OpenStreetMap Mapping Evening in Brixton May 28, 2008

OpenStreetMap (http://openstreetmap.org) is an editable map of the whole world, which is being built largely from scratch using GPS traces, and released with an open content license.

Anyone can get involved in editing and adding to the map of any area, but this event is a coordinated effort to improve the map coverage around Brixton (South London). We'll be surveying the streets to gather street names and other information, and then later meeting up in a pub for a little social gathering.

The advertised start time is 5:30, meeting at Brixton tube station, but it doesn't really matter if you come along later. We'll be meeting in a pub at around 8pm. The pub is called "The Landor Theatre" a pub on the corner of Landor Road and Willington Road

Everyone's very welcome to come along, have a go at mapping some streets and/or meet us in the pub.
