This was a joint event organised by Charlie (who +regularly organises Maptime Southampton) and Rebecca Kinge who I believe runs +[[Dangerous Ideas Southampton|http://www.dangerousideassouthampton.org.uk/]]. + +The event, [[Mapping Real +Treasure|http://www.dangerousideassouthampton.org.uk/blog/10-june-15-mapping/]] +features some introductions from Charlie and Rebecca, and then several small +talks from various interesting people, and myself. + +Other talks included a map of [[fruit trees|https://fallingfruit.org/]], +[[Placebook|http://theplacebook.org.uk/]], some work by the University of +Southampton and SUSU relating to students and local businesses from [[Julia +Kendal|http://www.southampton.ac.uk/engineering/about/staff/jh1f11.page]], +Chris Gutteridge's recent [[Minecraft/OpenStreetMap/Open Data +project|https://twitter.com/cgutteridge/status/607686009191571456]], and some +very cool OpenStreetMap jigsaw pieces from Rebecca's husband (whose name I +cannot remember/find). + +The [[slides|projects/osm/osm-intro/osm-intro/index.html]] ([[git +repository|http://git.cbaines.net/osm-intro/]]) for my talk are +available. The aim was to give a brief introduction to what [[!taglink +OpenStreetMap]] is, particularly mentioning interesting things like the +[[Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team|http://hotosm.org/]]. + +I was not quite expecting to be presenting to such a large (~50 people!) varied +audience (age and gender). In hindsight, I should have probably done a better +_sell_ of OSM, rather than the talk I gave, which was more technical in nature. +I ended up talking more on the nature of OSM being a digital map, consisting of +data, and skipping over the slides I had on editing OSM, I did however demo +using iD at the end of the presentation (although I should have perhaps had +this as a bigger part). + +Towards the end of the presentation, I discussed the legal side of OSM, in +terms of the copyright of the data, and the licensing. Although, again I am +unsure if I approached this issue correctly, I think I should have probably +given examples of what you can do with OSM, and then related this back to the +license and copyright. + +I should probably also mention the Maptime May meetup, where I ran a smaller +workshop on OpenStreetMap and the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team. For this I +wrote two presentations, one for +[[OSM|projects/osm/osm-introductory-workshop/]] and the other specifically for +[[HOT|projects/osm/hot-introductory-workshop/]]. The shorter presentation I +gave recently was adapted from these two presentations. diff --git a/posts/maptime_southampton_june_2015/poster.jpg b/posts/maptime_southampton_june_2015/poster.jpg new file mode 120000 index 0000000..05be53e --- /dev/null +++ b/posts/maptime_southampton_june_2015/poster.jpg @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +../../.git/annex/objects/QW/Qp/SHA256E-s1048406--8e3ba13e056944cbd793c98055aab2414ba7509f145a586324911d18e7125cfc.jpg/SHA256E-s1048406--8e3ba13e056944cbd793c98055aab2414ba7509f145a586324911d18e7125cfc.jpg \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/projects/osm/osm-intro.mdwn b/projects/osm/osm-intro.mdwn new file mode 100644 index 0000000..4d0d46c --- /dev/null +++ b/projects/osm/osm-intro.mdwn @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +[[!meta title="OSM Introductory Presentation"]] + +I wrote this to run at the June [[!taglink Maptime]] Southampton meetup, +([[posts/maptime_southampton_june_2015]]). + +View the Slides diff --git a/projects/osm/osm-intro/osm-intro b/projects/osm/osm-intro/osm-intro new file mode 160000 index 0000000..151e1e5 --- /dev/null +++ b/projects/osm/osm-intro/osm-intro @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +Subproject commit 151e1e5ac01a3c2b06e5aa75b28168e8a35463d8 diff --git a/tags/OpenStreetMap.mdwn b/tags/OpenStreetMap.mdwn new file mode 100644 index 0000000..e006c4c --- /dev/null +++ b/tags/OpenStreetMap.mdwn @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +[[!meta title="pages tagged OpenStreetMap"]] + +[[!inline pages="tagged(OpenStreetMap)" actions="no" archive="yes" +feedshow=10]] -- cgit v1.2.3
