        <description>iTowns is an open-source, community-driven web framework designed for geospatial data visualization, navigation and interaction. It provides seamless 2D/3D rendering in a single, integrated package. Sponsored by the french National Institute of Geography (IGN) and Ciril Group, iTowns benefits from institutional and industry support to ensure long-term development and innovation. Built with extensibility and interoperability in mind, iTowns out-of-the-box supports commonly-used OGC's open formats and protocols. This includes: fetching aerial photography and raw elevation data from WMS, WMTS and TMS servers, stream in large 3D datasets: 3D Tiles, pointclouds; ..., import various vectors formats: vector tiles, geoJSON, GPX, ..., and those requested by the community!, The iTowns team would like to share the recent technical developments and future roadmap of iTowns and present its ecosystem. We have on-going work for a major 3.0 release, aimed at offering a serious alternative to proprietary geospatial solutions. Thanks to NGI NLNet founding, we hope to offer support for a street-view alternative using Panoramax datasets, WebGPU acceleration and AR/VR for popular headsets. The project's roadmap is openly accessible and can be adjusted collaboratively, allowing sponsors to initiate top-down changes and users/contributors to propose bottom-up modifications. This dual mechanism ensures a dynamic and inclusive process for roadmap updates. Currently, iTowns has a strong French community, with the addition of a few European contributors. With the upcoming 3.0 release and this conference, we hope to convince more players across Europe to join the project, fostering a more diverse and collaborative open-source geospatial ecosystem.
