Geogeeks Perth

Once again, it’s time for Geogeeks!

Please join us for an evening of short talks from local geospatial practitioners. We’ve got a great line up of talks, covering OSM imports, urban analysis with QGIS and deep learning, and enterprise-grade Python processing.

All are welcome!

Speakers:

• Ben Ritter - Importing to OpenStreetMap
• Humphrey Boogaerdt - Urban Development Impact on Bushland: Multi-Criteria Analysis with QGIS
• Warin Chotirosniramit - Unravelling urban transformations with deep learning models
• Nicholas Chai - Using open-source Python libraries to achieve enterprise-grade geoprocessing, without the enterprise price tag

After the talks we’ll hang around to chat over pizza and drinks. The event is free and everyone is welcome, but please register so we can cater well!

Got an interesting geo-related technique, trick, or story about open geospatial you want to share? Email geogeeks.perth@gmail.com so we can organise a talk!

The City of Canning has opened up their footpath’s dataset; to import the data we want to verify their tagging and suitability for Open Street Map. Join us for a free coffee sponsored by OSGeo Oceania and explore Rossmoyne.

Everyone is welcome, no experience necessary (or osmcal.org registration). We’ll start the day at Flames Restaurant, then survey the streets or the nearby foreshore (in groups or all together), before ending up back at the Flames Restaurant for lunch.

Add and update Points of Interest (POIs) on your phone, draw on your phone or a printed map. We’ve got all the materials, come down and learn about OSM (OpenStreetMap).

We’ll do a coffee/snack run, sponsored by OSGeo Oceania!

RSVP on osmcal.org/event/3624, message Ben with any questions, and join the Geogeeks Slack to keep in touch.
