It’s not just open source that we showcase on the Developers’ Bakery. Today we’ll talk about open data.

We’re glad to have on stage Said Turksever to talk about his experience with OpenStreetMap.

In this episode Said will tell us about his experience with OSM, how the community works, and how you can contribute as well.
