OpenColumbus meetings are public gatherings of individuals interested in empowering Civic Innovation in Central Ohio using open data and technology. You can be a developer, designer, analyst, idea person, etc... all backgrounds and skillsets are welcome.

We are beginning a new mapping project with OpenSidewalk team (https://www.opensidewalks.com/) from Jan 2021 using https://tasks.opensidewalks.com/explore To use it, log in with your OpenStreetMap account, click on ‘explore projects’, and check out either the crossings or sidewalks projects (we recommend starting with crossings).

Also we are working on Project Sidewalk(http://columbus.projectsidewalk.io/) and finishing mapping of sidewalks in Linden. Mapping is done from a computer so bring your laptop. Please login in if you can in advance and make yourself familiar with the labeling guidelines.
