Mapping Party at East Fort

Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India
Gandhi Park, East Fort

30th May 17:00 – 18:00

East Fort is one of the busiest places in Thiruvananthapuram. But on OpenStreetMap, East Fort barely exists.

Free Software User Group, Thiruvananthapuram is organising a mapping party to map all the points of interests (POIs) around East Fort. We invite everyone to attend, use and contribute to OpenStreetMap.

Date: Saturday, May 30
Time: 5 PM to 6 PM
Place: Gandhi Park, East Fort, Thiruvananthapuram

What are we doing?

Add all the shops and POIs around East Fort to OpenStreetMap. Get to know fellow mappers (optional). Have fun and eat snacks or dinner after mapping (also optional).

Can I join?

Of course! We welcome everyone, including people who haven't heard of OpenStreetMap to this mapping party. Seasoned mappers will help you onboard OSM and guide you if needed (no mansplaining).
