#stateofthemapus2026 — Public Fediverse posts

This walkshed calculating tool looks super cool! The ability to have different profiles for different mobility scenarios is useful, but the feature for editing the map to run hypothetical scenarios such as "what if we built a curb ramp here?" is a game changer!

Since I know that a lot of #OpenStreetMap folks are also invested in the Fediverse, and @OpenStreetMapUS publishes their videos under a CC license, I have mirrored all the videos from #stateofthemapus2026 on #peertube . Please enjoy!

I plan on doing this for all the videos they put up on their YouTube channel from now on, so feel free to subscribe:

Out of all the talks that I saw at #stateofthemapus2026 this one was by far the coolest: using OSM data in combination with census data to calculate the hypothetical bike trips of every student within the attendance areas of Madison high schools. In particular, they compared the most direct route with the safest route to find out how much time we are wasting of all these students. Bravo, Ben and @haraldkliems !

Given that I got turned down for a job I was hopeful for, I am now hoping #stateofthemapus2026 might introduce me to some opportunities!
