Re: [Talk-at] EGU mapathon Wien - help needed :)

[Faith Taylor]

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 :)

[Andreas]

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 :)

[Faith Taylor]

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. Knowing the general direction of the event
might spark more interesting ;)

[Talk-at] EGU mapathon Wien - help needed :)

[Faith Taylor]

Hello OSM Austria,

Myself and four colleagues are planning a mapathon at the European
Geosciences Union General Assembly in Vienna the week of the 8th-12th April
(exact date TBC).

It would be wonderful if some of the OSM Austria team are able to help us
in this activity.

Over 10,000 earth scientists attend the conference (although the number at
the mapathon will be less - maybe 100 - 200!). Some of them like us will be
experienced mappers, others will be quite new to this. We are very excited
that this is the first time a mapathon has taken place at the conference.

If this is of interest to you, please do get in touch with me at
faith.tay...@port.ac.uk. My apologies that I do not speak German!

Kindest regards,

Faith
