Community-Treffen

UPDATE: The BOKU team has informed participants today that the mapathon unfortunately has to be cancelled due to unforeseen difficulties.

BOKU and Médecins Sans Frontières are organising another mapathon on Monday, 16 December 2019, starting at 6 p.m. at TÜWI at BOKU.

At a mapathon, mappers meet and map a task from a HOT project to support people and, above all, the aid organisations working there after disasters. The mappers meet at one location and bring their laptops and mice. The organiser provides electricity, food and drinks.

On 9 December 2019, the next Vienna Geo Meetup will take place at Donau City Treff, Arbeiterstrandbadstraße 128, Vienna!

It starts at 6:00 p.m., and the talks begin at 6:30 p.m.:

// wolfgang jörg reports on the vector product of basemap.at // robert kaiser reports on his visit to the sotm 2019 in Heidelberg // andreas voit reports on the Mapathon of Médecins Sans Frontières and gives an excerpt from the current OSM Weekly Note

On Wednesday 29 October 2019, the 5th Vienna GeoMeetup will take place from 6:00 PM.

On Thursday, 17 October 2019, there will be another OSM meet-up at Wieden Bräu in Vienna! It starts at 6:30 pm. Details can be found on the associated wiki page.

Perhaps there is a report about the Mapathon on the previous Monday in addition to a SotM 2019 review?

The Salzburg geo-Stammtisch ‘Maptime’ is organising a Mapaton ( = joint OpenStreetMap mapping) on Wednesday, 8 May 2019!

Here is an excerpt from the original announcement from http://maptime.io/salzburg/event/2019/05/08/Mapthon/:

The next Maptime event will take place in the form of a humanitarian mapping marathon. We will work together to digitise geodata such as houses or streets using satellite images and upload them to OpenStreetMap. This data is then used by organisations such as Médecins Sans Frontières to better plan their missions. No prior knowledge is necessary for digitisation. We will provide an introduction and explain everything relevant. There will be free drinks, snacks (sponsored by Z_GIS) and music. Please bring:
