what is openstreetmap?
the openstreetmap one-liner

animation...

WHY?

mapping data is not free

full of mistakes, car-centered

mistakes can't be corrected

can't re-use, or print

economics rules coverage

Not Free (as in Freedom)

Change happens too fast...

Disasters

Olympics

Draw Over Them

OSM + WIKIPEDIA

HOW DOES OSM DIFFER FROM WIKIPEDIA

* contributors comparison, what year is OSM?

In the WorldPerhaps wider potential contributors

Ownership

OpenXMap

debate on tags

* happens on list .. but should happen in app

* existing sources of data, _potentially_ open

* very well funded commercial competitors

COOPERATION OF OSM + WIKIPEDIA

1.2 million geotagged wikipedia articles200K english geotagged articles

mediawiki plugin

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/MediaWiki_plugin

infrastructure sharing test

but that's a lot of new potential contributors

WHAT CAN A GROWING OSM LEARN FROM WIKIPEDIA & WIKIMEDIA FOUNDATION

Our first edit war, Cyprus

Disputes

Disputes

* User uploading derived data

* trademark & domains

Who can speak for OSM?to govts, companies, etc

* MYANMAR, CONFLICT OF INTEREST?

LEVELS OF PARTICIPATION, OpenStreetBugs

GERMANY-- editing primaries into secondaries. wiki codifications?

** Codification & Growth, Committees?

OSM IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD

* developing world, free & elicits contributions, open door

The Developing World (ala OSM)

Betwala Chawl, Mumbai

we feel that communities can harness the power of new geo-spatial imaging and mapping technologies

to strengthen their demands for

secure tenure and housing rightsopen and vibrant public spaces and ecological conservation and sustainable development

in the mega-city.

LOLCows! Moooove!

Military and Security

The Possibilities & Applications

navigation (Bangalore Startups)

urban planning, redevelopment, empowerment (CRIT/PUKAR)

political participation

agriculture (Trivandrum Agriculture Department)

ecology (Biodiversity Survey, Madhav Gadgil)

riverbank erosion in West Bengal (WBUT)

humanitarian response

tracking taxis/safety

data collection for rural development, and models for transitioning to open GIS data collection (professor shah's project)

monitoring rainfall, collecting and disseminating data to forms, calculating land use

unchecked mining operations in the north of West Bengal humanitarian response

WE WILL MAP THE WORLD!
