This Mapping Stuff
Could Really Take Off

SteveC

We just hit 1,000 people
editing per month

...only much later do we
ﬁnd that the model,
despite much argument,
is what Real Companies
basically use

...but there were
supposed to be tag
equivalences

Tags create debate
Tags create community

WFS-T is still dumb
N/S/W simplicity wins

Workﬂow was supposed
to be split -
•GPS
•Vectorisation
•Classiﬁcation

Don’t listen to anyone,
they only say everything
is impossible

Don’t listen to anyone,
they only say everything
is possible

Concentrate on
community
(it helps if you wrote all
the server code too)

This means debates (tags),
pubs (mapping parties),
simplicity (N/S/W) and
spreading the gospel (talks)

I’ve given over 40
presentations on OSM
in 6 countries...

...and lots of people still
haven’t heard of
wikipedia

Give people doing the
work responsibility
(sysadmin, tile, www,
OSMF)

We only got here by
totally ignoring the GIS
industry

•GPS Inaccurate
•WFS-T required
•Tags will never work
•Database will be too big
•OS have mastermap

Mining Workspace Updates in CVS

Thomas Zimmermann

The document discusses updates and commits made in CVS version control software. It includes logs of revisions for an IBuffer.java file with information on dates, authors, and changes made. It also contains charts showing data on how often updates integrate changes, how many commits lead to integrations, what percentage of integrations have conflicts, and how many conflicting changes are discarded for different projects like JEdit and Python. The conclusion is that CVS can integrate many changes but not all, and developers often have their own workspaces.

Unit testing with JUnit

Thomas Zimmermann

Unit testing with JUnit focuses on testing individual units of source code using JUnit. Key aspects covered include: - Unit testing tests the smallest testable parts of code, while integration testing tests groups of code modules and system testing tests complete integrated systems. - Tests in JUnit are implemented as public void testX() methods that call methods under test and assert expected outcomes. - A test suite assembles individual test methods using reflection and executes the suite to automatically run all tests. - Best practices include writing tests before code, testing all code that could break, and running tests frequently for rapid feedback.

The document discusses openness in mobile platforms and operating systems. It summarizes the approaches taken by various platforms including iPhone, Android, mainstream mobile Linux platforms, and others. iPhone and Android are not fully open source and have limited open development environments. Mainstream mobile Linux platforms are more open source, have open development processes, and support a variety of programming languages and environments. Being more open leads to greater third-party development, which drives further platform improvements and reduced fragmentation.

The document outlines Jason Hoffman's presentation on scaling a Rails application from the bottom up. It discusses fundamental limits like money, time, and hardware resources. It provides examples of logical server roles needed for a scalable architecture including provisioning, monitoring, logging etc. It also discusses hardware considerations like power, space, and networking. The presentation emphasizes standardization, virtualization, and keeping infrastructure costs below 10% of revenue.

Five Myths About GIS in 2011 (Bill Dollins)

geeknixta

1. The desktop is not dead for GIS work. While web apps are popular, the desktop remains important for starting GIS projects and performing complex spatial analysis. Desktop GIS work can then be shared to web apps. 2. Maps are a powerful part of GIS but spatial analysis and processing adds even more utility. Background tasks like joins, exports, and analysis can be done and results visualized through maps. 3. While the web has disrupted some areas, GIS is also disrupting the web by bringing location and spatial analysis to more web services and applications. Standards like REST and JSON have helped GIS integrate with the web.

This document introduces OpenHistoricalMap.org (OHM), a project to map historical objects and places in OpenStreetMap. OHM maintains a separate database from OSM to store historical data with start and end dates. Examples are given of areas mapped in both historical and current times. Contributors can add historical data by importing archive data from OSM, tracing from historical maps, or directly editing in OHM with normal OSM tags plus start/end dates. Future goals include more map layers, timesliders, and better tracing tools to make OHM data more accessible and usable.

OpenStreetMap is a collaborative project to create a free editable map of the world. It was founded in 2004 in response to expensive licensing of Ordnance Survey data. Users can map areas by collecting GPS data or editing existing maps. The data is openly licensed and used in many applications. OpenStreetMap has over a million users who have collected billions of GPS points to map nodes, ways and areas using a folksonomy tagging scheme. The data can be accessed through the website, API or exports and rendered into maps using tools like Ruby libraries, PostGIS, and Mapnik.

Space place psychogeography - foss4g 2013

chippy

This document discusses the concept of psychogeography and situationist practices related to exploring and mapping one's surroundings. It covers theories put forth by Guy Debord and the Situationists on deriving meaning from one's environment and how architecture can influence behavior. Specific situationist techniques are mentioned like the dérive, which involves drifting through an area and mapping psychogeographical features. Examples are given of alternative mapping projects that apply these ideas like mapping unusual or subjective attributes of places. The document advocates exploring one's surroundings through playful derivation to gain new perspectives and insights.

Psychogeography tim waters wherecampEU 2012

chippy

Psychogeography is the study of how geographic environments influence individuals' emotions and behaviors. It involves exploring landscapes in unconventional ways to gain unique perspectives. Techniques include deriving, which involves drifting through an area without a fixed route or purpose. The Situationists in 1950s Paris were early practitioners of psychogeography and deriving as a way to transform perceptions of places and everyday life. Modern interest has revived with groups conducting psychogeographic walks and events to re-experience urban environments. Mobile apps now offer new ways to engage in psychogeographic mapping and storytelling about places.

The document describes a web-based GIS tool called Tagger that allows users to capture fuzzy geographic areas and attributes. It has three main components: 1) A user input tool that lets users spray fuzzy areas on a map and tag attributes. 2) A storage and weighting tool that aggregates inputs from multiple users. 3) A querying tool that represents the aggregated data and allows searching tagged comments based on perceived importance. The tool was developed to capture everyday geography like areas people perceive as "nice" or having "high crime", which usually have vague boundaries and vary within.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters

Safe Software

Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they? Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality. You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server

Antonios Katsarakis

This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...

Alex Pruden

Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security. Paper Link: https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/257

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024

Vadym Kazulkin

Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

For the full video of this presentation, please visit: https://www.edge-ai-vision.com/2024/06/temporal-event-neural-networks-a-more-efficient-alternative-to-the-transformer-a-presentation-from-brainchip/ Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit. The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network.
