4/ Routing was also the focus in our next talk

Patrick Niklaus, of Kale AI https://kale.ai shared the work they are doing to use #OpenStreetMap data to optimize mixed fleet delivery operations, particularly cycle delivery.

There's some totally reasonable discussion in OSM about what counts as "lit". One way around this is to add more data to the map in the form of individual lighting elements. This lets folks make a better informed decision about what to expect for illumination in a given area.

I just posted a @MapRoulette challenge for "Pitches marked as lit= but with no lights nearby". Take a look and add some detail!

And, of course, there's a map for that!

Eres Colombiano o vives en #Colombia y participas en la comunidad #OpenStreetMap allí? Nos interesa tu opinión sobre si la Asociación de Cartografía Colaborativa de Colombia (AC3) es adecuada para convertirse en una sede oficial de la OSM Foundation. Si resulta positiva, la AC3 se convertiría en la segunda sede oficial latinoamericana* después de Argentina.

If you’re Colombian or in #Colombia 🇨🇴 and part of the #OpenStreetMap community there, we would really appreciate if you can give your opinion on whether Asociación de Cartografía Colaborativa de Colombia (AC3) is fit to become an official local chapter of the OSM Foundation. If successful, AC3 will become the second Latin American chapter after Argentina.

Vota para que AC3 sea el capítulo oficial de #OpenStreetMap en Colombia.

"I know we [people who are not the majority] are out there, but how do I find them. How do I find people like me, and people not like me, and have them speak?"

Gala, the #geomob Edinburgh organiser talking about #OpenStreetMap diversity at @sotmeu and how the lack of diversity affects what has been mapped. #sotmeu25

"Percent High Comfort Bikeshed" may be harder to package for #QGIS because it involves running a custom #valhalla server currently-- building a graph to generate the bike isochrones (travel-time area) using only the high-comfort facilities.

If there's a way to query Valhalla such that only a subset of the network is considered for routing, then I could run it against public servers.

Solved!
Is there a way to take a gpx with lots of separate, small tracks in it, and convert those tracks into separate POIs instead?

I've done a search in Overpass Turbo for farmyards. They are marked in OSM as areas, so if I search for nodes I get 0 results. I have to search for ways, but they get exported as tracks. And I just want a gpx with them as POIs.

Can I convert this, so I go from a gpx with lots of lines to just one point pr separate track?

Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web, was asked during a talk this year about his top three websites. He named #OpenStreetMap (along with #Wikipedia and GitHub). This wasn't his first public mention of OSM: in a 2009 TED Talk, he showed how easy it is to edit the map and said that OSM "𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘣𝘪𝘵, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘵 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘤𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳𝘴". He has been an OSM user since 2008 and remains active, with his latest edit this year.

Can anyone recommend a user guide for #OpenStreetMap or maybe a migration guide from Google Maps?

Everything I can find is either for contributors or data scientists, & I just want to use it on my phone for navigating in my area & places I visit. To be honest, parts of it aren't hugely intuitive which would be fine if I could find a decent guide but I'm struggling.
