It does indeed ;-)

Radio 4 have certainly covered OSM in the past. Kat Arney attended a hack day 
in London back in 2013 iirc and interviewed a few participants: Robert Scott 
was the one who made it to the on-air programme.

 

Something like a segment on Countryfile about footpath mapping might work, but 
having seen this happen it requires a great deal of legwork beforehand.

Hi all,

 

BBC Radio 4

Seriously… <https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02pc9qx>  - Mapping the Future

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p08jpmk7

 

I meant to come back to this last week but didn't have a chance. Now after 
listening I wonder, did I hear about OSM in this program? Is BBC actually aware 
of OSM at all?!

Hi all,

Just to let you all know - I was interviewed for this programme. The
producer is putting together a "part two" of sorts, since they had
more material than would fit into a single 30 minutes. I think the
second programme will go into OSM in a bit more depth (though, still
from the perspective of HOT, since they've interviewed some
humanitarian OSM users in the field). No idea when it airs, but I'll
try to remember and post about it!

Best
Dan

I've talked before about OSMUK having a role as an industry 'lobby group',
ie being the business-accessible face of OSM in the UKmaybe we should
be pushing this further with the media and with government?
