OSMit a Matera
The national gathering of OpenStreetMap supporters (OSMit14) will be held in Matera from October the 3rd to the 5th 2014'- Mapping places in an open format, allowing the contribution by everyone to complete the maps is their core goal. Why having OSMit14 in Matera? Because Matera is candidated to European Capital of Culture for 2019. The open mapping was a key element in involving the city and its citizens in a voluntary mobilization that had a big impact on the access to candidacy “semi-finals“, in 2013. Open Future has become Matera 2019 motto. 80 to 100 mappers and supporters from all over Italy will be in OSMit14, to share experiences of open mapping in both Italy and Europe. All information about registration and attendance are available on the website http://conf.openstreetmap.it
Wikipedian in residence at Fondazione BEIC
The Biblioteca Europea di Informazione e Cultura (BEIC) (European Library of Information and Culture) was born in Milan with the goal of offering to the community a state of the art structure for universal access to information and knowledge in all their forms, thanks to an on-line repository of bibliographic resources and documents from Milan metropolitan area using the most advanced digital techniques (translating from their website). This statemen shows how BEIC and Wikimedia Italia share a purpose that pushed towards an agreement: our association will be a bridge between the Library and Wikipedia community. To this goal, the Board identified a member, known as Nemo, that will act as consultant, as experienced with the "Wikipedian in residence". In four months (Septembet 15 settembre - January 15), the wikipedian will teach to and help BEIC employees in mastering Wikipedia and understanding its pphilosophy and the inner working of Wikimedia projects. Both parties hope that this partnership, even if limited at the beginning, will strengthen and grow.

Novità dal mondo OpenStreetMap
- Nei giorni scorsi è stato lanciato il portale della trasparenza per i lavori di Expo 2015, dal quale si possono controllare lo stato di esecuzione degli appalti e scaricare i relativi dati. Le mappe di sfondo provengono da uno dei vari rendering di OpenStreetMap (OpenCycleMap).
- OSM è utilizzato come sfondo anche nel webgis di consultazione dei vincoli paesaggistici del MiBACT: il SITAP
- Se andate a fare safari fotografici per Wiki Loves Monuments, controllate se le voci di Wikipedia contengono già le coordinate del monumento: nel caso non ci siano inseritele prendendole da OpenStreetMap!
