Disaster Mapping: Hurricane Matthew

The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) has activated and is currently responding to Hurricane Matthew, you can read more about this important work here

For Maptime this week, we’ll help work on the top tasks for Hurricane Matthew: http://tasks.hotosm.org/

New to OpenStreetMap? Perfect! Experienced in humanitarian mapping? Perfect!

This will be an interactive, hands-on Mapathon, so please bring a computer to participate. Beginners welcome!

To learn more about remote tracing in OpenStreetMap, see the [remote tracing guide here] (http://learnosm.org/en/coordination/remote-tracing/)

A guide for tonight

Look forward to seeing everybody Wednesday!

PS: Some people really enjoy using a separate, external mouse instead of a trackpad for this type of work, so consider bringing one if you have one!
