Dear Mappers,
I was invited to give a short online lecture - and I chose to present this:

UNIGIS International regurarly provides webinars - so called u_Lectures (*). At June 10 17:00 MEZ Prof. Stefan Keller is speaking on "Making Maps from OpenStreetMap Data". Registration is now open: https://www3.gotomeeting.com/register/179829006
This presentation explains how to make a map with an own style given some amount of cartographic knowledge. The combination of freely accessible worldwide established OpenStreetMap (OSM) data and open source tools empower people to do their own cartographic visualization. A core element of this presentation is a handbook with selected software tools and programming scripts. First we go through the steps and tools needed to produce a basemap or a thematic map supported by a gallery of predefined styles. Then we look at related aspects of preprocessing like database (tag) homogenization and cartographic generalization.

(*) u_Lectures are presented by invited speakers from academia, the GI industry, public administration, NGOs and other actors in the field of Geoinformatics and GIScience. Available primarily to UNIGIS alumni and active UNIGIS students, this online lecture series serves as a professional and academic 'updating' opportunity within a generic 'lifelong learning' framework.

Dear Stefan
Great to see your efforts. :-)
Pop's up in my mind:
What about some place in
adding such lectures or other kind of presentations done by Community Members? - Or did I missed that place?
cheeers, Andreas
