SOSM AGM 18th April 2015 in Biel-Bienne / SOSM GV am 18. April 2015 in Biel-Bienne

by Simon Poole

Dear SOSM and and community members The 2015 annual general meeting will take place, as previously announced, on Saturday the 18th April in Biel-Bienne (actually the location is in Nidau), at 11:00. The venue will be the Lago Lodge, which is roughly 700m from the Biel main station: http://www.lagolodge.ch/ As always we will have the short formal part before lunch and after lunch go out and map a bit. Naturally all interested parties are welcome to the lunch and mapping party. It would be helpful if however both the SOSM members and others would indicate if they intend to come by mail to info(a)sosm.ch , we have limited space and need to inform the venue roughly how many participants we are expecting. A further note: the board is actively looking for more members to step up and help with board matters, particularly members from the French and Italian speaking regions of Switzerland. The board meets per voice conference once per month (mumble) and most of the time the work load is light. If you want to help spreading the word on OSM, please contact me directly. The formal agenda for the AGM will be published early April. Looking forward to meeting you in Biel. Simon -- Liebe SOSM und Community Mitglieder Die jährliche Generalversammlung der SOSM wird 2015, wie schon angekündigt in Biel-Bienne stattfinden, genau gesagt eigentlich in Nidau, um 11:00. Der Veranstaltungsort ist die Lago Lodge, ungefähr 700m vom Bahnhof Biel entfernt: http://www.lagolodge.ch/ Wie immer werden wir nach dem kurzen formellen Teil, zu Mittag essen und dann etwas Mappen gehen. Natürlich sind alle Interessierten zum Mittagessen und Mapping-Party willkommen. Es wäre allerdings hilfreich wenn alle Teilnehmer uns kurz mitteilen können ob sie beabsichtigen teilzunehmen, es hat beschränkt Platz und wir sollten den Betreiber der Lago Lodge mindestens grob mitteilen wie viele Leute anwesend werden. Noch ein Hinweis: der Vorstand sucht aktiv weitere Mitglieder die im Vorstand mithelfen, speziell solche aus der Französisch und Italienisch sprechenden Schweiz. Der Vorstand trifft sich einmal pro Monat elektronisch (mumble) und meistens ist die Arbeitsbelastung sehr klein. Wenn du mithelfen willst OSM bekannter zu machen, melde dich bitte direkt bei mir. Die offizielle Agenda für die GV wird Anfangs April verfügbar sein. Ich freue mich euch in Biel zu treffen. Simon

Location for SOSM AGM 18th April 2015

by Simon Poole

Dear SOSM Members We've fixed a date for this years annual general meeting, Saturday April the 18th. In discussion the board felt that it would be nice to hold a SOSM event once in the Ticino. However given that this substantially increases the travel time, we would probably want to make this a two day event (with the AGM on the Saturday). Alternatively we would likely do a conventional AGM plus mapping party in Bienne/Biel. Before we cast this in stone, could we get some feedback from the membership? Particularly if you would attend an event in Ticino. Happy mapping! Simon

Pre-Test Umfrage Motivation OSM User

by Simon Poole

[The subject matter is only of interest for German speakers as of now] Liebe Mitglieder, der SOSM Vorstand wurde angefragt ob er ein Projekt an der Goethe-Universität Frankfurt unterstützen würde bei dem es um eine Umfrage zur Motivation von OSM-User geht. Essentiell soll die Umfrage an einer kleinen Gruppe zuerst getestet werden, bevor eine grössere Gruppe angegangen wird. Da es auch im Interesse des ganzen OSM Projektes ist den Antrieb unserer Mapper besser zu verstehen, haben wir zugesagt die Umfrage an unsere Mitglieder als Testgruppe weiterzuleiten. Natürlich ist die Teilnahme völlig freiwillig. Die Umfrage findet sich unter http://www.osm2015.geomedienlabor.de/ Danke an alle die mitmachen. Simon Poole

OpenStreetMap is on the "Open Knowledge Conference 2013" website

by Oleksiy Muzalyev

Hello, The OSM map window is on the "Open Knowledge Conference 2013" website: http://okcon.org/travel-and-accommodation/ The 2013 Open Knowledge Conference (OKCon) will take place in Geneva, Switzerland on 17th-18th September. The 2013 Open Knowledge Conference (OKCon) is jointly organized by the Open Knowledge Foundation, Open Knowledge Foundation Switzerland with the support of the Swiss Federal Government, and with Lift Events as an organizing partner. We have conducted already two on-the-ground surveys of the area around the CICG building (fr. Centre International de Conférence de Genève), which is close to numerous United Nations agencies. This area of Geneva is our priority now. We plan to make this whole district completely addressable vie verification surveys during summer months before the conference. The link to the conference is placed already at the Event Calendar at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/. I would suggest to place a similar link or even a small article at the Swiss OpenStreetMap Association website http://sosm.ch/ and maybe some other OSM resources. brgds Oleksiy http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Alex-7
