Bellamy Park in Dover NH has a disc golf course in the woods. Very little of it seems to be on OpenStreetMap:

Here's how it looks:

For this meetup, we'll add what we can to make it come alive on the map. We'll add the elements of the disc golf course to the map directly from our phones. If we identify paths through the woods, we will record GPS traces and add them to the map later from our laptops.

This event will be a bit more coordinated than previous events, and may be less friendly to beginners, though beginners are still welcome. Please take a look at the preparation section below.

**Agenda**

This is a rough schedule. We can adjust if we want to spend more or less time mapping etc.

16:00 Meet in the parking lot. Wait 10 minutes for arrivals. If you RSVP'd and are running late, please leave a comment. We'll try to find each other.
16:10 Mapping in the park
18:00 Go to North Country Hard Cider to hang out and add things to the map via laptop

**Preparation**

For disc golf:

You'll need a full featured OSM editor. For Android, get **Vespucci** ([Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.blau.android) or [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=de.blau.android)). For iOS, get **Go Map!!** ([App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/id592990211)). Create an OpenStreetMap.org account and log into your app.

For trails:

Firstly, you'll need an app that can create GPS traces and export in the GPX format. If you have an app that you already like for this, great! Otherwise I recommend **OsmAnd** (only because I'm familiar with it). Visit [https://osmand.net/](https://osmand.net/) for Android and iOS links. (It's also available on [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.osmand.plus/)). The UI for this app is complicated so I can walk you through it. If you want to take a [look at how tracing works](https://osmand.net/docs/user/plugins/trip-recording) ahead of time you can, but I'm not sure all of these instructions are necessary.

Secondly, I invite you to bring your **laptop** for use at North Country Hard Cider afterwards. Either be logged into your OpenStreetMap.org account, or have your username and password ready. I can take you through using the web based OSM editor to turn your GPX trace into a trail. Otherwise, you can look into it yourself and I can be available to answer questions.

**Bonus**

If someone brings the equipment, maybe we sneak in one or two holes of disc golf! (I actually know nothing about this game so you'll have to teach us)
