Hi Julien, Hi list,
I'd to support this project!
I think many communes are also looking for an up-to-date list of the shops and
other POI in their territory, for instance for their website or other. So OSM
could definitely be the basis for a solution they are looking for. In that
respect, I'm planning to contact a local developpement agency (ADL
Habay-Tintigny, Luxembourg, BE) soon about the benefit of using OSM for them. I
can let you know if they are interested...
Cheers,
Julien Minet

Hi,
I would like to talk to you about two things: our brand new company
"Champs Libres" and a proposal we do to OSM contributors.
Marc Ducobu and I started slowly our company mid-2013. We are a
cooperative, with a social purpose. What's our purpose ? Support Free
Software ! We provide service and help for association, entreprise, and
public autorities around free software. Until now, we are mainly
proposing open source developments.
We have a speciality: software who use/need geographical information. We
use OpenStreetMap for our projects.
More info here : http://www.champs-libres.coop.
We are thinking about a project to make speak about us, but also about
OpenStreetMap : we are planning to propose municipalities to organize a
cartoparty and offer them a PDF map of their territory (with osm data).
We will have a stand at the "salon des mandataires" on February 13 & 14
(http://www.mandataires.be/) to convince local councils to offer help
for a cartoparty. If they do so, we will, in the following month of the
cartoparty, offer them a mapnik style to produce PDF with OSM data,
adapted to their municipality and for printing (printing screen map does
not render so well).
Our goal: promote OSM and let know the project's advantage for
municipality, and, also, offer an immediate follow-up to a cartoparty.
So,
- are you interested in giving help to a cartoparty in Wallonia, during
a week-end in April / May / June / July ?
- do you have some ideas, positive or negative, about our project ?
Champs Libres will be very happy to help the community. In August 2013,
I was planning about offering a WMS [1] with aerial images on Brussels
Regio (10cm resolution, something like that, but the images are in
MrSid, you must compile GDAL with the MrSid SDK and uncompressed it to
have a geotiff usable in JOSM, not very easy for beginners). I delayed
this project because... life... and nobody recall me. But if you do
think this may be useful, we now have the infrastructure for doing this
pretty good.
Cheers,
Julien Fastr?
