WYLUG

After the OpenStreetMap talk earlier in the month, we’re holding a micro-mapping session before the WYLUG social this Sunday (24th February 2008).

OpenStreetMap micro-mapping session – 2pm-6pm (ish)

Meet at the Wetherspoons/Becketts Bank pub on Park Row, Leeds at 2pm. We’ll assign areas and equipments once we see how many people turn up. (If you can, bring along a GPS receiver and a laptop – also, don’t forget a notepad/camera/dictaphone to record streetnames and landmarks along the way.)

We’ll try to assign city centre areas to people on foot and those with transport might end up mapping slightly further afield.

After a couple of hours of mapping, we’ll meet back at Becketts Bank around 5pm for a review of how it’s gone and to start downloading the data for editing etc.

Newcomers are very welcome to attend – hopefully there will be a few experienced mappers around to show us what to do.

WYLUG Social – from 7pm (ish)

Informal social meet giving WYLUGers a chance to chat about FOSS, Linux and other generally geeky things over a few drinks at the Scarbrough Hotel, Leeds (across the road from the train station).

Kicks off around 7pm-ish and continues until we all go home (probably around last orders knowing us) 😉

Feel free to drop in for a drink at any time – we’ll have a shiny penguin poster to indicate who we are if you’ve not been down before.
