To all the free software enthusiasts in Barcelona: you've found your place! Barcelona Free Software is hosting FLOSS-oriented talks addressed to developers and users depending on the occasion.
We'd love to meet everyone interested in free and open technologies around the city and discuss it both in presentations and in more relaxed environments.

See all- Open Data, Open Problems: The Story Behind CityBikesAkasha Hub, Barcelona
CityBikes is the most comprehensive open access API for bike sharing information, with support for more than 700 cities all around the world.
Less than 25% of CityBikes data comes from open data standard feeds—for every city in CityBikes publishing their bike sharing information in a reusable format, there are at least three more that do not use a standard format.
CityBikes aims to change that by providing developers, researchers and organizations with a standard resource to bridge this gap and contribute towards an interoperable open data ecosystem for mobility services.
In this talk, Lluís Esquerda main developer at CityBikes will share the motivations behind the project, what it’s like to maintain it after more than a decade, and dive into the new tools and historical data systems they are building.
