Mapping party in Delhi

contrapunctus · 2020-02-23T12:21:11.000Z

Folks in Delhi interested in having a mapping party, please get in touch with me

We’ll use Vespucci, the Android OSM editor, to improve OSM coverage in the area we decide to meet. We’ll decide on a time and place which suits everyone.

If there are any first timers, we’ll help them with creating an OSM account, installing Vespucci, and getting started with their first edits…so get in touch with anyone you think would be interested!

You can respond here, PM me over osm.org, or (ideally) get in touch over XMPP - contrapunctus@jabber.fr

The 8th OSM Delhi mapping party is being held next weekend.

We’re hosting two parties this time - one covering a “rich” location (Nehru Place) and one a “poor” location (Laxmi Nagar) [1], with the aim of making OSM coverage more equitable. As a side effect, we also expect more people to be able to join us, due to the greater variety of timings and venues.

We encourage everyone to attend on both days, but you can choose to attend any one session, too.

Day 1 - 8th OSM Delhi Mapping Party - Day 1 | OpenStreetMap Calendar
Date - Saturday, 18th of May
Time - 08:00 to 10:00 hours
Location - Laxmi Nagar Metro Station

Day 2 - 8th OSM Delhi Mapping Party - Day 2 | OpenStreetMap Calendar
Date - Sunday, 19th of May
Time - 16:00 to 18:00 hours (4 to 6 PM)
Location - Nehru Place Metro Station

[1] Granted, it’s a little blurry in this case - Nehru Place isn’t exactly posh, nor is Laxmi Nagar the poorest area in Delhi…

To allow more people to attend, there are two sessions - one on Saturday and one on Sunday. We encourage everyone to attend on both days, but you can choose to attend any one session, too.

Date - Saturday, 15th of June
Time - 11 AM to 1 PM
Location - Software Freedom Law Center (India), Jangpura

Location - Internet Freedom Foundation, Chittaranjan Park

The 10th OpenStreetMap Delhi mapping party is taking place this Sunday!

We’ll avoid the humid weather by mapping in the comfort of an air-conditioned mall.

You don’t need any experience with OSM or maps to participate, so bring all your friends along!

Date - Sunday, 21st of July
Time - 3:30 PM to 6 PM
Location - V3S Mall, Nirman Vihar Metro Station (Blue Line)
