Maps & hacks @ #Hack4NO
Written by Susanna Ånäs, who received a travel grant from Wikimedia Norge for Nordic Open Geodata Meetup at Hønefoss.
Around 30 participants gathered in the Nordic Open Geodata Meetup at the Norwegian mapping authority Kartverket’s headquarters in Hønefoss, Norway. The participants convened from around the Nordics: Norway, Sweden, Finland and Estonia.
One reason for the gathering was to chart ways of networking about open geodata in the Nordic countries. Another aspect was to discuss ideas for the #Hack4NO hackathon that followed the next day.
