Make Your Mark on the Free World Map!
Join me at Gangplank's offices Saturday December 6 and Sunday December 7 from 11:00am-4:00pm for an OpenStreetMap Mapping Party where we'll get more of the things you want added to the map of Phoenix! Since OpenStreetMap is both free and Free, 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. At the end of the day we'll show you how to get that data into OpenStreetMap so you can begin mapping your community's bikeways, hiking trails, park paths and anything else you choose!
