There were lots of really good talks at SotMUS, but since there were two tracks, I couldn't attend all of them (dang it!).Here's some quick links to presentations that I attended and really liked—several have a local Colorado perspective or are highlighting work done by current and former co-workers:* Keynote by Emily Jacobi (Digital Democracy): touching on real world events and how it affects our community "the urgency of now"* Machine Learning to assist with making great maps (Facebook)* Mapping Sidewalks for Pedestrian routing (Trimet)* Bicycle Network Analysis - helping the majority of 'interested but concerned' cyclists to be safer (People for Bikes)* Planimetrics import for Denver Metro area - over 600K building rooftops are ready (DRCOG)* Data Usage in Colorado - app challenge to make public data more useful (Go Code Colorado)* Wikiwar Historical Mapping Adventures - cool ways to use OSM data in historical war gaming (Open Historical Maps)There are, of course, many more presentations to watch (including the keynote by Astronaut Christopher Loria; the complete program is a good way to feed your appetite on all things OpenStreetMap that were discussed.Here's the group photo and we're waiting on the satellite selfie to be available soon of the over 500 people that were in attendance!Cheers,Deb--deb tankersleyProduct Manager, DiscoveryWikimedia FoundationOn Tue, Oct 24, 2017 at 12:25 PM, Trey Jones <tjones@wikimedia.org> wrote:Wow—there are so many videos!Deb, can you recommend a few things that you really enjoyed seeing and/or that you didn't get to see but that looked really good?Thanks!Trey JonesSr. Software Engineer, Search Platform
