It’s hard to believe, but true: the video recording of the StateOfTheMap Europe 2011 conference has made it onto the brand new ‘OpenStreetMap Austria’ channel on YouTube!

It is amazing to see that the resolution used at the time was the optimum for the required storage. Originally, YouTube was not used because at that time there was still a limit for the videos that could be uploaded for free, which would have been exceeded for almost every presentation.

This year, the Linuxwochen will once again take place in Vienna, Graz, Linz and Eisenstadt.

• Eisenstadt: 20–21 April 2018
• Vienna: 20–21 April 2018
• Graz: 27–28 April 2018
• Linz: 23 - 24 June 2018

Presentations for Vienna can be submitted until 19 March 2018. There is also room for OpenStreetMap and FOSSGIS relevant topics.

Dear FOSSGIS activists, dear FOSSGIS beginners, OSM enthusiasts and interested parties, From 21-24 March 2018, the FOSSGIS conference of the non-profit FOSSGIS e.V and the OpenStreetMap community with the support of the University of Bonn will take place in Bonn. The FOSSGIS conference is the leading conference in the D-A-CH region for free and open source software for geoinformation systems, as well as for OpenStreetMap and Open Data. Over four days, insights into the latest developments and possible applications of software projects will be provided in lectures for beginners and experts, hands-on workshops and user meetings. The OSM Saturday is intended as an unconference (barcamp) and mapper meeting and is aimed at mappers, developers and those interested in OSM. The exact programme will be determined in the morning during the introduction and welcome. Participation in the Bonn OSM Saturday is free of charge and independent of the FOSSGIS conference. Registration is desired for better planning, either via the FOSSGIS conference registration system or via the OSM wiki. On the evening of the first day of the conference, 21 March 2018, the evening event ‘Campus-Dialoge’ will take place. Further information about the other social events around the FOSSGIS can be found on the conference homepage.
