OSM Field Mapping: Via Italia

Join us for a community field mapping event where we will use the Every Door and StreetComplete apps to enhance OpenStreetMap! Whether you're a seasoned mapper or a beginner, this event is a great opportunity to contribute to one of the world's most comprehensive open-source maps.

Meet in front of St. Angela Merici church, and together we'll explore Via Italia, using these intuitive tools to add and update information on local businesses, amenities, street details, and more.

Help us improve the accuracy and richness of OpenStreetMap while exploring and documenting Windsor's Little Italy. No previous experience with OSM, geodata, or mapping required - just bring your data-enabled smart device, walking shoes, and sense of adventure! (and maybe a water bottle)
