Colleagues
Interested in Open Data? Tired of Google Maps? Then our workshop on Open
Mapping is for you! During the day we'll introduce you to map-making
with free software and open data.
Featuring:
- Editing and re-using OpenStreetmap
- Getting started with the PostGIS geographic database
- Interactive maps on the web with OpenLayers
- Map styling tools
As a sample dataset we'll be working with some data on common good land
in Glasgow and Edinburgh. But you're encouraged to bring along your own
data, problems and plans.
A free lunch and refreshments will be provided.
The event is being organised by DevCSI and Edina (Geospatial Engagement
Community and Outreach - GECO)
Registration from 9am, start at 10am, finishes at 5pm.
