OpenStreetMap Tempe Mapping Party

Make Your "Second" Mark on the Free World Map!

Join us as we co-host our second Mapping Party with James Fee and RSP Architects! We'll get more of the things/places you want added to the map of Phoenix! Since there are no restrictions on the geodata in OpenStreetMap you can do really cool things with the data. (check out www.opencyclemap.org and www.openrouteservice.org for examples). At the party we'll loan you a GPS unit and show you how to use it so you can then go out and map a section of the city. Or, we'll introduce you to the map's online editor, Potlatch (think Armchair Mapping), you can use aerial imagery to add missing features to the map. At the end of the day, we'll show those who went out with GPS units how to get that data into OpenStreetMap. Either way, you can begin mapping your community's bikeways, hiking trails, park paths and anything else you choose!
