Missing Maps mapathon

Join us for an OpenStreetMap (http://www.openstreetmap.org/) (OSM) mapping event for Missing Maps, in support of Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF), the Red Cross and the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT), to help improve maps of vulnerable or disaster affected places such as Tanzania, Uganda, Indonesia and Nepal. This time we will be supporting MSF's work in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The mapping event is open to everyone, from newbies to experienced OSM contributors. We will do an introduction about how to map and teach you how to edit OSM and work with the HOT Tasking Manager (http://tasks.hotosm.org/) on mapping tasks. All you need is a laptop, some spare time and enthusiasm for mapping.

There will be pizza and snacks! Thanks to Mapbox (http://mapbox.com/) for sponsoring us. :-)
