The [new Wochennotiz] (http://blog.openstreetmap.de/blog/2017/06/wochennotiz-nr-358/) from our German colleagues with the most important news and curiosities from the OpenStreetMap universe has been published.

It can be accessed here: http://blog.openstreetmap.de/blog/2017/06/wochennotiz-nr-358/.

The annual trade fair and conference for applied geoinformation (AGIT) will take place again this year from 4th to 6th July 2017. This largest Austrian conference for geoinformation will once again include a separate area for open source projects.

OpenStreetMap Austria will try to organise a stand again this year with the help of the German FOSSGIS association, where any OSM mapper can provide information about OpenStreetMap or present their OSM-relevant project.

The new OSM Weekly Notes with the number 357 from our German colleagues is here.

At http://blog.openstreetmap.de/blog/2017/05/wochennotiz-nr-357 you will find a compilation of the latest information from the OpenStreetMap universe from the last week.

From 04.05.2017 to 06.05.2017, Linuxwochen was held in Vienna again this year. On Friday, 5 May, OpenStreetMap was also represented with a stand. Although there were no special OpenStreetMap lectures, this did not mean that there was no interest in OpenStreetMap.

The stand was well attended throughout and the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE), which was also present, took a few packs of OpenStreetMap flyers with them so that they could distribute them themselves if needed. Furthermore, two of the OSM mugs were sold.

Thomas Konrad has published his plugin ‘Austrian Address Helper’ for the Java OpenStreetMap Editor (JOSM). This allows address data from the database of the Federal Office of Metrology and Surveying to be transferred to OpenStreetMap at the click of a mouse.
