OpenStreetMap (and OpenSpending) pub meet-up & mapping October 4, 2011

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 Tue 4th October we'll be heading to Euston/Kings X area and aiming to gather some map information in the area. At around 7:30p.m. we'll meet up in The Betjeman Arms in St Pancras station

This time we're having a special open data themed pub meet-up and sharing the same venue with the guys from OpenSpending (folks from Open knowledge Foundation) So that's two great projects to find out more about!

When you get there, you may find us standing outside, or hidden right at the back of the pub. Look out for people with orange hi vis OpenStreetMap jackets, or an OpenStreetMap sign. Also make a note of this: Contact: Harry Wood O7979815O13

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.

We usually get about 10/15 people coming (more than signed up here)
