Hello, everyone!

On Thursday, October 29th, 2020, from 7:00 p.m., a virtual *OpenStreetMap meet-up will take place! The Viennese hackerspace Metalab (https://metalab.at/) has allowed us to use their Jitsi server for an online meet-up.

The URL for joining is: https://meet.metalab.at/OSMStammtischWien

The website of the Stammtisch is still: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Wien/Stammtisch https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Wien/Stammtisch

The videos of the OSGeo Days lectures at AGIT 2020, kindly provided by the AGIT organization, are now online on YouTube and the TIB AV-Portal!

The lectures were grouped into three blocks, with each block being an entire video.

Block 1 ( Link to video on TIB AV: https://av.tib.eu/media/49229 ) contains:

• Arnulf Christl (Metaspatial, Germany): The mind is willing, but habit is tenacious: On the difficulties of introducing agile development methods and open source in public administration at the state and federal level
• Jürgen Hahn (GISolutions e.U.): VectorTiles and their display on the web generated from PostGIS using Tegola or mbtiles using tileserver-gl
• Jörg Thomsen (WhereGroup GmbH): MapServer status report
• Markus Mayr (OSGeo / OpenStreetMap): Geo-Services with PostGIS, GeoServer and pREST
• Questions

Block 2 ( Link to video on TIB AV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Njrwasa5YFo ) contains:

Since the planned FOSSGIS & OSM Community Meeting at the Linuxhotel Essen will not take place due to the current situation, the German FOSSGIS Association invites you to a virtual meeting on September 27, 2020 starting at 1:30 p.m.. A joint virtual dinner is planned to start at 7:00 p.m. :-)

The original announcement can be found at https://lists.fossgis.de/pipermail/fossgis-talk-liste/2020-September/010789.html

If the journey has been too far up to now, this is a great opportunity to participate from afar! Prior registration at https://www.fossgis.de/wiki/FOSSGIS_OSM_Communitytreffen_2020_Nummer_14 is requested for capacity estimation purposes!

We have found a great replacement for the Vienna OSM meetups: We are going hiking!

On Sunday, August 23, 2020

starting point is the beginning of the city hiking trail 5 (Bisamberg route, https://www.wien.gv.at/umwelt/wald/freizeit/wandern/wege/wanderweg5.html) in Stammersdorf (terminal stop of the 31 tram line), where we will set off at 1:00 p.m. to follow the city hiking trail of the same name!

So it’s better to come a little earlier so that we can gather. I will make sure that the group is recognizable as the OSM hiking group.

Due to the current pandemic, AGIT 2020 cannot be held locally. The organizers will hold it virtually instead!

OSGeo/FOSSGIS/OpenStreetMap have also received a sponsored virtual exhibition stand for the virtual conference! (Thank you, AGIT !)

Since it is hardly possible to have a virtual exhibition stand attended by volunteers for 5 days via video link (who have to go to work during the weekdays), we have come up with the following idea:
