Amsterdam 2014
The Amsterdam Hackathon 2014 was a small hackathon focussing on GLAM activities and wikidata. It was held in Amsterdam, Netherlands in 2014 from 14-16 Nov. See the photos of the event.
It was a weekend filled with hacking together with other GLAM and/or wikidata developers. The Hackathon was open to developers with experience in relevant projects.
Wikimedia Netherlands has a longstanding history organising hackathons and GLAM camps. Previous events were held in 2013, 2012 and 2011.
Location
The venue was Stayokay Hostel Amsterdam Zeeburg, in Amsterdam, Netherlands.The venue can easily be reached by public transport:
- NS Train to Amsterdam Muiderpoort, +- 900m walk. 2.10 €, single ticket can be bought from the vending machines or counters in the train station. If you're traveling from Schiphol Airport, buy a ticket to Amsterdam Muiderpoort from Schiphol (3.90 €, train runs every 30 min direct, with change more often) rather then buy a second ticket at Amsterdam Centraal. (walking directions, ns.nl schedules).
