Let's Map This Out! Working with GIS and OpenStreetmap Data

In this Fork Pull Merge Push episode, we discuss geographic
information system (GIS) - not a well-known domain to many. Henna
Kalliokoski, a GIS professional and functional programming
enthusiast will share her knowledge on GIS data, coordinate
systems and e.g. accessibility. GIS data can be used in many
different ways and she will shed light on e.g. how open source
communities contribute to GIS data and service development.

Guest
Henna Kalliokoski a full-stack developer and a GIS professional
at Reaktor. Henna gets inspired by people and wants to make the
world a better place. She believes in the power of open source
and open data. In her free time, Henna learns Chineese and enjoys
painting.

Hosts 
Anna Fröblom is a great programmer, problem-solver, hobby
photographer, lego enthusiast, and simply a nice person.

Esko Lahti is an engineer who now works in the company that got
him into Clojure. Now, his party trick at meetups is to
rapid-fire through an extensive list of parentheses jokes.
