  11. Given that I currently have to rest a whole lot more than usual, it might be a "good" time to point towards OMF's current "Triple Giving November". I'll boosts the background and necessary information from last year after this post, but this is this year's link: omf.ngo/triple-giving-november

    I can also point towards other organisations if anyone should be interested.

    Either way, thank you for considering!

  31. Michael Barry has created a vector map to display the datasets released by the Overture Maps Foundation.

    This is the first time I've seen the ways in the dataset - great to see cycleways are in there! Also interesting to see how Microsoft and OSM buildings are interleaved - OSM buildings have the priority where I've checked.

  33. Die #Linux Foundation will mit #OMF Kartenmaterial frei zugänglich machen. Wo "Linux" draufsteht, klingt es erst mal gut. Sieht man beim genaueren Hinsehen, dass Meta, Microsoft, Amazon und TomTom die Zulieferer sind, entpuppt es sich als No-Go, von dem man die Finger lässt. Die genannten machen nichts umsonst, ohne nicht davon zu profitieren.

  34. Overture Maps Foundation rilascia il suo primo set di dati cartografici aperti a livello mondiale

    La Overture Maps Foundation (OMF) ha annunciato il rilascio del suo primo set di mappe open e gratuite.

  35. > the Overture data format which provides consistent segmentation of the data and a linear reference system to support additions of data such as speed limits or real-time traffic

    Interested to see how the Overture Maps Foundation's linear reference system supports data interoperability: docs.overturemaps.org/themes/t

    It reminds me of the sharedstreets.io/ system (MIT license).

  38. Exciting ME/CFS & Long COVID Research: Insights from Suzan Jackson

    "Last year, OMF hired me to do some freelance writing. I read scientific summaries of five of their new research projects and wrote brief, easy-to-understand recaps for patients, their families, and OMF donors. I am happy to now share these summaries with you…"

  39. "In late 2022, OMF was honored to be awarded with three research grants from Patient Led Research Collaborative (PLRC). These research projects will investigate three key areas: sleep, drug repurposing, and multi-omics of ME/CFS and Long COVID.

    These studies will provide further understanding of the complex mechanisms underlying these diseases and may help us identify new treatment options."

  40. "Open Medicine Foundation (OMF) is dedicated to finding diagnostic tools, treatments, and a cure for ME/CFS and related multi-system chronic complex diseases (msCCDs).

    Our current Long COVID and ME/CFS research is providing us with valuable insights into post-infection disease. We hope to use this knowledge to find solutions for all those affected by these debilitating illnesses."
