Let's get mappy!


** Welcome to Geoweek: *Tuesday* Georabble and a Saturday Mapathon!
------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Aust/NZ OSGeo,

I made a mistake in the previous email. Georabble is on Tuesday night!

It's geoweek, And we have at least two exciting events to go to! We have Georabble on Tuesday night at the Pig N Whistle (register here (https://openstreetmap.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f9d4c3db0d039ad4bed7a1489&id=fb48e46562&e=eccec8c654) ), and our OpenStreetMap Geoweek Mapathon on Saturday evening at Toowong Library (register here (https://openstreetmap.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f9d4c3db0d039ad4bed7a1489&id=6e6cb51946&e=eccec8c654) ).

I'd love to see you at both of these events, and I've left more details below about the Mapathon to entice you there, if you haven't already registered. It's looking like it'll be a bit quieter than last month, but it will still be a great time, with free pizza!

Quickly following on from the success of our First Ever Missing Maps Mapathon, we will be hosting a new Mapathon for OpenStreetMap Geoweek, at Toowong Library from 17:30 - 20:30 on Saturday the 18th of October.

Details below, please register at https://openstreetmap.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f9d4c3db0d039ad4bed7a1489&id=66f428bcf7&e=eccec8c654.

I hope to see you there, and please pass this message onto anyone who you think might be interested. Everyone is welcome!

------------------------------------------------------------

OSM Geoweek (https://openstreetmap.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f9d4c3db0d039ad4bed7a1489&id=035e7396d3&e=eccec8c654)  is trying to organise Mapathons across the world to help raise awareness of OpenStreetMap and Missing Maps, and the effect these projects can have on local communities across the world.

The aim of the Missing Maps Project (https://openstreetmap.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f9d4c3db0d039ad4bed7a1489&id=399f521db7&e=eccec8c654)  is to map the most crisis-prone parts of the developing world. With your help we can directly improve the lives of some of the planet’s most vulnerable people. Both beginners and experienced mappers are welcome to join this mapathon, please choose your ticket according to your level of mapping skills.


** Where will we be mapping?
------------------------------------------------------------

We will be mapping high priority tasks from the HOT Tasking Manager (https://openstreetmap.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f9d4c3db0d039ad4bed7a1489&id=3c0f37288a&e=eccec8c654) .


** What do I need?
------------------------------------------------------------

Just a laptop (please bring your own with you), a mouse and enthusiasm (mouse isn't absolutely necessary but makes the mapping A LOT faster).


** Where is it?
------------------------------------------------------------

Once again, we're very kindly hosted by the Toowong Library, located in Toowong Village Shopping Centre at 9 Sherwood Rd, Toowong, or https://openstreetmap.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f9d4c3db0d039ad4bed7a1489&id=86cd6b876e&e=eccec8c654 in OpenStreetMap.
