Today's meeting at PSU has good turnout, so maybe we'll continue the trend. Geology 69 and Geography 419 both might be good locations for meetings in the future.

Go to the Winter Coders social instead!! (check Calagator of details).<br /> <br /> = OSM Building import =<br /> <br /> We want to import all the buildings in the Metro area! The last time we discussed this was at State of the Map US in DC, but we haven't made much progress because we took time off to organize FOSS4G. Notes from State of the Map are here:<br /> <br /> https://github.com/pdxosgeo/pdxbldgimport/blob/master/SOTM-BoF-notes.md<br /> <br /> Details about what we are working on are here:<br /> <br /> http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Portland,_OR_Bldg_import<br /> <br /> and here:<br /> <br /> https://github.com/pdxosgeo/pdxbldgimport<br /> <br /> Approx 85% +/- of the buildings are easily handled (one address per building etc), so these should be handled in an automated process in a phase 1. The remaining edge cases should be able to be focused on in a more detailed hand-curated process. For example, we could create a Task Manager process to work on the remaining 15% edge case problem buildings (apartment buildings and conflicts with existing building for examples). <br /> <br /> There is a rumor that Metro is currently trying to improve the address data (Ben Sainsbury?) and this might cause us to want to wait for the next release before we go forward. Grant will check with Metro on this and report back. <br /> <br /> Justin has some pull requests that will help with the chunking problem.<br /> <br /> Next step for how we interact with the OSM-Import community, is for us to complete the items in GitHub Issue #8, and release our plan to the community.<br /> <br /> = GIS day (November 19th Meeting) =<br /> <br /> Next meeting is on GIS day! The next day is PostGIS day! We will try to coordinate with the ASPRS campus group to publicize it. <br /> <br /> Maybe we can do it at the Rail Heritage Center. Grant will contact the YP group. Tanya will call RHC. Percy will talk to Deb. Eli will help with URISA reimbursement. We may have up to $600 in the budget (between PDXOSGeo and YPs).

The remaining edge cases should be able to be focused on in a more detailed hand-curated process. For example, we could create a Task Manager process to work on the remaining 15% edge case problem buildings (apartment buildings and conflicts with existing building for examples). <br /> <br /> There is a rumor that Metro is currently trying to improve the address data (Ben Sainsbury?) and this might cause us to want to wait for the next release before we go forward.

Call for proposals went out to all previous attendees, and emails went out to sponsor lists. <br /> <br /> Please forward the Call for proposals to various lists you may be a member of.<br /> <br /> === Academic track ===<br /> <br /> Rolling along, received some comments, 2013 Proceedings are progressing towards publication<br /> <br /> === Keynotes &amp; Invited Talks ===<br /> <br /> Darrell asked about this on the private list, but feels we need more exposure. He is building a list of all the good suggestions, but needs more ideas. Also so advice on how to prioritize people would be great. <br /> <br /> We need 2 kinds of speakers:<br /> <br /> * keynoters (opening and closing)<br /> * invited talks (includes morning plenary people up to 2 max per day)<br /> <br /> Focus at the moment should be on inviting the keynoters. These should be people that are either recognizable names or from interesting/recognizable companies/projects, etc.<br /> <br /> Darrell would like a process for ranking to emerge from all our suggestions - he will create a spreadsheet and circulate for voting, and we will try to pick a top 5-6 list from which we can begin to contact potential speakers (hoping to arrive at 2 who can do it).<br /> <br /> === Workshops ===<br /> <br /> Need to check with prior LOCs on if workshops have been voted on in the past, and if so what tool or system has been used to enable voting. We will likely do the rankings internally to speed the process along.<br /> <br /> === Sponsorships ===<br /> <br /> * Media sponsors - we are getting traffic from SlashGeo and a few big blogs and project pages <br /> * Chris has been doing a great job contacting bloggers and tracking how many agree to post a logo + link (thanks Chris!)<br /> * sponsor nibbles - sponsors are contacting us with interest and some ideas about custom packages<br /> <br /> We discussed what to do when a potential sponsor approaches us with an offer of a custom package, and how to create equivalencies for freebies if any.<br /> <br /> We went through our list of important sponsors and broke the list up for followup by volunteers. We will have some language for these special contacts to use, and hope to contact them in the next week, Spencer Gardner wants to help on sponsors so we’ll put him on the list.<br /> <br /> === Contract reports ===<br /> <br /> * Beth reports that school buses can be cancelled up to 2 weeks in advance, scheduling would need to be confirmed by then too<br /> * the WFC contract has been countersigned and will be uploaded to TeamworksPM soon<br /> * E3 webcasting &amp; show decorator contracts are all in the last phases of being signed.<br /> <br /> === Volunteer Report ===<br /> <br /> * Kristin has been helping with editing text and doing good work<br /> * Lynnae wants to help on map gallery and website<br /> * Spencer will be helping out with sponsor contacts<br /> * Tanya will compose some emails for OSGeo Discuss - add to teamworks<br /> * Everyone should get the word out to your local user groups, OR-URISA Section, etc<br /> <br /> === Map Gallery ===<br /> <br /> Tentative budget for the map gallery is set and we will turn this group loose soon. Lynnae &amp; Spencer &amp; others. Tanya will contact Barry for information on the setup used last time around.
