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!

  • Roger Merritt - The 3m Accuracy issue transforming to and from GDA2020
  • Jerome Lefebvre - Merging weather data with Geospatial data using DuckDB
  • You?!? - Got an interesting geo-related technique, trick, or story that you think we whould know about? Email geogeeks.perth@gmail.com so we can organise a talk!

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!
