, scope enhancement suggestions or contributions.
Thanks again to all presenters and participants! And hope to see you all at the next Orekit Day!
The Orekit Day organization committee.
