Andy Allan – Crystallising Anarchy (Innovative Uses of OpenStreetMap Data) from Christopher Osborne on Vimeo.
This September, I had the pleasure of chairing the inaugral geoweb stream at the AGI GeoCommunity 09 Conference. Over the next few months I will be releasing videos of the best talks here for all to see. First up, is the talented Tom Taylor, who amongst other things is working on Newspaper Club – a service to help people make their own newspapers. I recently had the luck of contributing a little bit (a map) to the incredibly useful Postcode Paper, made as a demo for the recent data.gov.uk experiments.
