OSM Chennai Mapping Party

Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India
Sri Balajee Bhavan, Pondy Bazar, Sir Thyagaraya Rd

19th April 16:00 – 19:00

Inviting all people of Chennai to come and discover the wonderful world of OpenStreetMap!

A mapping party is an opportunity for everyone to learn about OpenStreetMap, why it is important, some simple ways of using it, and how to help improve OpenStreetMap data for the benefit of all.

It's also an opportunity for experienced OSM contributors to learn new apps, workflows, and how to contribute to related projects like Panoramax, Mangrove Reviews, and Wikimedia Commons.

All participants will meet at a cafe over drinks, and have a 60-minute learning session. Then, we will split up into teams and work together to improve the OSM data for a nearby market. Finally, we'll all regroup, conclude, and get some refreshments.

📱 All you need is an Android or iOS phone
(Android is preferred. Other suggestions - a power bank, a charging cable, and/or drinking water.)
🗓️ Date: Sunday, 19th of April
🕙 Time: 4 PM to 7 PM, followed by dinner
📌 Location: Sri Balajee Bhavan, Pondy Bazar, Sir Thyagaraya Road
