    State of the Map 2024 will take place from 6 to 8 September 2024 in Nairobi, Kenya. We have created an exciting programme with you—the OpenStreetMap community. For the duration of the conference, we have rooms set aside for breakout sessions that can be booked by groups of mutual interest, or used without prior planning.

    + + +

    The programme below is still in a preliminary state: talks might still be shifted around by the programme committee and some remaining talks as well as the details of the academic track will be added soon.

    + + + + + +{% include schedule/_general.html %} + +

    Self organized sessions

    +

    + Besides the main programme of SotM we offer space for self-organized sessions for discussions about topics that well placed in smaller rounds. The only requirement that we have to your topic is that it has to be related to OpenStreetMap. For on-site self-organized sessions, we will set up a white board at the conference venue to reserve a time slot and room. The only requirements we have is that the participants have a conference ticket which grants them access to the conference platform that we use and that they abide to the conference's Code of Conduct. +

    + +In the past, iD had to and has overcome several challenging hurdles to become what it is today: A quite unique map editor that is the point of entry of most contributors of OpenStreetMap into the world of mapping. + +Today, iD is facing of a number of signifiant challenges to make it even more usable to a wide user base, and will continue to do so into the foreseeable future especially in regards to make it fit for the mapping topics of the future. For example, the editor needs to be able to cope with the growing amount and richness of OSM’s map data as well as as the increasingly important task of keeping the map up to date. + +The design of iD’s current user interface is substantially based on OSM’s data model. This can be seen for example in the workflow of creating a new map feature: It starts out with a blank “dummy” map geometry which – in a second step – has to be converted into a map feature by choosing a preset. While this is true to the way OSM represents this information in the data (i.e. in the form of nodes, ways and relations which are enriched with tags), this is for most simple use cases an unnecessary complication. + +Instead of primarily catering to the needs and requirements arising from the underlying data structures, iD’s usability should be instead built around the needs of of the different groups of mappers. And as these vary quite significantly depending on the interests and/or experience of the individual mappers, a promising approach to bring all of these together is to evolve iD’s user interface into an adaptive mapping experience with the goal to make vital mapping workflows intuitive, easy, fast and delightful. + +This transformation will definitely not be a small endeavor and is far from finally defined: in fact this should only be a start of a larger discussion. Let us together flesh out the details of this project. + diff --git a/sessions/3ZU3ZR.md b/sessions/3ZU3ZR.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..7369ca7 --- /dev/null +++ b/sessions/3ZU3ZR.md @@ -0,0 +1,27 @@ +--- +layout: session +title: "Open mapping through tropical forest biodiversity conservation" +code: "3ZU3ZR" +speaker_names: ['Luis Sebastian Bravo Chacon'] +affiliations: None +room: "Auditorium 2" +length: "20" +time: "Saturday, 15:30" +time_iso: "2024-09-07T12:30:00Z" +resources: [] +recording: False +--- + +The botanical collection Arboretum and Palmetum Leon Morales Soto houses 412 species from 64 botanical families, totaling 4892 individuals. The mapping carried out by the SAGEMA chapter of YouthMappers allowed sharing valuable information about Colombian flora with the university community, facilitating its conservation and recognition through the integration of collection data into OSM. The project aims to promote the conservation of threatened tropical ecosystems through open mapping. It involved the participation of 12 students and a training strategy through open workshops to replicate the project in other Latin American regions. + +
    + +The Universidad Nacional de Colombia is one of the most important ecological nuclei and connection points in Medellín and the Aburrá Valley. In its approximately 37 hectares, the university harbors a high diversity of fauna, especially birds, insects, small mammals, and reptiles, which find shelter, food, nesting areas, and a passage point in their biological corridor in the tree cover. Therefore, the conservation of this space is of special importance to the city. The collection stands out for housing various species representative of different Colombian tropical ecosystems, such as the dry forests of the Cauca and Magdalena canyons, the humid forests of Chocó, and the flooded forests of the Amazon, among others, offering students and visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves in the biodiversity of the extraordinary Colombian tropical forests and ensuring the maintenance of native species. +The "Open Data, Vibrant Ecosystems" project aims to bring the university community closer to the care and appreciation of the flora and fauna present on the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Medellín campus, through the recognition and appropriation of the living collection Arboretum and Palmetum Leon Morales Soto. It is based on open and collaborative mapping to encourage students to interact with the different species of palms, trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants that the collection houses, and aims to go beyond visualization and consultation by inviting them to be active participants in the collection's tree inventory data collection, creation, use, and download through open data and the OpenStreetMap platform. +As a result of the first phase of mapping the project, the collection's inventory was imported into OpenStreetMap, adding around 3000 new data points to the map. The project is developed in 3 phases: Training, Data validation in office and field, Data import to OSM. For the first phase, a work route was established for data import. First, information gaps and technical knowledge needed for the import were identified. Based on this analysis, collaboration was sought with volunteers from the OSM Colombia and OSM Latin America communities who had experience in tree mapping in OSM. +A schedule of five training sessions was established for project members to acquire the knowledge and technical skills necessary for mapping the collection. As part of the project's dissemination and replicability strategy, it was decided to open the talks to the general public and especially invite the OSM Colombia and YouthMappers Latin America community to the training cycle. Five (5) training sessions were held in February and March 2024. The attendance range per talk was between 14 and 30 people, including students, educators, researchers, and institutions from 5 countries in Latin America (Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, Peru, Nicaragua, Chile). +The training process covered topics such as data cleaning, mapping project documentation strategies, data import models with QGIS, urban trees and green areas in the OSM ecosystem, and open data licensing. To ensure the project's replicability, a YouTube channel was created with recordings of all the training sessions. A wiki was created documenting the data cleaning process, selected tags, the validation phase, and the import model. +For fieldwork preparation, the QGIS program and the QField application were used. Through QGIS, tree data obtained from the university's Environmental Management System were imported, and then each campus of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia - Medellín Campus was divided into quadrants/polygons, with the aim that each member verified the tree data/points in the assigned quadrant. Field data verification was done through the QField application. The qfiel form identifies the mapper with their OSM username, allows them to add new individuals, map dead trees, and delete absent individuals. Information on species, growth habit, condition, and a photo was collected during the recognition. +Python code was used to complement the information collected in the field, using the GBIF open repository API to add information about the botanical family for each of the mapped species. +After socializing the import in the OSM Colombia community, the data import was carried out by quadrants under the user of each of the project participants, using an import model with QGIS that allows the translation of data into the tags used by the platform. + diff --git a/sessions/7FDPZZ.md b/sessions/7FDPZZ.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..b1ebe88 --- /dev/null +++ b/sessions/7FDPZZ.md @@ -0,0 +1,22 @@ +--- +layout: session +title: "Tuning In to Local Needs: How OpenStreetMap Enhances USAID's Development Programming" +code: "7FDPZZ" +speaker_names: ['Rory Nealon'] +affiliations: None +room: "Auditorium 2" +length: "20" +time: "Friday, 11:30" +time_iso: "2024-09-06T08:30:00Z" +resources: [] +recording: False +--- + +This talk will introduce the USAID/GeoCenter’s Mapping for Resilience initiative and update the OpenStreetMap community on its objectives to connect open-geospatial data with USAID programming.

A street is a way. A building is a single closed way. +But the more we get into the details of mapping, the more this one-to-one principle gets us into trouble. Streets have many lanes. Buildings have entrances, 3D shapes and POIs inside. And let's not even start talking about the complexity of a major railway station. + +For some of these complex constructs we have developed mapping schemas - using special tagging, relations or relying on spatial properties. But more often than not, then question of relationship between OSM object is sidestepped. The situation is more dire on the side of the processing tools. Most generic tools still look at every OSM object as an isolated feature. The tools that do process complex objects often do so only for a very specific type like 3D buildings or turning restrictions. + +This talk will take a systematic look at the different ways how complex objects are being mapped in OSM.

If you have not heard of these before don’t worry, but be excited how they might transform your geospatial analysis workflows and could provide new insights about mapping in OSM. + +In this workshop we will provide a sneak preview about our new cloud hosted ohsome full history contributions data. This dataset brings you something we have wanted for a long time: a single dataset which contains information about OSM objects and the related changeset metadata such as OSM editing software used, changeset comments or hashtags. As the datasets contains OSM’s full history (and not only the latest snaphshot) it’s perfectly suited to understand the dynamics in OSM. Based on this dataset we will show how you can run global scale data analyses for various (research) questions and how you can visualize the results. + +We want to explore how we could combine data from OSM with other data sources. Here we want to first start with looking at the additional value of OSM Changeset metadata. We will look into the temporal evolution of OSM (what changes in OSM over time?) and what these changes can tell us about the real world. For instance, this analysis can highlight regions with a very high mapping activity for specific editors such as [StreetComplete](https://streetcomplete.app/). We want to take a closer look at the types of changes that happen in OSM. This can tell us more about the community itself and could reveal regional preferences in mapping style. The main advantage of using cloud-hosted contributions files over simply using the ohsome API is that you can actually zoom in your analysis down to the individual OSM object. + +We will touch the topic of data quality (How good is OSM?) and want to compare the coverage of OSM building and road data with the coverage of other datasets from [Microsoft](https://github.com/microsoft/GlobalMLBuildingFootprints), [Google](https://sites.research.google/open-buildings/) and [other sources](https://source.coop/). This analysis can tell us something about the completeness of OSM, but also about the accuracy of those machine-learning derived datasets. As the discussion about the integration of AI datasets in OSM can be sometimes heated, we hope that this analysis will provide some common ground which regions are most likely to be affected (positively or negatively) by AI-assisted mapping. + +Before diving deeper into these analysis questions we will provide a short introduction to GeoParquet files and they can be analyzed with DuckDB. Next, we want to work on 3-4 Jupyter Notebook hands-on examples we have prepared for you. For these it would be good if participants can install QGIS in advance of the workshop. The workshop material will be made available via GitHub and the participants can use either a local python environment or a cloud hosted service such as Colab or similar tools. + +We hope that this workshop can start a discussion about how we can accelerate OSM data analysis without the need to run your own computing cluster.

Unfortunately, many of the world’s cities still lack basic information on their own transport systems, leading to decisions measured against anecdotes rather than data. Using new tools for data processing and display, OpenStreetMap can provide the information that governments need to make better decisions. In this panel we will share recent success stories of cities adopting OSM-based metrics to plan better transport. We will reveal new tools that governments, mappers, and advocates can use. And we will discuss the challenges that still remain and the roles the OSM community can play in overcoming them. + +
    + +Transport is among the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions, and transport emissions are growing especially quickly in the Global South. Experts agree that vehicle electrification will not be sufficient to avoid climate catastrophe: we also need to redesign cities to make it easy for people to walk, bicycle, or ride public transport instead of driving. OpenStreetMap can help. + +OpenStreetMap can empower cities to make planning decisions based on real data, and to set more meaningful goals for progress. OSM has empowered cities like Fortaleza and Recife, Brazil, to plan expansions of their bicycle lane networks that serve the greatest number of potential cyclists. OSM has helped cities as distant as Seattle, USA; Jakarta, Indonesia; and Pimpri-Chinchwad, India, to optimize their public transport networks and make it easier for everyone to ride the bus. And this is only the beginning. + +New tools are proliferating, such as ITDP’s Atlas of Sustainable City Transport and Trufi’s GTFS-Builder. These tools make it much easier to turn OSM data into useful indicators that can guide city policy. In the case of Trufi’s work, it does so by converting OSM data into industry-standard formats that can be used for trip planning or network analysis, As tagging evolves, OpenStreetMap is emerging as a solid foundation for creating multimodal route planning networks, thanks to its comprehensive information for generating integral maps. Furthermore, Trufi has developed a specific course on mapping public transportation routes, with the objective of training the OpenStreetMap community to contribute effectively to this particular aspect within the platform. + +ITDP’s Atlas, on the other hand, uses OSM as well as other open sources to present measurements of meaningful indicators that city governments can use to set goals or compare themselves to nearby jurisdictions. + +Some challenges, however, remain. It can be difficult to explain the virtues of OSM to governments who have never used it before. The tagging schema does not include certain nuances that are important for bicycle infrastructure planners (although a current proposal remedies many issues). And, looking more broadly into the future, there are many promising opportunities for the OSM community to push into new frontiers of data on topics like road usage, footpath quality, and parking. In order to prevent catastrophic climate change, we need to change the way people move around cities. In order to do that, we need maps. + diff --git a/sessions/MJKAC8.md b/sessions/MJKAC8.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..62454f5 --- /dev/null +++ b/sessions/MJKAC8.md @@ -0,0 +1,24 @@ +--- +layout: session +title: "Download OSM data translated into your language using free software components and standard protocols" +code: "MJKAC8" +speaker_names: ['Séverin Ménard'] +affiliations: None +room: "Auditorium 1" +length: "20" +time: "Saturday, 14:30" +time_iso: "2024-09-07T11:30:00Z" +resources: [] +recording: False +--- + +This presentation will introduce a download service of OpenStreetMap GIS layers in English, but also in French for French-speaking areas.

    + +With over ten years of history and over 120,000 users, openrouteservice has established itself as a cornerstone in the area of open-source and OSM-based routing engines. Driven by an increasing availability of road network data through the OpenStreetMap project, openrouteservice could steadily grow and evolve and find its unique spot as a good addition among other routing engines such as OSRM and Valhalla. The current portfolio of freely available services now ranges from standard routing, isochrones and vehicle optimization to custom routing algorithms designed especially for use cases such as relief operations in flooded or earthquake shaken areas. + +Openrouteservice was created as part of a research project at the University of Heidelberg in 2013 and has since been steadily developed, maintained, and supported. In 2017, we launched our public and complimentary API, offering fair quotas for a diverse range of our mobility tools, including routing, isochrones, matrix, vehicle optimization, geocoding, and numerous other features. This was so well received that openrouteservice partnered up with the German “Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy” in 2018 to provide routing services to the German Federal Government. + +In early 2019 the project was transferred to the Heidelberg Institute for Geoinformation Technology (HeiGIT), a non-profit and non-governmental research organization associated with the University of Heidelberg. The combination of non-profit, non-governmental, research, and free and open-source software allows us to make decisions based on social, ethical and environmental reasons without being influenced by commercial interests. The resulting stability and continued support already motivated over 600 other prominent non-profit organizations to install and use openrouteservice and build on top of our service APIs to run their missions. These missions encompass scenarios such as disaster relief efforts, supply chain management, last-mile logistics for health items, accessibility analysis to ensure equal access to health facilities, or planning the support areas for fire brigades. + +With our latest release, version 8, we would like to take this opportunity to provide the OSM community, which we so heavily build on, with an insight into nearly a decade of OSM-driven open-source software development and delivery.
