Hi all, I am giving a 20 minute intro to OSM as part of a larger workshop on Open Source / Open Data at the GIS for Transportation symposium next month. From the web site: "The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials sponsors the annual GIS for Transportation Symposium. It is a chance for persons in government and private industry who are interested in the use of GIS for transportation purposes to get together and share experiences, see state-of-art software, and learn more about this field. The Symposium annually attracts over 400 Symposium registrants in addition to the 30 exhibitors in the technology hall.”
I would like to hear your ideas on what I could cover. I was thinking so far: * State of OSM in the US - # of contributors / contributions, active communities, major imports and plans, external stakeholders and their roles and contributions. * Usage of OSM - big adoptions of OSM, especially in the transportation domain (which ones do you know?) * Legal issues - what can you / can’t you do with OSM, recent developments. What do you think though? Any interesting recent developments in tagging / mapping / OSM at large that I should cover? Do you have a recent Intro-style presentation I could borrow from? I appreciate any feedback on this. Thanks! Martijn _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
