OpenStreetMap is an open-source, online map of the World! (Think Wikipedia... but as a map!) This Mapping Party is a community event targeted at getting more of Seattle mapped the way you want it mapped! You come along, we loan you a GPS unit and show you how to use it (it's easy!) and then you go out mapping an area of your choosing. You come back at the end of the day and we show you how to get that data into OpenStreetMap.

This will be a relaxed event and you're supposed to have fun. Often we grab "refreshments" after the event, and this is no exception.

11:00am-4:00pm Sat 11/15 & 11:00am-3:00pm Sun 11/16

      “I love maps and exploring, but I've gotten away from it while being a grown-up. Now my kids are gone, and there's a whole new world of technology to learn. I love Seattle - sounds like a great project!”

      “Curious. Might be able to help. Just found the openstreetmap site the other day when researching open source GIS (currently use ESRI products at work, but they are sooo expensive!).”
