[Johan Van de Wauw]

I have not seen one in the list of proposals. In any case if we get very
similar presentations, we may contact the presenters to present together if
there are too many submissions.

So feel free to submit one!

[OSM-talk] FOSDEM geospatial: call for participation

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Please forward!

FOSDEM is a free and non-commercial event bringing together about 8000
developers in Brussels, Belgium. The goal is to provide open source
software developers and communities a place to meet and share
thoughts. The participation is free of charge, although donations are
welcome. The next edition will take place on 3 - 4 February 2018. For
the fourth time there will be a Geospatial devroom and will be
happening on Sunday *4/2/2018*!

Geospatial technologies and mapping used to be specialist work, but
nowadays location and maps are becoming part of many
projects/applications, which usually use only a small subset of the
possibilities the data and software offer.

The geospatial devroom is the place to talk about open, geo-related
data and software and their ecosystem. This includes standards and
tools, e.g. for spatial databases, and online mapping, geospatial
services, used for collecting, storing, delivering, analysing, and
visualizing purposes.

We welcome submissions about:
* Web and desktop GIS applications;
* Collaborative editing / versioning of geodata and metadata;
* Interoperable geospatial web services and specifications;
* Collection of data using sensors / UAVs / satellites;
* Geo-analytic algorithms / libraries;
* Geospatial extensions for classical databases (indexes, operations)
and dedicated databases;
* Big geodata, distributed and scalable GIS applications;
* Volunteered Geographic information - Crowdsourced geodata.

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR PROPOSAL FOR A TALK

Are you thrilled to present your work to other open source developers?
Would you like to run a discussion? Any other ideas? Please submit
your proposal at:

 https://fosdem.org/submit

Make sure to select the 'Geospatial devroom' as 'Track'. If you have
an account from previous years, you should be using the same.

Please specify in the notes if you prefer for your presentation either
a short timeslot (lightning talks ~10 minutes) or a long timeslot (20
minutes presentation + discussion). However, note that time slots are
indicative and will be assigned according to the timing of the
session.

The DEADLINE for submissions is Thursday **1st December 2017**.

Notification of acceptance will be sent to the Authors by 11/12/2017
at the latest.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch
with the organisers of the devroom at fosdem-geospatial at gisky.be!

Want to know what FOSDEM geospatial is like? Check out the videos and
the presentations of our previous editions.

[OSM-talk-be] Help organise a geospatial devroom at FOSDEM?

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Hi all,

Fosdem is the largest free and open source developers meeting in
Europe, with 7000+ participants.

I have organised a geospatial devroom the last years, and I'm looking
for people who would like to support doing another one next year (eg
promote the event / help with spreading the call for papers / help
with video during the event /... )

FOSDEM will take place 3&4 February 2018 in Brussels. Proposals for a
devroom can be filed until _tomorrow_, so if you would like to join
answer as soon as possible.

It would be nice if the organising team can be a mixture of people
from the different geo-communities so we can reach out to as many
people as possible.

Kind Regards,
Johan

[OSM-talk-be] OSM track/session/... at FOSS4G Belgium?

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Hi all,

OSGeo Belgium plans to organize another FOSS4G Belgium event in
Brussels at the end of october (tentative date is 26/10)
http://2017.foss4g.be/

The conference gives users and developers of free and open source
geospatial software a chance to to gather.

In the past it has been suggested many times that openstreetmap
belgium could/should play a larger role in the conference. Eg a
special OSM track or a mapping workshop/tutorial/mapathon/...

Anyone suggestions on what would be the best format?

Kind Regards,
Johan

[OSM-talk-be] Fwd: present OpenStreetMap at BEGeo (OSGeo track)

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Hello everyone,

OSGeo.be will have a track at the next BeGeo conference (march 16)
[1]. For those who do not know it: it is the largest "geospatial"
conference in Belgium with about 2000 participants.

We think it would be a good idea to have a presentation on
OpenStreetMap as well. Is someone from the OSM Belgium community
available for doing such a presentation?

Please reply asap, as we want to finalise the program this week.

Kind Regards,
Johan

[OSM-talk-be] Interior/accesibility mapping for FOSDEM

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Hi all,

FOSDEM[1] is the largest open source conference of Europe and will be
happening the first weekend of february.

For the first time this year the organizers are trying to make an
application (interior mapping/routing) to help people, especially
users of wheelchairs find their way around the campus.

Our original plan was to use and enhance Open streetmap for this, but
given the short time left (and the fact that indoor mapping +
accessibility + a temporary event are not ideal i open streetmap) it
was decided to use the indoor navigation software developed for CCC.

Work is happening in github[2], and you can check work in progress at
[3]. If you would like to help out, feel free to contact me or send a
pull request:-) You can also find us on freenode irc on
#fosdem-volunteers and #fosdem-nav. Since we have a few members who
are working at or close to ULB, it may also be useful that they check
the proposed routes and watch eg for steps. If we know it well enough
in advance we can still order ramps for doorsills, ...

Also during the event (and on friday) we can still use volunteers.
Feel free to register at http://volunteers.fosdem.org/

Last but not least, don't forget that on Sunday there will be a
geospatial track - I'm sure there will be talks which will interest
you :-) We will have a slightly larger room, so all invited!

[OSM-talk-be] Fwd: Schedule Geospatial devroom at FOSDEM (Brussels - 31/1)

[Johan Van de Wauw]

I have the honour to present to present to you the schedule for the
geospatial devroom at FOSDEM , which will happen on Sunday 31/01/2016.

https://fosdem.org/2016/schedule/track/geospatial/

We have a nice lineup with some well known GIS tools, moving over to
new developments happening at OSGeo and Open Streetmap. 3D
visualisation is the topic of different presentations around noon. And
should you prefer backend work, the afternoon has a lineup of no less
than 4 different geospatial databases.

To close the day we expect a nice keynote - stay tuned for more info!

For all of you who don't know FOSDEM: FOSDEM is a free and
non-commercial event bringing together about 5000 developers in
Brussels, Belgium. The goal is to provide open source software
developers and communities a place to meet and share thoughts. The
participation is free of charge, although donations are welcome. The
next edition will take place the last weekend ofJanuary 30 - 31 2016.
This year for the second time there will be a Geospatial devroom on
Sunday 31/1/2016.

Hope to see all of you in Brussels!

Kind Regards,
Johan

Misschien nuttig om te weten: je kan uit de gegevens zien of een punt
al dan niet ingemeten is (laag gvg, gevelpunt). Enkel punten vanop de
straat zichtbaar worden ingemeten. Indien een nieuw gebouw ingemeten
wordt en nog niet aangevuld is met luchtfotodata wordt er gewoon een
standaardafstand van 5m loodrecht op de gevel gebruikt.

Ik wou jullie het voorbeeld van mijn straat laten zien, maar helaas is
dat ondertussen al wel aangevuld op basis van luchtfoto.

[OSM-talk] Reminder: Call for papers Geospatial devroom @ FOSDEM - deadline extended to 7 december

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Please forward!

FOSDEM is a free and non-commercial event bringing together about 5000
developers in Brussels, Belgium. The goal is to provide open source
software developers and communities a place to meet and share
thoughts. The participation is free of charge, although donations are
welcome. The next edition will take place the last weekend ofJanuary
30 - 31 2016. This year for the second time there will be a Geospatial
devroomon Sunday 31/1/2016, organised by members of the OSGeo,
Locationtech and OpenStreetMap communities.

Geospatial technology is becoming rapidly mainstream. The idea
underpinning the geospatial devroom is bringing together developers
with different backgrounds to disclosethe opportunities offered by
cutting-edge open source geospatial technologies. Due to the success
of last years devroom, a Belgium local chapter of OSGeo, OSGeo.be was
founded, and is now taking part of the organisation of the devroom as
driving community.

The Geospatial devroom is the place to talk about the state of the art
of open, geo-related data, free and open source geospatial software
and its ecosystem. This includes standards and tools, e.g. spatial
databases, online mapping tools, geospatial services, used for
collecting, storing, delivering, analysing, and visualizing geodata.
We welcome submissions about:

* Web and desktop GIS applications
* Interoperable geospatial web services and specifications
* Collection of data using sensors/drones/satellites
* Open hardware for geospatial applications
* Geo-analytic algorithms/libraries
* Geospatial extensions for classical databases (indexes, operations)
and dedicated databases
* Collaborative editing/versioning of geodata
* Big geodata, scalable GIS applications
* Volunteered Geograpic information - Crowdsourced data

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR PROPOSAL FOR A TALK

Are you thrilled to present your work to other open source developers?
Would you like to run a discussion? Any other ideas? Please submit
your proposal using the Pentabarf event planning tool at:

https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM16

Make sure to select the 'Geospatial devroom' as  'Track'. Please,
specify in the notes if you prefer for your presentation either a
short timeslot (lightning talks ~10 minutes) or along timeslot (20
minutes presentation + discussion). However, note that time slots are
indicative and will be assigned according to the needs of the session.


As reminders were send out quite late, The DEADLINE for submissions
has been extended to **Monday 7 December 2015**.
Notification of acceptance will be sent to the Authors by Friday
11/12/2015 at the latest.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch
with the organisers of the devroom at fosdem-geospatial at gisky.be!

Hi all,

Like last year, there will be a geospatial devroom @FOSDEM [1]
A gentle reminder that the deadline for submitting proposals to the
geospatial devroom is *tomorrow* already! We hope to see some more
contributions from the open streetmap community this year, so don't
hesitate to submit your proposal!

If you don't have time to write an abstract in time, feel free to just
submit a title - you can still edit the abstract later, but having
titles fast helps making a balanced program.

Should you have any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch with
the organisers of the devroom at fosdem-geospatial at gisky.be

Joost,

I agree that OpenStreetMap seems the best place to store the data.

But I think we should first check what would be useful to map.

Hello Christophe,

First of all thanks for the  idea. I was in a hurry preparing my
"conclusions and outlook for osgeo.be" presentation. One of the things I
wanted to add was how we can use FOSS4G to create value - somewhat
triggered by the "where is the money" discussion just before.

Anyway, I'm adding the openstreetmap be mailing list as they have much more
experience in organising mapping parties.

To the OSM folks: the idea is to organise a "mapping party" targeted
towards homeless and socially disabled people. Full thread below (I added
an inline comment).

Kind Regards,
Johan

That is surely the case - they may also help finding out what is really
important, how maps are probably going to be used (print, smartphone,
language , ...?), ... that is much more important than eg what software we
are going to use.

I'd actually suggest sitting together and brainstorming with at least some
of them first, so we can prepare the mapping party, this can be on short
notice.

Hi OSM Belgium folks,

FOSDEM is a free open source event bringing together about 5000
developers in Brussels, Belgium. The goal is to provide open source

Re: [OSM-talk-be] import AGIV CRAB-data

[Johan Van de Wauw]

3010 Leuven is de enige correcte schrijfwijze: Leuven is de gemeente,
niet Kessel-Lo.

http://www.bpost.be/adressering/#2

• Gebruik bij voorkeur de naam van de fusiegemeente (die van uw gemeentehuis).

2014-11-03 23:48 GMT+01:00 Jo winfi...@gmail.com:
 Ik heb 's een straat in 3010 Kessel-Lo afgehaald. Vreemd genoeg komt daar nu
 addr:city=Leuven uit. Zitten de deelgemeentes ook in de data van CRAB? Ik
 vind 3010 of 3012 Leuven ipv Kessel-Lo/Wilsele niet bepaald logisch. Al weet
 ik wel dat je dat wat De Post betreft ook zo mag schrijven. Als het zo niet
 in CRAB zit en wij geraken het erover eens dat we de deelgemeentes in de
 adressen willen gebruiken, dan zorg ik wel voor een lookuptabel.

 De code wijzigen voor de (hopelijk) enkele dagen dat dit ongemak zal duren

 Wel, ik gebruik de out center abstractie van overpass (het bespaart

 Dus misschien ontbreekt die nog op de Russische versie.

 dan heb je geluk. In mijn regio is het veel slechter gesteld met de

 ZN is waarschijnlijk zonder nummer, een kapel ? een kerk ? in Edegem is er

CRAB wordt per gemeente bijgehouden. Voor veel gemeenten is dat geen
prioriteit. De burgemeester gaat daar geen stemmen mee winnen hé.
In veel andere gemeenten zijn ze wel al gestart maar nog niet klaar
met het controleren van de gemeenten, iets wat velen afgewerkt willen
hebben tegen midden volgend jaar.

Ik zou echt de opmerking van Ben ter harte nemen: ik vind het zonde
dat we in OSM zaken gaan corrigeren in het CRAB zonder die terug te
melden, en al zeker als het in gemeenten is waar de controle nu ook al
bezig is.

Weet dat veel Vlaamse overheidsdiensten momenteel bezig zijn hun
databanken aan te passen zodat ze meer en meer gebruik gaan maken van
het CRAB (ik ben zelf betrokken bij 2 projecten). Als je verbeteringen
hebt zou het zonde zijn dat zij die ook niet krijgen.

Dan krijg je per adres maar 1 positie (de beste) en er zijn zelfs een

2014-10-24 12:42 GMT+02:00 Thomas o...@aptum.nl:
 Ik heb die adressenlijst even gedownload en voor een paar straten bekeken.
 Dat verheldert ook wel een paar zaken.

 Weer kwam ik een geval tegen met als huisnummer 'ZN'. In deze lijst heeft
 hij echter wel een locatie meegekregen. Ik ken de betreffende plaats, en
 begrijp nu dat het een braakliggend perceel betreft waar in de nummering
 rekening is mee gehouden. Het huisnummer is dus nog niet toegekend, maar wel
 al gereserveerd, of zo iets.

ZN komt soms ook voor bij de enige gebouwen in een straat. Bij bvb
kloosters enzo.

Er is hier ook ruimte voor interpretatie.

 Alle adressen hebben per huisnummer een locatie gekregen. Vervolgens is elk
 'BUSNR' voor dat punt geregistreerd in een apart punt met dezelfde locatie.
 Zoals Sander zegt kunnen deze punten genegeerd worden, en volstaat het om de
 unieke 'HUISNR's in het script op te nemen.

 Al ligt het misschien toch net wat ingewikkelder. Voor een bepaalde locatie
 (Kastanjelaan, Oostende, rond huisnummer 2) zie ik 24 (!) punten op elkaar
 liggen. Het betreft een klein appartementsgebouw. Het veld 'APPTNR' is
 steeds leeg. Voor HUISNR zijn er de waarden 2, 2_107, 2_109, 2_209, 2_309,
 2A en 2D. Al deze 'HUISNR's met een underscore hebben als herkomst
 'geinterpoleerdObvNevenliggendeHuisnummersGebouw'. In de dataset die
 ingeladen wordt met het script van Sander waren die 4 huisnummers met een
 underscore inderdaad de 4 punten die als 'zonder locatie' geregistreerd
 waren. In deze dataset hebben ze dus wel een locatie, maar vallen ze samen
 met het kale huisnr.

Het CRAB in Oostende is nog niet initieel gevalideerd, wat zoveel wil
zeggen dan dat er eigenlijk enkel een automatische import gebeurd is
van allerlei bestanden.

 Zag idd dat bij mol de xml geen population key bevat.  Ik heb bij wijze
 van test eens Mol aangevuld met gegevens uit wikipedia.   Die komt er
 momenteel al uit via overpass

 Het is dus gewoon kwestie van die gegevens erin te steken , zie
 https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1468993933

 Wat betreft uw vragen:


 1) de 'population' is niet overal ingevuld, en sommige getallen zijn zo
 rond dat ik ze niet erg betrouwbaar vind. Vervelend dat de info vooral
 schijnt te ontbreken bij middelgrote steden in Vlaanderen (Turnhout,
 Mol, Mechelen...) Is er een betere manier om aan de bevolkingsaantallen
 per stad te geraken? Het komt niet echt aan op de precieze getallen, de
 bedoeling is om de lokaliteiten te kunnen categoriseren (bv. meer dan
 5000, meer dan 2, meer dan 30)


 - Dit zijn gewoon schattingen naar alle waarschijnlijkheid. Je kan er
 niet meer uitkrijgen dan wat erin zit, met een overpass export van de
 ontbrekende kan je die in JOSM opendoen en wikipedia data erin steken.
 Die lijkt me toch vrij recent voor bv Mol (01-01-2014 rfr. wiki)


 2) her en der lees ik dat het 'not done' zou zijn om API's te gebruiken
 voor downloads - en op deze mailinglist werd me dat net aanbevolen? Ik
 wil overigens best overwegen om een extra parameter mee te geven om de
 prioriteit te verlagen, dit is toch een batchproces dat gerust enkele
 uren mag staan draaien. En ik maak me niet al te veel gewetensbezwaren
 over het overbelasten van de overpass-server want dit is behoorlijk
 statische data, die ga ik neit om de haverklap refreshen, misschien maar
 één keertje per jaar of zo.

 - Ik denk dat API's net bedoeld zijn voor data gestructureerd eruit te
 halen.  Maar OverPass heeft daar geen probleem mee.  Volgens de mailing
 lijsten ivm. Overpass moedigen ze aan van timeouts te gebruiken, maar
 niet te klein.  Als het een grote query is raden ze aan van hem gewoon
 te laten gaan.  Het systeem zelf heeft safety's in place.  Wat ze niet
 graag hebben is dat je geduld verliest en de query cancelled om hem
 opnieuw te runnen.  Van die 1 keer per jaar gaan ze niet sterven, uw
 enkele request verdwijnt in de ruis van de serverlogs.  Belgie is ook
 klein. Ik doe geregeld exports van specifieke keys over Benelux.  Gewoon
 gezond verstand gebruiken.  Mijn queries zijn meestal zwaar
 geparametriseerd dus gaan snel werken.   Overpass is ook volledig
 ontworpen voor heavy queries.Hoe leuk is nu speelgoed als je het
 niet mag uitpakken ;-)

 Je moet trouwens hard zoeken voor hun terms of service te vinden.  Hun
 frontpage schreeuwt bijna : Abuse me ;-)

 The conference is aimed at developers, but maybe they want to do some
 mapping in between to relax a bit :-) The past years there was quite a bit
 of interest.

 OSM was present on FOSDEM for the past few years, but last year it was a
 one man show. It only makes sense to have a stand if we can man it with 3
 persons all the time. Unfortunately I won't be able to be present full time
 myself.


Hello,

There is a joint proposal for a geospatial devroom (OSGeo, Locationtech and
OSM people), we may want to wait if we have it  or not (will be announced
1/10) before filing a request for a stand.

You should actually also check with OSM france (Gael Musquet). AFAIK hey
were planning to have a stand also.

[OSM-talk-be] Fwd: [OSGeo-Discuss] Free GIS Day November 6, 2014 OSGéo - IGEAT (ULB) – Brussels (Belgium)

[Johan Van de Wauw]

This may be of interest for OSM people


BE-OPENGIS-FR
November 6, 2014
Université Libre de Bruxelles

The Institute of Environmental Management and Spatial Planning (IGEAT)
of the Free University of Brussels (ULB) and OSGeo-fr are organising
the BE-OpenGIS-FR on November 6, 2014 at the ULB.

This day of conferences and practice sessions (in French) is aimed at
anyone using free and open source GIS tools in their professional life
or studies. We hope to gather together those scientists,
administrations, private companies and interested individuals using
and/or developing these tools, or just being curious about them.

The first part of the day will cover three topics in the form of presentations:

1) State and perspectives of public OpenData in the three Belgian
regions and in Africa

2) Presentation of some selected free and open source tools in GIS
including the possibilities of integrating them into existing
proprietary infrastructures

3) Examples of concrete applications using free and open source GIS tools

Presenters come from administrations, private companies and academics
active in the field.

The second part of the day is dedicated to practical workshops and
demonstrations on topics such as

- Using QGIS to create your customized, tailor-made application
- Spatial analysis and cartography with R
- A toolchain for putting your maps on the Web
- Advanced spatial analysis with GRASS 7

The aim of the day is to inform and promote, but also to discuss
current issues and needs as well as reflect on the opportunity of
building up a community of FOSS-GIS users and contributors in Belgium.

For more information contact Moritz Lennert (moritz.lenn...@ulb.ac.be).
A website will be up and running soon at http://be-opengis.ulb.ac.be/.

 Hi Johan,

 I am bit lost in understanding the format of devrooms. First I was
 thinking of a space where developers meet for pitching their ideas and
 forming groups to get their hands dirty in 1-3 days of collaborative
 ideas generation, of drafting concepts, and of programming. But then I
 read something about talks and checked the schedule of FOSDEM 2014 -
 it seems that a devroom is something similar to a session or track we
 know from other conferences and thus contains lots of talks instead of
 programming. However, at least the talks seem to be from programmers
 for programmers. Nevertheless, I am a bit confused.

 I very much like the idea of a geospatial devroom. But I would be
 happy to clarify first what format you and others have in mind - just
 talks, unconference, hackdays, ..., a mix of it? Please let me know
 what you have in mind.


Martin,

Thanks for your comments. I've been at FOSDEM so many years that I
just assumed everyone would understand.

Indeed, until now most devrooms were more or less like conference
talks, but as you say from developer to developer. I think we should
more or less keep to this type of schedule if we want to attract
people from other projects to the room. If we just don't have
something catchy on the schedule people from outside our projects may
be unlikely to join.
This being said I think we could definitely add one timeslot where
everyone in the room can present quickly his ideas. Or timeslots where
we can have a collaborative discussion eg Let's build openaerialmap.
 I think it would be useful to have at least timeslots with a title
and a description for the schedule to lure in other developers.

Everything above is just my opinion and I should add that I little or
no experience with going to any unconferences/... and I'm really open
to any other suggestions and ideas.

There is always a call for papers (see the list for last year:
https://archive.fosdem.org/2014/news/2013-10-02-accepted-devrooms/).
But it is up to the organizers to choose who presents what, so we can
definitely invite/encourage people to come.
Just keep in mind that FOSDEM will not provide funds for accomodating
them (we could look for sponsors for the devroom, but it will be with
low visibility).

If you have high profile people in mind you could try convincing
them to submit a talk for a main track (or even keynote - I'm thinking
about Humanitarian Open Streetmap). Then selection is done by FOSDEM
staff. They can make sure the talk will not be on the same day as the
devroom. An then it is up to us to convince them to pay us a humble
visit :-)

 Okay, thanks a lot. So we may talk about a potential schedule for the
 geospatial devroom. I agree, we should keep the type of schedule since
 it is known. But, as suggested, we might mix it with what you have
 summed up very nicely (ideas sharing, collaborative sessions ...). So
 a day could be structured as follows:

 Arrive and coffee
 Welcome, housekeeping, about the day and its format
 Keynote(s) (invited speakers)
 Coffee break
 Lightning Talks (me and my projects, 2min each, to get introduced to each 
 other)
 Coffee break
 Talks, talks, talks (speakers 20-30min each)
 Lunch break
 Talks, talks, talks (speakers 20-30min each)
 Coffee break
 Pitching ideas / topics for breakout sessions / collaborative discussions
 Breakout sessions / collaborative discussions (in groups)
 Coffee break
 Results / summaries of break out sessions
 Wrap-up

 We may reduce or extend the parts following the unconference type. But
 it would still mean that speakers are an essential part of the
 geospatial devroom.

 Johan, next question: Speakers are invited or do they apply / submit
 an abstract?

 Martin

 Hi Johan,

 I am bit lost in understanding the format of devrooms. First I was
 thinking of a space where developers meet for pitching their ideas and
 forming groups to get their hands dirty in 1-3 days of collaborative
 ideas generation, of drafting concepts, and of programming. But then I
 read something about talks and checked the schedule of FOSDEM 2014 -
 it seems that a devroom is something similar to a session or track we
 know from other conferences and thus contains lots of talks instead of
 programming. However, at least the talks seem to be from programmers
 for programmers. Nevertheless, I am a bit confused.

 I very much like the idea of a geospatial devroom. But I would be
 happy to clarify first what format you and others have in mind - just
 talks, unconference, hackdays, ..., a mix of it? Please let me know
 what you have in mind.


 Martin,

 Thanks for your comments. I've been at FOSDEM so many years that I
 just assumed everyone would understand.

 Indeed, until now most devrooms were more or less like conference
 talks, but as you say from developer to developer. I think we should
 more or less keep to this type of schedule if we want to attract
 people from other projects to the room. If we just don't have
 something catchy on the schedule people from outside our projects may
 be unlikely to join.
 This being said I think we could definitely add one timeslot where
 everyone in the room can present quickly his ideas. Or timeslots where
 we can have a collaborative discussion eg Let's build openaerialmap.
  I think it would be useful to have at least timeslots with a title
 and a description for the schedule to lure in other developers.

 Everything above is just my opinion and I should add that I little or
 no experience with going to any unconferences/... and I'm really open
 to any other suggestions and ideas.

[OSM-talk] FOSDEM 2015: proposal for a geospatial devroom

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Hello everyone,

FOSDEM[1] is a free open source event bringing together about 5000
developers together in Brussels, Belgium. The goal is to provide open
source software developers and communities a place to meet to. The
next edition will take place the weekend 31/1 - 1/2/2015.

Last edition (in february this year) both Osgeo and Openstreetmap had
a stand and there was a lot of interest in geospatial technologies.

That is why the idea was coined to organise a geospatial devroom the
next edition.

Since the call for participation for developer rooms and main tracks
is now open [2], I would like to start writing a proposal [3], so
hopefully we can have a geospatial devroom next year.

Rather than organising the devroom organised by one project FOSDEM
really prefers joint organisation Proposals involving collaboration
across project or domain boundaries are strongly encouraged. That's
why I'm sending this mail to Osgeo, OSM and locationtech.

If you would like organising the devroom (writing the proposal and
selecting the presentations) and will be present, please get in touch
or add your name to my current draft proposal [3].

Note that one can also propose main track presentations. For main
track speakers travel expenses and accommodation will be covered by
the organisation. This is not the case for the devroom.

Finally a reminder that we are only sending a proposal for a devroom
- We are not sure it will be accepted. Competition will be fierce.

Cheers,
Johan

Re: [OSM-talk-be] zoominopuwdak

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Die huisnummers per perceel zitten in de CRAB databank:
http://www.agiv.be/gis/projecten/?artid=94
Van de overheid dus.

2009/9/24 Luc Van den Troost luc.a...@gmail.com:
 Voor zover ik kon zien zijn de 'foto's' een samenvoeging van 5
 verschillende data.

 1. een 'traditionele' luchtfoto. Deze LIJKT me op het eerste zicht
 dezelfde te zijn als degene die ook op google maps wordt gebruikt,
 vermits de inkijkhoeken gelijk zijn - zo is bv. onze voorgevel hierop
 gelijkaardig te zien -
 2. een luchtfoto met warmtecamera, waarop de inkijkhoeken in ieder geval
 anders zijn. Daarop ligt immers 'ons dak' wat verschoven in een andere
 richting, doch beter op z'n plaats
 3. de kadasterkaarten
 4. de adresgegevens gekoppeld aan de kadaster-percelen
 5. het stratenplan

 1, 3 en 5 haalt de stad zowiezo bij externe partijen - eurosense,
 ministerie van financien, en tele-atlas of zo - dus daar zullen zowiezo
 wel copyright issues aan zijn.
 2 is op z'n eentje weinig bruikbaar en zal ook wel copyright issues
 hebben.

 Intressanter is mogelijk de adresgegevens, of men bv. een databank heeft
 met huisnummers per wegsegment, of huisnummers met coordinaten, die zou
 kunnen worden gebruikt. Voor zover ik weet zijn die niet beschikbaar in
 de data van het kadaster zelf, ook niet in de kaartbasis die de stad van
 tele-atlas of zo overneemt, dus die moet men er zelf ook nog op een of
 andere manier aan hebben toegevoegd.

 De fotos zijn eer gedetailleerd en de huisnummers staan er mee op.

 Hoe geraken we aan de foto's? :-)

Re: [OSM-talk-be] gebruik gegevens giswest databank ?

[Johan Van de Wauw]

2009/9/11 Kristoff Bonne kristoff.bo...@skypro.be:
 Hallo iedereen,


 Ik heb nog eens verder zitten rondkijken op de website van giswest, en
 daar vond ik o.a. het volgende:
 http://www.giswest.be/artman/publish/cat_index_93.html

 Auteurs van gebruikte kaarten:
 ...
 Teleatlas: stratennetwerk
 Zo te zien heeft de provincie niet zelf het stratenplan opgemaakt maar
 gewoon ingekocht van een commerciele leverancier.

 Eventjes een correctie hierop.

 Ik heb ondertussen die persoon van de gemeente bij ons aan de lijn gehad en
 blijkbaar is de situatie anders.

 Het is niet giswest die kaarten inkoopt bij teleatlas, het is de gemeente
 die deze informatie levert. Wat meer is. De gemeente levert niet alleen
 informatie aan de provincie, maar ook aan de commerciele
 straatplan-providers.

Niet te hard van stapel lopen: de stratenkaarten op giswest, en op de
site van agiv (multinet) zijn effectief aangekocht door de overheid -
voor intern gebruik, en zeker niet in een licentie die in
overeenstemming is met OSM.
Wat het doorgeven van gegevens betreft: wellicht gaat het hier over
andere data (GRB, ...), en niet over de kaartdata.
Als de gemeente data levert aan commerciele straatplanproviders wil
dat niet zeggen dat wij hun gegevens zomaar mogen gebruiken. Je zou
hooguit kunnen vragen dat de gemeente dezelfde informatie doorgeeft
aan OSM met een compatibele licentie.

De stratenkaarten op giswest zijn de multinet data, eigendom van Tele
Atlas. Op de site van agiv vind je daar volgende info over:
Dit product kan besteld worden via GIRAF (http://giraf.agiv.be) en
staat vermeld onder de rubriek transport”. Het is enkel beschikbaar
voor de deelnemers aan GIS-Vlaanderen. Derden kunnen zich rechtstreeks
tot het Tele Atlas richten.

Re: [OSM-talk-be] I have some detailed maps 1/10.000 ...

[Johan Van de Wauw]

Please don't post maps illegaly to this list. And don't use them for
open street mapping. If data on osm is found to be plagiary work, it
can kill the project. NGI is quite severe to protect their data, and
they even send fines if you use small extracts of their maps as an
illustration in publications (eg website) without their permission. I
don't want to know what happens if they find that you share large
parts of the maps on the internet. Really, for you own good and the
project, remove these maps immediately and never send them (or derived
works) on this list/to the osm project.

 Hello,

 I was able to fetch a cdrom with W Vlaanderen, Oost Vlaanderen, and
 ..Vlaams Brabant/BXL region, so french speaking people around bxl, this
 will also interest you...

 I do not really know how to proceed, so that you'll be able to fetch them...

 Maybe one of these large-file servers..

 I suppose there are 2 cdroms for flanders region, and 2 for wallonia...
 As long as the OSMmaps don't become available, we don't want the Schelt
 river to be cleaned up by the Dutch.
