Two new themes have dropped:

For all the #train enthusiasts out there: mapcomplete.org/historic_rolli… shows a map of historical locomotives and other rolling stock that are permanently placed somewhere - e.g. monuments, in a museum or just abandoned.

mapcomplete.org/historic_aircr… is a similar map showing #aircraft , interlinking with #wikidata for the models.

Beware: they are dangerous: they are quite addictive to get everything right...

As a demonstration of the power of OpenStreetMap and links into things like Wikidata, I present my DecomissionedAircraftMap. It pulls geodata for displayed aircraft from OpenStreetMap and generates thumbnails from linked Wikidata entries.

Feel free to link some more, the bot pulls new thumbnails once a day.

#Wikidata arrive comme filtre dans le catalogue des applications mobilisant #OpensStreetMap !

Une mine d'idées pour les personnes travaillant à rapprocher les deux communs :

An evening after day 1 of #SOOCon23 and I'm back in the hotel playing with #wikidata.

Updating the SOOCON item wikidata.org/wiki/Q116052052 adding my pic etc

Adding significant figures such as Amanda CEO wikidata.org/wiki/Q116726293

And creating a query for 3D printers 'cos someone asked me what can WD do in this area: w.wiki/6K6r

Fun times! :)
