MAPPING PARTY WITH DISTRICT WALKING TOUR 19:00?21:00 ON THE 31ST OF MAY
WITH MANUELA SCHMIDT
This mapping party will begin with a short introduction on OpenStreetMap, underlining the importance and usefulness of a free/open source geographic data and geographic information system. Then, participants will go on a walking tour in the local area (near Miss Baltazar?s Laboratory) using Field Papers to validate, add, or change existing geographic data. After the tour, there will be a practical demonstration about how to upload the data and how to edit OpenStreetMap.
No previous experience of mapping is required, nor is possession of a GPS or smart phone. The district tour is open to all genders. The mapping party is FLT-only (frauen, lesben, trans only). The event will be led by Manuela Schmidt.
