  1. Until your new OSM account gets rate-limited, that is 😄 Apparently that just happens at every Mapathon with beginners, no way around it. We did MapSwipe as we waited - also great, I foresee a lot of swiping in my near future.

    This week is a bit crazy for me and I was questioning myself when I signed up for this, but absolutely no regrets, I really had fun. 2/2

  2. I attended a cool event yesterday, a "Mapathon" for the Missing Maps project (missingmaps.org/). We learned about Missing Maps, about Medicins Sans Frontieres and their activities in South Sudan (which we would be mapping), how to pick up a mapping task at HOT Task Manager (tasks.hotosm.org/), and finally how to work in JOSM. Pretty easy when someone walks you through it, and honestly a fun activity. 1/2

  3. Ran a fun Palestine Open Maps mapathon yesterday with Yara Sa'di-Ibraheem. She's researching communications infrastructure in Palestine during the British colonial era, so we extracted the telecom infrastructure in the historical maps using the Tasking Manager, based on Yara's paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.polgeo.2024.

    We got a lot of work done! Blue squares are the ones that have been worked on. There's a long way to go, but good progress.

  15. Tonight, we had a great for the countries, organised by , @unesco & . Thanks to all participants in Delft, Ghent, Antwerp, Paris & online! :osm: :technologist_f:

  16. 13 years ago I made my first commit on @openstreetmap and have now more than 600 commits. This is of course a modest effort but still interesting to reflect on the places I visited and #hotosm datasets I have assisted in... It's not so difficult to do, #osmandapp makes it very easy to add POI etc. #map #osm

  17. In a #sotm2022 presentations, #hotosm shared that two of Asia's top, community-led, open (geo)data mapping conferences is happening in the #Philippines next quarter.

    The #Philippines' #PistaNgMapa conference is co-hosting #sotmAsia this November in Legazpi City, Bicol.

  18. Last night's #WeMap session had ~37 participants not just from the #Philippines but also folks from#Australia, #Mexico and #NewZealand.

    Thank you to everyone who made the session possible, especially those who contributed during #MapaTime and validated data in #Pampanga, for the local #HOTOSM #MAPampanga campaign to create better #OpenData for disaster preparedness.

    Dacal pung salamat (thank you) to all participants, volunteers, and crew from the local #OSMph and other map-py friends
