#OpenStreetMap #sotmeu23

Does #OpenStreetMap need to put limits on the edits new mappers can do? Roland Olbricht - just re-elected to the OSMF board - talked about it at State of the Map Europe. Rewatch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeSYgo07H1E
#sotmeu23

A talk about an open source street level imagery project, using the principles of federation? No wonder @cquest 's talk about Panoramax won the pop-poll of best talk during #sotmeu23 #OpenStreetMap
