The idea is to provide an opportunity for local people from all
different disciplines, skill sets, experiences, and perspectives to talk
geo and maps. <br></p><p>I think that this will be a great opportunity for the local OSGEO community to reach a wider audience, and show off the cool things that you are doing with open geospatial.<br></p><p>After the TC OSGeo meeting, Bitner, Kari, and I were talking about how the creation of a Maptime chapter could help us reach more people. In the meantime, Taylor Long and Liz Puhl came back from NACIS and started a local chapter! Kari, David, and I are working with them to pull a group together.<br></p><p> Meetings will have different formats. Some will
have presentations, others will be working/hack meetings. The first meeting
will likely be focused on learning to edit Openstreetmap. </p><p> Join the Meetup group and start following us at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FMaptimeMSP&h=aAQFevkqi&enc=AZM1wxY0PIhGg6tsODRXjWvJdRw90DMKCrbpob-Mc69a-couFrvgvENiTAGTw60sJuQ4IUmMMULKNBbIvj7HrvIjvxarEZBswIFml1P8jfdTdpa2U_5jIM7ifLuA-u31cp7Oj21kLFxi0MwWis3JSksxtypzQUuv_1kvgjfa0rW-mw&s=1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/MaptimeMSP</a> Watch for an announcement for our first meeting.</p></div></div>
