What is it?

The aim of the Missing Maps Project is to map the most crisis-prone parts of the developing world. With your help we can directly improve the lives of some of the planet’s most vulnerable people.

The Missing Maps project / Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) January London mapathon has been confirmed for Tuesday 5th of January 2016.

Both beginners and experienced mappers are welcome to join this mapathon, please choose your ticket according to your level of mapping skills.

Where will we be mapping?

We will be mapping South Kivu in Congo (DRC) as part of a province-wide mapping project. Field mapping will begin, using the data that you create, in early 2016.

We will also be building mapping in Swaziland to assist in a malaria eradication programme; a collaboration between HOT and the University of California, San Francisco.

What do I need?

Just a laptop (you must bring your own with you ), a mouse and enthusiasm (mouse isn't absolutely necessary but makes the mapping A LOT faster).

Where is it?

This month we're very kindly hosted by Linklaters LLP, 1 Silk Street, London EC2Y 8HQ. Click the map below to see the venue on OpenStreetMap.
