Re: [talk-au] Funding for OpenStreetMap initiatives

Hi all, When this was raised last year we had some wonderful suggestions on how OSM funds could be used, but we lacked people willing to implement them. I wanted to bump this thread and see if anyone is willing to put their hand up to arrange OSM badges, business cards, drones, cameras, events,

Hi all, Thrilled at the enthusiastic response to this and the range of suggestions. A bit of homework for us at the OSM Special Interest Group (OSM SIG) is to get a proper application form together shaped by your suggestions. I'll discuss this with OSGeo Oceania's SIG which all are welcome to

Hi everyone, There have been conversations in the OSM community about creating a more formalised group to coordinate OSM activities in the region. This would be important step to getting recognition as a local chapter of the OpenStreetMap Foundation which would in turn allow us to collaborate

Hi Fink, Ed from Mapillary here. Nicely done! Curious what use cases you have in mind. Both Mapillary and OpenStreetCam layers can be accessed in iD/JOSM, but not so easily with a lat/lon. Not a criticism at all, just wondering what prompted this idea in case there is anything we can do with
