Event Details

MappingDC will hold an OpenStreetMap mapping party on January 10th (tentatively 10 am – 3pm), focusing on the National Mall area and East/West Potomac Park areas, along with surrounding neighborhoods.

We will be meeting at the Cosi cafe at the corner of 10th & E St NW, across the street from the J. Edgar Hoover FBI building and a block north of Pennsylvania Avenue. (near both the Gallery Pl-Chinatown and Metro Center stations)

To take part in the mapping party, you do not need a GPS. We will have some to lend out, and GPS is only one way of collection. We also use walking papers, which are simply low-tech printouts of the OSM map that we mark up with details when out walking around.  After collecting some data, we will spend time uploading the data to OSM, with more experienced mappers demonstrating how it's done.
