What is it? Mapathons are events where a bunch of people get together to map for impact. This means looking closely at satellite imagery on laptops to carefully draw objects that can be seen like buildings or roads. This new data can then be used by humanitarian organizations to support their operations.
Where will we be mapping? We will be working on a high-priority project - to be confirmed closer to date!
What do I need? Bring a laptop, a mouse and enthusiasm (a mouse is not absolutely necessary but it makes mapping much faster).
Where is it? TomTom, De Ruijterkade 154, 1011 AC Amsterdam
