A quick introduction to OSGeoLive and How to reuse OpenStreetMap
2023-11-30 , Room 3
Language: English

We create data on OpenStreetMap regularly but often very few re-use the data or know about ways to reuse it. This workshop will focus on how to get/re-use OpenStreetMap in an open source Desktop or Server GIS, etc.

OSGeoLive is a self-contained bootable DVD, USB thumb drive or Virtual Machine based on Lubuntu, that allows you to try a wide variety of open source geospatial software without installing anything. It is composed entirely of free software, allowing it to be freely distributed, duplicated and passed around.

OSGeoLive will be introduced and used as the Operating System for this workshop.

Some of the tools and data sources we might look at are:
- Geofrabrik Download - https://download.geofabrik.org
- osm2pgsql - https://osm2pgsql.org
- QGIS - https://qgis.org
- PostGIS - https://postgis.net
