7/ Last but not least was Dustin Carlino, discussing the challenges of using #OpenStreetMap for pedestrian walking, specifically in cases of busy, uncrossable roads. We need correct tagging of crossings for more accurate real-life routing and planning.

6/ Next up we heard from Christine Langston about her research on housing construction and climate risk. The unfortunate conclusion is that policy seems to be disproportionally encouraging the construction of housing in high-risk areas 😟
