Wikimedia Hackathon
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).
  • GVB Bus 22 to Zeeburgerdijk +- 300m walk. 2.80 €, single ticket can be bought on board of the bus.

Accomodation

Just like the location, accommodation has been secured in 4p/6p dorms at the Stayokay Hostel Amsterdam Zeeburg (Map), in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

The dorms tend to consist of bunk beds where each bed has its own light and power supply. Inside each dorm there is a separate toilet and a separate shower. A sink is available in the dorm itself. You have to bring your own towels or rent them at the hostel.
