Lokku-long time supporters of geo-innovation @WhereBerlin

WhereBerlin is having great supporters in the geo area. Thank you Lokku!

  "We are long time supporters of geo-innovation, via our brands Nestoria (http://nestoria.com), OpenCage (http://opencagedata.com) and  #geomob (http://geomobldn.org), the regular geo-innovation event we run in London. In addition we do seed investments in geo start-ups.

For example we recently invested in SplashMaps (http://www.splash-maps.com), who make custom fabric maps for the outdoors.  I am pleased to announce that in November they will be expanding outside of the UK and customers will have the ability to make German maps. 

  To celebrate we will be awarding free SplashMaps to the best WhereCamp speakers, as voted by the audience. 

We're delighted to again sponsor a WhereCamp event."

Photon – Geocoding with OSM Data @WhereBerlin

OSM is a collaborative project to create a free map of the world and provides a rich, fast-growing source for spatial data. It is widely used for displaying maps and has been adopted by many companies including Foursquare.

Despite its success there is still a missing piece in the OSM ecosystem: a powerful tool to search for places and addresses. Komoot released photon, an open source geocoder that addresses that missing piece by using elasticsearch, a robust open source search engine.

In his talk, Christoph will explain the challenges that photon addresses, the features it provides, and how you can benefit from photon and use it for your project too.

Take a look:
