To celebrate the 13th anniversary of OpenStreetMap and Crowd2Map having mapped over 1.5 million buildings in rural Tanzania please join us in what we hope will be the biggest mapathon ever..
We will be mapping in many locations in Tanzania, UK, Lithuania, USA but mostly just individually or at small events.
The main event will be for the first 2 hours, but you can take part any time in the 24 hours to suit your time zone and convenience.
If you have used OpenStreetMap before please invite a few of your friends round and help them get started! At home or at work/college on Monday.
We will be mapping here http://bit.ly/MapTanzania but any point added in Tanzania with the tag #biggestmapathon in the 24 hour period from 11 am GMT on Sunday 13th August until Monday 14th August will count. We are aiming to beat 1500 mappers, the previous record.
Training will be given. We will be sharing tips, experiences and comments via a live link and there will be prizes!
Please join us to map rural Tanzania and to help protect girls from FGM.
