That's a wrap. Huge thanks to Neil for the brilliant talk, and for everyone that turned up. Neils slides will be linked to from our meetup page and also in the Bristol Open Data Meetup page #BristolOpenData
Gang - the never ending Open Data Camp tour is looking to come to London later this year and we* are on the look out for a good (ideally free, but at least low budget) venue.
Could you help?
* I am low-key helping the team of legends put the camps on now.
Questions from the floor now, lots of great questions as well as interesting knowledge and experience being shared. For example, how does #OpenStreetMap deal with sudden changes in road layout? #BristolOpenData
#OpenStreetMap has no ontology - this makes it maybe less immediately straightforward to interpret, but creates a very low barrier to entry for those who wish to add things. #BristolOpenData
Hearing from Neil about what we need to get going on #OpenStreetMap. 1) Switch off your computer and go for a walk! 2) You need your brain, a phone, and maybe some wellies :) #BristolOpenData
Just hearing about the made up 'trap streets' that the A to Z added to their maps, that are streets that don't exist - a way for them to know if people are copying their maps without permission! 🤯 #BristolOpenData
What is #OpenStreetMap ? It's not JUST a map. Plus we're hearing about OpenStreetMap the UK CIC, and the benefits of local knowledge in mapping #BristolOpenData
