Talkoot podcast: The story of Mapio Cymru
We’ve been working on a project to improve mapping in Wales and in Welsh: Mapio Cymru. It’s a project that is only made possible by the magic of open data and open source tools.
In the latest edition of our podcast series “Talkoot” Leah Lockhart sat down with Dai Lingual, Syr Carl Morris ☺☻and Ben Proctor (that’s me) to find out more about the project, where it came from and where it’s going.
