OpenStreetMap contributions in Ghana and Africa continue to grow rapidly but one big question is how is this growth transforming and impacting the project's future.

Did you know JOSM can do many things better than your favorite Desktop GIS application? Imagine replacing your Desktop GIS with JOSM that's it :). Some JOSM Aha! moments. In this workshop we will explore many JOSM tips that improve mapping both within OpenStreetMap and beyond.

PostgreSQL is a powerful, open source object-relational database system. It can be extended with PostGIS which allows you to store and handle geospatial data in the database. This combination is very powerful and provides many possibilities.

[pgRouting](http://www.pgrouting.org/) is an open-source library that provides a variety of graph algorithms tools as an extension of a [PostGIS](http://www.postgis.org/) enabled database on PostgreSQL.

This workshop provides a practical, overview of key software used within a Spatial Data Infrastructure SDI. In the workshop we will use OSGeoLive and the Open Source software and sample data shipped with it to get to know the components of an SDI.

Africa is huge, publicly available imagery in OSM might not always be up-to-date but massive data is being created with old imagery in many parts of the continent.

We create data on OpenStreetMap regularly but often very few re-use the data or know about ways to reuse it. This workshop will focus on how to get/re-use OpenStreetMap in an open source Desktop or Server GIS, etc.
