 The thumbnail on https://central.wordcamp.org/schedule/ is the featured
 image of the post about that WordCamp.

 Organizers are asked in a dashboard widget on their WordCamp site to
 submit the picture and about text. Afterwards there is a manual upload.
 See https://make.wordpress.org/community/handbook/wordcamp-organizer
 /first-steps/web-presence/your-page-on-central-wordcamp-org/

 Some ideas:
 1) A page e.g. under Settings on the WordCamp site requesting this
 information might be more useful as the lead organizer can then deputize
 these tasks more easily to the admins of the site. The links here could
 then be picked up by Central automatically.

 2) If the meta property "og:image" is correctly filled on the homepage,
 the image could maybe be taken from there?
