As already announced in 2. Virtual OpenStreetMap Stammtisch Austria, the second OpenStreetMap Stammtisch Austria will take place virtually on September 9, 2021 at https://play. workadventu.re/@/osm-at/osm-virtueller-stammtisch-osterreich/openstreetmapvirtueller-stammtisch

Very interesting discussions took place. At the beginning, the participants familiarized themselves with the virtual area.

The question from talk.at about BEV data was taken up as the first OpenStreetMap discussion contribution. It was discovered that the key addr:suburb returns the delivery area.

In this context, scrubbx presented the address register https://www.adressregister.at/adressregister/

The next three days, FOSSGIS 2021 will take place online! Today (June 6, 2021) is the so-called OSM Sunday, which is dedicated to OpenStreetMap.

Do you have questions about the popular OSM editor JOSM? Do you know a few tricks or tips for solving more or less challenging situations with the JOSM editor?

On Wednesday, March 10, 2021, from 7:00 p.m., interested, questioning, and knowledgeable OSM mappers will meet for a small online exchange session to show each other a few JOSM tricks or simply demonstrate how to map certain objects.

The target group is primarily mappers from Austria, but in principle the doors are open to anyone who can speak or understand German. :-)

Due to the current pandemic, AGIT 2020 cannot be held locally. The organizers will hold it virtually instead!

OSGeo/FOSSGIS/OpenStreetMap have also received a sponsored virtual exhibition stand for the virtual conference! (Thank you, AGIT !)

Since it is hardly possible to have a virtual exhibition stand attended by volunteers for 5 days via video link (who have to go to work during the weekdays), we have come up with the following idea:

The annual general meeting of the association OpenStreetMap Austria will take place online on Thursday, May 7th, 2020 at 6:00 pm CEST via Jitsi (https://meet.jit.si/OSMatVersammlung).

Guests are welcome, although they are not entitled to vote!

The regular term of office for all association bodies ends this year and so elections are due for all these positions. All those who are full members of the association as of today (22/04/2020) are entitled to vote.
