+DESCRIPTION:At its core\, Matrix is not meant to be a user-management and 
+ authentication API. The OIDC-native project aims to replace the current 
+ APIs with OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect. It brings a more secure 
+ foundation for clients to authenticate\, whilst making it more flexible 
+ for homeservers to implement any authentication mechanism\, without 
+ having to worry about client compatibility or poor user 
+ experience.\n\nThis transition is backed by a project called Matrix 
+ Authentication Service\, which rewrites the authentication logic in 
+ Synapse from the ground up. It provides users with better registration\, 
+ login and account management experiences\, and enables new functionality 
+ like QR code login and restricted client access.\n\nThis talk will cover 
+ what this transition brings to end users\, how client developers can 
  adopt the new APIs\, and what the next steps are for the project.

- Global South. Experts agree that vehicle electrification will not be
- sufficient to avoid climate catastrophe: we also need to redesign cities
- to make it easy for people to walk\, bicycle\, or ride public transport
- instead of driving. OpenStreetMap can help.\n\nOpenStreetMap can empower
- cities to make planning decisions based on real data\, and to set more
- meaningful goals for progress. OSM has empowered cities like Fortaleza
- and Recife\, Brazil\, to plan expansions of their bicycle lane networks
- that serve the greatest number of potential cyclists. OSM has helped
- cities as distant as Seattle\, USA\; Jakarta\, Indonesia\; and
- Pimpri-Chinchwad\, India\, to optimize their public transport networks
- and make it easier for everyone to ride the bus. And this is only the
- beginning. \n\nNew tools are proliferating\, such as ITDP’s Atlas of
- Sustainable City Transport and Trufi’s GTFS-Builder. These tools make
- it much easier to turn OSM data into useful indicators that can guide
- city policy. In the case of Trufi’s work\, it does so by converting OSM
- data into industry-standard formats that can be used for trip planning or
- network analysis\, As tagging evolves\, OpenStreetMap is emerging as a
- solid foundation for creating multimodal route planning networks\, thanks
- to its comprehensive information for generating integral maps.
- Furthermore\,  Trufi has developed a specific course on mapping public
- transportation routes\, with the objective of training the OpenStreetMap
- community to contribute effectively to this particular aspect within the
- platform.\n\nITDP’s Atlas\, on the other hand\, uses OSM as well as
- other open sources to present measurements of meaningful indicators that
- city governments can use to set goals or compare themselves to nearby
- jurisdictions.  \n\nSome challenges\, however\, remain. It can be
- difficult to explain the virtues of OSM to governments who have never
- used it before. The tagging schema does not include certain nuances that
- are important for bicycle infrastructure planners (although a current
- proposal remedies many issues). And\, looking more broadly into the
- future\, there are many promising opportunities for the OSM community to
- push into new frontiers of data on topics like road usage\, footpath
- quality\, and parking. In order to prevent catastrophic climate change\,

+ to make it easy for people to walk\, bicycle\, or ride public transport 
+ instead of driving. OpenStreetMap can help.\n\nOpenStreetMap can empower 
+ cities to make planning decisions based on real data\, and to set more 
+ meaningful goals for progress. OSM has empowered cities like Fortaleza 
+ and Recife\, Brazil\, to plan expansions of their bicycle lane networks 
+ that serve the greatest number of potential cyclists. OSM has helped 
+ cities as distant as Seattle\, USA\; Jakarta\, Indonesia\; and 
+ Pimpri-Chinchwad\, India\, to optimize their public transport networks 
+ and make it easier for everyone to ride the bus. And this is only the 
+ beginning. \n\nNew tools are proliferating\, such as ITDP’s Atlas of 
+ Sustainable City Transport and Trufi’s GTFS-Builder. These tools make 
+ it much easier to turn OSM data into useful indicators that can guide 
+ city policy. In the case of Trufi’s work\, it does so by converting OSM 
+ data into industry-standard formats that can be used for trip planning or 
+ network analysis\, As tagging evolves\, OpenStreetMap is emerging as a 
+ solid foundation for creating multimodal route planning networks\, thanks 
+ to its comprehensive information for generating integral maps. 
+ Furthermore\,  Trufi has developed a specific course on mapping public 
+ transportation routes\, with the objective of training the OpenStreetMap 
+ community to contribute effectively to this particular aspect within the 
+ platform.\n\nITDP’s Atlas\, on the other hand\, uses OSM as well as 
+ other open sources to present measurements of meaningful indicators that 
+ city governments can use to set goals or compare themselves to nearby 
+ jurisdictions.  \n\nSome challenges\, however\, remain. It can be 
+ difficult to explain the virtues of OSM to governments who have never 
+ used it before. The tagging schema does not include certain nuances that 
+ are important for bicycle infrastructure planners (although a current 
+ proposal remedies many issues). And\, looking more broadly into the 
+ future\, there are many promising opportunities for the OSM community to 
+ push into new frontiers of data on topics like road usage\, footpath 
+ quality\, and parking. In order to prevent catastrophic climate change\, 
+ we need to change the way people move around cities. In order to do 
  that\, we need maps.

- Identifying gaps in anticipatory planning\, preparedness\, and response
- that could be addressed with open geospatial data and tools.\n-
- Understanding the limitations in data tools and infrastructure supporting

- collaboration between community organizations\, disaster agencies\, and
- the Open Mapping hub - East and Southern Africa.\n- Strengthening
- participation and ownership.\n- Developing data models through
- stakeholder identification of information relevant to the enhancement of
- disaster response\n\nData collection involved mapping relevant features
- to inform better response capability by Caritas Zimbabwe and other
- stakeholders in Muzarabani district. This was conducted via remote and
- field mapping using open mapping tools and updating OpenStreetMap and
- Mapillary in 14 wards. Features included buildings\, roads\, and relevant
- points of interest (POIs) such as health facilities\, shops\, markets\,
- schools\, water sources\, flood-prone road sections\, religious centers\,
- and public toilets.\n\nData analyses evaluated suitability of POIs as
- evacuation centers and cash voucher assistance points and evaluated
- proximity to communities\, thus visualizing community vulnerability to
- disasters and contributing to local contingency

- Flooding in Rural Liberia\n\nCoastal settlements of Liberia - 565kms of
- mainly lowlands\, hosting mangroves\, swamps and nine river estuaries -
- face climate risks such as flooding\, rising sea levels\, and coastal
- erosion. Coastal cities experience annual average precipitation of
- >500mm\, causing floods and sea erosion that disrupt livelihoods and
- damage properties and infrastructure.\n\nHOT’S Open Mapping Hub - West
- and Northern Africa\, iLab Liberia and OSM Liberia collaborated to
- address urgent needs of the Commonwealth District in Grand Cape Mount
- County.\n\nAn open\, participatory mapping approach was used with key
- stakeholders to accomplish: \n\n- Mapping stakeholders and climate
- change-related interventions\n- Filling gaps in existing datasets\, plus
- visualizations and decision-making tools for government and humanitarian
- actors.\n- Increasing climate resilience awareness through focus groups\,
- radio programs\, talk shows\, town hall meetings\, and resources for use
- by local authorities\, youth\, and women’s groups.\n- Mapping building
- footprints\, road networks\, waterways\, and land use and collecting
- field data on buildings\, education\, health\, commerce\,
- infrastructure\, waterways\, and other amenities to provide detailed
- information on the vulnerability\, exposure\, and flood hazards for more
- robust data analysis.\n\nData products were developed based on
- requirements and use cases from the National Disaster Management Agency\,
- Liberia National Police\, Ministry of Health\, Environmental Protection
- Agency\, Liberia Water and Sewer Corporation\, Liberia Land Authority\,
- Liberia National Red Cross Society\, Ministry of Internal Affairs\,
- Liberia Institute for Statistics and Geo-Information Services\, Ministry
- of Public Works\, Liberian Hydrological Services\, Liberia Geographical

- recovery initiatives.\n \nThese actors can now develop resilience
- programs to support the people in the district and adopt tools and
- workflows for other affected counties across Liberia.\n\nMapping for
- anticipatory action in Timor-Leste\n\nTimor Leste faces natural
- disasters\, including cyclones\, earthquakes\, tsunamis\, and heavy
- rainfall. This is exacerbated by inadequate infrastructure and many
- communities who\, despite developmental strides\, grapple with poverty
- and food insecurity.\n\nLocal map data plays a pivotal role in addressing
- these issues proactively\, offering crucial support to local actors in
- decision-making and impact-based forecasting\, but was incomplete and
- lacking depth.\n\nThe Red Cross Crescent Climate Centre and Timor-Leste
- Red Cross worked with HOT’s Open Mapping Hub - Asia Pacific and
- OpenStreetMap Timor-Leste community on mapping\, community engagement\,
- and surfacing insights into areas at risk from floods\, landslides\, and
- other climate-related hazards.\n\nAfter identification of priority areas

- including specific building features indicating susceptibility to floods
- or other hazards\, such as minimum foundation height and building
- materials. Alongside open geospatial data\, qualitative information on

+ rules that govern what can be mapped in OSM and how? How are we creating 
+ a coherent global map and not just a bunch of random data about the 
+ world?\n\nFor years we have had the "on the ground rule" (really more of 
+ a guideline) that helps us decide what and how to map. It has served us 
+ well\, but it is also sometimes misunderstood. And it is not the whole

-DESCRIPTION:In the past\, iD had to and has overcome several challenging
- hurdles to become what it is today: A quite unique map editor that is the
- point of entry of most contributors of OpenStreetMap into the world of
- mapping.\n\nToday\, iD is facing of a number of signifiant challenges to
- make it even more usable to a wide user base\, and will continue to do so
- into the foreseeable future especially in regards to make it fit for the
- mapping topics of the future. For example\, the editor needs to be able
- to cope with the growing amount and richness of OSM’s map data as well
- as as the increasingly important task of keeping the map up to
- date.\n\nThe design of iD’s current user interface is substantially
- based on OSM’s data model. This can be seen for example in the workflow
- of creating a new map feature: It starts out with a blank “dummy” map
- geometry which – in a second step – has to be converted into a map
- feature by choosing a preset. While this is true to the way OSM
- represents this information in the data (i.e. in the form of nodes\, ways

+DESCRIPTION:In the past\, iD had to and has overcome several challenging 
+ hurdles to become what it is today: A quite unique map editor that is the 
+ point of entry of most contributors of OpenStreetMap into the world of 
+ mapping.\n\nToday\, iD is facing of a number of signifiant challenges to 
+ make it even more usable to a wide user base\, and will continue to do so 
+ into the foreseeable future especially in regards to make it fit for the 
+ mapping topics of the future. For example\, the editor needs to be able 
+ to cope with the growing amount and richness of OSM’s map data as well 
+ as as the increasingly important task of keeping the map up to 
+ date.\n\nThe design of iD’s current user interface is substantially 
+ based on OSM’s data model. This can be seen for example in the workflow 
+ of creating a new map feature: It starts out with a blank “dummy” map 
+ geometry which – in a second step – has to be converted into a map 
+ feature by choosing a preset. While this is true to the way OSM 
+ represents this information in the data (i.e. in the form of nodes\, ways 
+ and relations which are enriched with tags)\, this is for most simple use 
+ cases an unnecessary complication.\n\nInstead of primarily catering to 
+ the needs and requirements arising from the underlying data structures\, 
+ iD’s usability should be instead built around the needs of of the 
+ different groups of mappers. And as these vary quite significantly 
+ depending on the interests and/or experience of the individual mappers\, 
+ a promising approach to bring all of these together is to evolve iD’s 
+ user interface into an adaptive mapping experience with the goal to make 
+ vital mapping workflows intuitive\, easy\, fast and delightful.\n\nThis 
+ transformation will definitely not be a small endeavor and is far from 
+ finally defined: in fact this should only be a start of a larger 
  discussion. Let us together flesh out the details of this project.
