I run NextGIS, a company that creates geospatial software.

I coordinate GIS-Lab.info, community of GIS/RS specialists, my focus is on open geodata and software in Russia.

In regard of OSM I see my role in bridging the gap between GIS and OSM community, for example by bringing data from OSM to GIS and people from GIS to OSM.

About myself: m-d.me

Probably lots of outdated links here. Time flies, can't keep up, sorry.

My history with OSM (only major things)

  • I started in April 2008
  • My first big undertaking happened in August 2008. It was the import of PGS shoreline from Norway up to Taimyr with lots of manual work (more on forum)
  • Quickly realizing importance of OSM I ran a round table (turned out to be more like a workshop) on GIS-Forum in Samara in July 2009, where AkMeR was invited for probably first speech on OSM in GIS community in Russia (more on GIS-Lab Blog).
  • To continue together with AkMeR and vvovv we ran another seminar on OSM and started a discussion on open geodata in general at WEB&GIS conference in December, 2009
  • lots of other events, Open GIS conference in 2013 and 2015, workshops, seminars, projects...
