Mapping Party: GA Ave Great Streets Corridor

Come do some OpenStreetMapping and get to know a DC neighborhood at a 1:1 scale.

We're collaborating this month with Georgia Avenue Business Association and DC Great Streets (http://greatstreets.dc.gov/) program to map the Georgia Avenue corridor (Boundaries here) (http://ow.ly/AEd44). Businesses, schools, gardens, parks, playgrounds, local landmarks, infrastructure, other POIs.

No experience necessary; special encouragement for new mappers.

Where: Juanita E. Thornton/Shepherd Park Library (http://dclibrary.org/thornton), 7420 Georgia Avenue, NW, Conference Rm

When: 6 Sept, 10AM - 5PM, drop in anytime, stay as long as you like.

Bring: Laptop w/ WiFi connectivity, or something to take notes in the field. Curiosity, sense of wonder, a definite plus.

Planning Ahead: There are 11 corridors in DC Gov Great Streets (http://greatstreets.dc.gov/) program and this is our first which corridor should we do for an October event? Nominations, please?
