AGIT 2019 - Day 2
Like yesterday, the weather was fantastically sunny again. I set off for the University of Salzburg shortly before 8 o’clock.

AGIT 2019 - Day 1 & OSGeo Day

OSM stand before the crowds of visitors
After yesterday’s preparation day, we didn’t have much work to do in the morning to get the stand ready for visitors.

Come to the OSM stand, we have brought a great map with us.
This year, Markus came up with something special that was very well received by the visitors:


By the end of the day, almost all 40 cockies had been eaten.

AGIT 2019 – Travel and stand build-up
This year, Markus and I are once again representing the OpenStreetMap Association Austria at AGIT. As last year, we will try to capture our impressions for you in the form of blog entries over the next few days.
Today began with packing up the trade fair materials in the morning, then loading them into the car, driving to Salzburg and finally setting up the stand.
Unfortunately, our departure was delayed by about two hours due to a medical incident, but we were finally able to make the journey together. Despite a small handicap, Markus was able to actively support me during the construction.

Maker Faire Vienna 2019 - Day 2

OSM stand on day 2 – before the crowds of visitors
On day 2 of the Maker Faire Vienna 2019, the stream of visitors did not abate. Numerous visitors came again who wanted to find out more about OpenstreetMap.
Many of them came into contact with the map for the first time, while others already use it regularly in their private or professional lives. Another group of people actively contributes to the map, were happy to see us and thanked us for the map and the opportunities it has given them. Since we don’t maintain the map, we are happy to pass on our thanks to the OSM community! One of the key messages of our information was that OSM is a community project and only works through the work of each individual.
