Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Summit 2021
About this event
JOIN US TO EXPLORE THE EVOLUTION OF LOCAL HUMANITARIAN MAPPING ECOSYSTEMS
On November 22, 2021, HOT will host a global community meeting. The entire humanitarian OpenStreetMap community is welcome to come together to showcase projects, discuss and share ideas, and better understand community, collaboration, and contribution. Join us to hear about this evolution, where we’ve come from, and where we’re going!
What is the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Summit?
Now in its seventh year, the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Summit brings together people from around the world working to make open geographic data available to improve the places they live and work through OpenStreetMap.
Sessions will be a mix of truly interactive discussions, debates, and lightning talks, with plenty of space and time for meeting fellow humanitarian OpenStreetMap community members, hacking, talking, and collaborating.
Should I attend?
Whether you’re a humanitarian or development professional, community builder, educator, geographer, journalist, philanthropist, software developer, volunteer mapper, or want to learn more about open data and OpenStreetMap and it’s applications in development and disaster interventions–you’re invited and welcome!
Where will the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Summit be?
This year’s Summit will be held on the virtual event platform, Hopin, on November 22, 2021 across three time zones, similar in format to the 2020 virtual Summit. More details coming soon!
