    Hello @geomob
    it seems that my teeth do not allow me to attend geomob Cologne today. I am deeply sorry.

    Basically working on fedigeo, federated geocoding and routing. Had some talks and keynotes about it. Public Spaces AMD is pinned but we also had a german talk at Berlin Fediday. Let's stay in contact.

    Seeking interop testing for geosocial ActivityPub client

    "So, I worked on making #placespub for #geosocial #hackers to experiment with. It’s a service that exposes places from the amazing #OpenStreetMap collection of data as #AS2objects on the Web.

Part of my work in the Social Web Community Group at the W3C has been work in the GeoSocial Task Force. This is a sub-group of the SocialCG that is working on implementing user stories in ActivityPub related to the intersection of geographical systems and social networking, for example, tagging an image with the […]
