[talk-au] Funding for OpenStreetMap initiatives

[Brendan Barnes]

Suggestions:

Loanable equipment such as high-precision handheld GPS units for GPS
traces, and Waylens or 360 degree cameras for KartaView image sequences.
Similar to the equipment loan program in Europe
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GPS_Units_for_Loan

Hardware for a loanable KartaView rig project, such as a "trekking-style"
backpack for OSM hikers, or a HD multi-camera, high-precision GPS car rig.

Funding to help secure more OSM hardware hosting sponsors in the region.
Currently we only have two Tile Servers, and they are both located in
Melbourne, Australia.

Drone mapping infrastructure, such as a community Open Drone Map cloud
server, to process orthorectified aerial imagery.
