Port City Makerspace
⚙️ Come to Port City Makerspace in Portsmouth NH to learn about OpenStreetMap and get hands-on with map editing. If you're an OSM expert and would like to come and help with Q/A it would be great too! Suggested donation to Port City for events is $10, but any amount is okay and welcome. You can drop money in the donation boxes at the shop. Learn more here: https://www.portcitymakerspace.com/
🧑🎓 Dan will give a quick presentation about what OSM is all about and how it works. If you'd like a quick preview, check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Phwrgb16oEM
☀️ If the forecast is good: After the presentation we'll walk around the West End of Portsmouth to add some businesses, home addresses, bike parking, etc from our phones.
🌧️ If the forecast is not so good: Plan to bring a laptop (and I'd recommend an external mouse)! We can add some buildings and roads using the web based editor.
🕛 Plan to spend two or three hours, between presentation, setup, and editing.
📱 Preparation: Please sign up for an openstreetmap.org account ahead of time, and bring your username and password!
