Karlsruhe Hack Weekend February 2024
What's the plan? / Was ist geplant?
We're having an OSM hack weekend in Karlsruhe, Germany, on 24/25 February 2024.
Surely you have some unfinished OSM projects or some good ideas for new ones. Bring them with you to Karlsruhe. You will find people to discuss the details with you, or build something.
Location / Der Ort
We meet at the Geofabrik office in Karlsruhe.
The tram station Europaplatz is the closest to the office. (Tram line 1 and light rail lines S1, S11, S5 and S51 serve the shiny new underground station.)
Das Hack-Weekend findet in den Büroräumen der Geofabrik statt.
Die Straßenbahnhaltestelle Europaplatz ist vom Hauptbahnhof aus gut erreichbar und liegt relativ nahe am Geofabrik-Büro. Die Straßenbahnlinie 1 und die Stadtbahnlinien S1, S11, S5 und S51 halten in der neuen U-Strab-Station.
Address: Amalienstraße 44, 76133 Karlsruhe
Food and drink / Essen und Trinken
Geofabrik provides snacks and beverages and also the pizza we'll likely have for lunch as usual. Dinner will likely be in a nearby restaurant where everybody pays for themselves.
Die Geofabrik versorgt Euch mit Getränken und Knabberzeug und auch mit (vermutlich) Pizza zum Mittagessen. Abends gehen wir in ein Restaurant in der Nähe, hier zahlt dann jeder selbst.
Accommodation / Übernachtung
You have to organize your accommodation yourself. A list of suitable hotels (all in walking distance):
- Hotel Ambassador (good feedback, 250 m walking distance)
- Hotel Royal (ok, cheaper than Rio, 300 m walking distance)
