Geogeeks Perth


Geogeeks is a Perth meetup group having fun with open geospatial, open source GIS, and OpenStreetMap.

We're running a series of meetups and events to bring the Perth community together, and shine a light on what's happening in open geospatial. Think QGIS, PostGIS, OpenStreetMap, geospatial Python, and much more.

Upcoming events include guest speakers, mapathons, and technical workshops. Everyone welcome!

Geogeeks Meetup: September hack night

Wednesday, 17 September 2025 at 5:30PM (to 8:00PM)

Riff (Spacecubed), in 'The Vault', 45 St Georges Tce, Perth [map]

The Vault is located at the rear of Spacecubed, behind the desks.

Join us for another casual after-work meetup to chat and tinker on your geo-projects! It’s been a while, so bring your news and ideas, new and old! All skill levels and areas of interest are welcome.

Come to share skills, solve problems, gather inspiration, and stay connected. There’ll be people with interests in OpenStreetMap, all things QGIS, data collection and processing, and many other aspects of geospatial.

Pizza and drinks are provided by OSGeo Oceania.

This event is hosted by Geogeeks Perth (find us at Geogeeks Slack or email), and supported by OSGeo Oceania’s grant program and Spacecubed.

Social Mapping Sunday: South Perth Foreshore

Sunday, 21 September 2025 at 10:00AM (to 1:00PM)

Atomic, 21 Mends St, South Perth [map]

We are taking to the foreshore to map some of the newer features in South Perth.

Meet us for a free coffee (paid for by our sponsor, OSGeo Oceania) and a chat at Atomic cafe. We’ll decide on some routes, then walk around surveying features in small groups, before meeting back for lunch nearby. And probably catch the ferry back to the city after all that.

Everyone is welcome; no mapping experience is necessary. Just bring a phone or tablet or a map to draw on. You will learn about OpenStreetMap (OSM) and how to survey points of interest (POIs) and more! Browse our recommended editors on our getting started page, if you want to.

Join the Geogeeks Slack to keep in touch or message Ben with any questions.
