Hi All,
Our colleagues at Columbia are holding this important event next week:
—
Columbia’s Group for Experimental Methods in the Humanities & Columbia University Libraries ask you to join us for:
PUERTO RICO MAPATHON
for Hurricane Relief
September 29, 2017 | 2PM-5PM | Studio@Butler (208B)
Come help with relief efforts on the ground in Puerto Rico by contributing your time to open-source mapping.
Following the recent hurricane, people around the world are using the OpenStreetMap platform to give their time to hurricane relief efforts. The Red Cross in Puerto Rico has requested two tasks we can help with for their relief efforts. During the mapathon, we will teach people how to help with these efforts through mapping, and we will map together.
No mapping experience necessary. No knowledge of local terrain is necessary. Come any time during the afternoon.
Please bring your laptop & RSVP to agil@columbia.edu (especially if you’re coming from outside Columbia)
