Re: [Talk-at] EGU mapathon Wien - help needed :)
Oops sorry I misinterpreted your email Stefan - hope I didn't cause offence
:)!
We haven't set a task yet - suggestions welcome. If there is an active
beginner task on the HOT Tasking manager, we may do this. Or maybe some
parts of Northern Malawi where I work on risk from natural hazards like
earthquakes (through the Teach OSM tasking manager).
Best wishes,
Faith

Re: [Talk-at] EGU mapathon Wien - help needed :)
Hi Faith,
Stefan asked for the topic of the mapathon and not what it is. There
were few mapathons in Austria in the past.
I only attended one which was organized by the Red Cross organisation
and we had to map some place at Ethiopia for a water ressource project.
Kind regards
Andreas as Geologist

Re: [Talk-at] EGU mapathon Wien - help needed :)
Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your interest. A mapathon is a mapping party ('mapping
marathon'). These are quite popular in London:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAcsCmvG2hs
A group gets together to work on mapping an area through the HOT Tasking
Manager, and usually pizza is served :)
If these don't already, it would be great if these were a regular event in
Austria. They are a good way to meet other people interested in GIS and OSM.
Best wishes,
Faith

Hi Faith, I probably won't attend or help out but I was still wondering if the mapathon has some kind of topic already or if it is more like a general OSM (introdcution) workshop.
