Living with Dragons

You know I love “State of the Map” (SotM), the conference for all things OpenStreetMap, so it was absolutely brilliant to lead bringing a Europe version to my city of Dundee.

Creating a welcoming, safe, and inclusive conference is really important.

State of the Map Europe 2025 (SotM Eu 2025) took place in November in Dundee.

The international State of the Map conference often has a poster competition, and it’s one of my favourite parts of the events.

Are OpenStreetMap events & meetups to far away from you?

Following from my initial work improving healthcare data in #OpenStreetMap, I planned a short walk to pass some locations that needed on-the-ground confirmation.

Removing technical, legal and financial barriers for geospatial data is what #OpenStreetMap does and it makes many new applications and businesses possible… including location-focused games!

This project focus is on healthcare for 2025 Q2.

Continuing my attempts to map all of Dundee in detail, I switch to the other side of Perth Road.
