Volunteers will map infrastructure to support a TBD humanitarian mission …from the comfort of the Arthur Lakes Library.

The process of mapping in OpenStreetMap is easy, interesting, a good way to connect with other humanitarians, and a great way to help the most vulnerable populations on Earth. No experience is necessary to participate in the mapathon. If you can trace, you can map!

Bring:

• Laptop computer (Linux, Mac or Windows)
