Talk at State of the Map
========================
I'm planning to do a talk/video on MapComplete on _State of the Map 2021_. This document outlines the structure of the
talk and serves as my speaker notes.
Overview
--------
1. What is MapComplete? Three slides
2. Already one year old!
a. Where and how did it start? "This project isn't going anywhere"
(buurtnatuur, cyclofix, Antwerpen, Natuurpunt, Oost-Vlaanderen?, Toerisme Vlaanderen?)
b. Where are we now? Some cool statistics
3. The vision a. Your granny can use it a. pragmatism - somewhat working today is better then something perfect tomorrow
a. It's a trap! Cool thematic map (as iframe on website) -> the OSM rabbit hole -> easy start -> more features when
mapping more -> oh, I can make a theme too!
b. The pareto frontier of 'easy to use' vs 'number of features' c. The thematic approach (+ disabling/enabling
features per theme/view)
4. The future a. paid projects? Microgrant for a better theme creator? b. user contributed themes (see you next talk!)
5. OpenStreetMap is Cool!
