Open to everyone whether you are already an active member of the openstreetmap community or just curious to find out more about the project. Have a go at mapping (e.g. with a pencil & a printout), or just come along and join us in the pub!
OpenStreetMap is a project to create a map released with an open content license. It's created by people like you. We need your help!
On the Evening of Monday 17th August we'll be heading to Brick Lane and aiming to gather gather some map information in the area. At around 8p.m. we'll meet up in the Vibe Bar on brick lane.
We will hopefully grab a table outside in the tent bit. Look out for people with GPS units/maps, or funky white OSM baseball caps. Also make a note of this: Contact: Shaun McDonald 07879610632
Before that though, we'll be arriving in the area at around 6:30 to do some mapping. If you're interested in joining in with that, check the website details
