There is a new weekly note with the number 363 from our German colleagues!

Although the AGIT programme did not end until 3 p.m., the EXPO itself was already over after the lunch break. Some of the stand attendants had already dismantled their exhibition booths; the FOSSGIS area was among the slower ones, only starting to disassemble at that time.

The morning was filled with a number of interested parties, and two cups, some pins and a finn were handed over.

There were also explicit open-source lectures as part of the OSGeo Day programme:

Today, Thursday, was the middle of the three AGIT days. It was just as successful as Wednesday. There was something going on all day.

The influx of visitors during the lecture breaks was clearly noticeable, but with the support of Raphael DAS GUPTA from OSM-Switzerland (also present for all three days), it was well managed. Volker Wichmann and Olaf were available as contact persons for the SAGA GIS project. Anita Graser stopped by whenever possible for the QGIS project in the OSGeo area. Markus Schütz was able to present his project Potree for visualising laser scan data. Emmanuel Belo provided information about geOrchestra.

The first of three days of AGIT is already over. This year, the EXPO foyer area is a bit smaller and the open source projects (OpenStreetMap, FOSSGIS, OSGeo, SAGA GIS, geoOrchestra and Potree) are no longer located in the light-flooded side area, but are still well located thanks to the good lighting and prominent position opposite the break buffet.

After some confusion, all the exhibition materials found their way to Salzburg, and the stand was quickly set up together with the FOSSGIS and OSGeo materials. This year’s highlight is the 43’ flatscreen TV, which showed the popular “Show Me the Way” most of the time (the photo upload with the mobile phone does not work at the moment, so there will be current photos with tomorrow’s update).

The new weekly note number 362 from our German colleagues with news about OSM mapping has been published.

This week, the German colleagues from the OSM Blog have again compiled a weekly note with interesting news from the OpenStreetMap world.

The OpenStreetMap project will also be represented at this year’s AGIT, the Symposium and Expo for Applied Geoinformatics in Salzburg! We will be there on all three days (5th to 7th July 2017).

Who from the OSM community would like to support us? We have guest tickets available for people who want to support us at the trade fair. We are also open to the idea of reimbursing costs for travel and accommodation. ;-) Don’t be shy, almost every mapper has more knowledge about OpenStreetMap than most trade fair visitors.

A new Wochennotiz with interesting projects and news from the OSM world, summarised by our German colleagues, is here!
