As announced in the previous blog post, the OSM.AT association will be represented at the Maker Faire Vienna 2019 with a stand.
The stand was already set up on the Friday before the Maker Faire.
Final touches to the stand
We were given a smaller stand than we are used to at other trade fairs, but with a few adjustments we were able to set up most of the trade fair material. We worked late into the night to get everything ready for the next day.
OpenStreetMap will be represented at this year’s Maker Faire in Vienna from 04.05.2019 - 05.05.2019!
Some hard-working members of the association have come together to man an exhibition stand and give an overview of OpenStreetMap.
The exhibitor entry can be found here.
The Linuxwochen Vienna will take place at the FH Technikum Wien from 02/05/2019 to 04/05/2019! https://www.linuxwochen.at/ The CallForPapers for the submission of your own contributions has been running for a few days now.
There are rumours that there will be a focus track on open geodata and GIS.
This Thursday, 21 March 2019, Doctors Without Borders is hosting a mapathon in Vienna: https://www.aerzte-ohne-grenzen.at/event/mapathon

On Friday, 6 September 2019, an exciting event will take place: PgDay Austria, a mini-conference all about the popular relational open-source database PostgreSQL.
This is particularly interesting because it is precisely this database that is used for the central storage of the primary OpenStreetMap database.
Papers can still be submitted at https://pgday.at/programm/ until 01/04/2019. The conference is organised by the PostgreSQL consulting company CyberTec (www.cybertec-postgresql.com).
