Tristram Gräbener
I am a irregular contributor to OpenStreetMap since 20 years.
Professionally I am a developer and often work on transportation data, and more specifically with public transit.
I developed tools to be able to use OSM for simple routing algorithms https://github.com/rust-transit/osm4routing2/ and for linear referencing systems https://github.com/OpenRailAssociation/liblrs

SNCF Réseau is the railway infrastructure manager of France. Culturally in this big (53 000 employees), old (founded in 1938 to nationalize pre-existing railway companies) company, geographic and open data is little well known nor used.
We replaced outdated internal data with OpenStreetMap’s railway track data (and not only as a base layer!). In this talk, we will tell you how we pulled this off.
