Come out and map the world at the OpenStreetMap Mapping Party!
OpenStreetMap (OSM) is an open, crowd-sourced editable map of the world, including streets, buildings, trails, cultural landmarks and businesses -- and we can all contribute. There will be an introduction to contributing to OSM at 5pm, no previous experience with OSM required. You can also learn more about getting involved with OSM (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Getting_Involved) and create an account (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Creating_an_Account) to get ready to contribute. Once you create an account, you will be prompted to take a brief tutorial on OSM.
There will be pizza and snacks provided! Registration is required for UM participants (http://ttc.iss.lsa.umich.edu/ttc/sessions/gis-day-openstreetmap-mapping-party/) -- all others can just show up! Bring a laptop and get ready to map.
