The weather outside is icy! We have decided to cancel today’s mapping event. Please stay inside and safe. However if you would still like to do some mapping below are some great videos to get you started.
- https://mapgive.state.gov/why-map/
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy0YovjrMXk&feature=youtu.be (the last few mins is a repeat of earlier in the video)
Here are some suggested tasks from the folks at Missing Maps (otherwise choose your own project at tasks.hotosm.org):
- http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/2381
- http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/2298
- http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/2280
If you do decide to map, send me an email about what you mapped and where and how it went amylogan@iastate.edu. Also when you save your edits put in the following identifier: #2017iowaviewmlkmapping .
Also if there is interest we may try to hold another mapathon during spring break or on a weekend. Please let me know if you are interested and suggest a time that works well for you.
Thanks!
