Re: [OSGeo Oceania] Oceania Geospatial Symposium - talk and invitation to contribute
Hi Adam, in WA we have an informal meetup group, we call ourselves "geogeeks" (https://geogeeks.org/). In addition to meetups about QGIS, OSM, etc, we have a Slack workspace where we plan meetups and talk open geospatial. For recreational purposes only :) Mostly the same group of people have been involved in organising FOSS4G Perth. It's pretty great to have a little local community of people interested in this stuff, and I encourage anyone who wants it to happen in their home city/town/village to get a microgrant, buy some food, and invite fellow enthusiasts to get together and talk open geospatial!

Re: [OSGeo Oceania] Oceania Geospatial Symposium - talk and invitation to contribute
Hi Adam, For tahitian/french polynesia community, we meet occasionaly and the mailing list here https://listes.openstreetmap.fr/wws/info/local-polynesie helps to get organized. Plus this OSM community index might be helpful? https://openstreetmap.community/ The talk pacific is not much used also, originally planed as a discussion space for pacific islanders, I guess it may take time, distance doesnt help (great to have again regional meetings!) and culture to be taken into account, Bests --- Violaine Le 10.11.2022 08:42, Adam Steer a écrit : > Thanks Phil > > I reckon the brand new Oceania discourse community in OSM will also be > listed there in plenty of time :) > > Cheers > > Adam > > On Thu, 10 Nov 2022 at 13:16, Phil Wyatt wrote: > >> Hi Adam, In regard to OSM there are a few channels listed here >> https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Mapping_Community [1] Discord >> is pretty active - OpenStreetMap World with a regional Oceania channel >> (mainly used by Aussies at this stage) It would be great if there were more >> regional folks so we can support each other in OpenStreetMap.

Thanks Phil I reckon the brand new Oceania discourse community in OSM will also be listed there in plenty of time :) Cheers Adam On Thu, 10 Nov 2022 at 13:16, Phil Wyatt wrote: > > Hi Adam, > > In regard to OSM there are a few channels listed here > > https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Mapping_Community > > Discord is pretty active - OpenStreetMap World with a regional Oceania > channel (mainly used by Aussies at this stage) > > It would be great if there were more regional folks so we can support each > other in OpenStreetMap. > > Cheers - Phil (aka tastrax) > > -Original Message- > From: Oceania On Behalf Of Adam Steer > Sent: Thursday, 10 November 2022 6:42 PM > To: OSgeo - Oceania > Subject: [OSGeo Oceania] Oceania Geospatial Symposium - talk and invitation > to contribute > > Hi Oceanians > > I am invited to present OSGeo at the Oceania Geospatial Symposium, so I have > 15 minutes to talk about global and local OSGeo roles and ways to > participate. > > What are, as of November 2022 (and hopefully some time into the future), the > best channels for getting connected to OSGeo Oceania? > Mailing lists and slack seem pretty quiet - is there community chat > elsewhere?

Re: [OSGeo Oceania] Oceania Geospatial Symposium - talk and invitation to contribute
Hi Adam, In regard to OSM there are a few channels listed here https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Mapping_Community Discord is pretty active - OpenStreetMap World with a regional Oceania channel (mainly used by Aussies at this stage) It would be great if there were more regional folks so we can support each other in OpenStreetMap.
