With the return of warm weather comes the return of everyone’s favourite OSM activity – Field Mapping!

Come with us as we wander along the streets of Ford City tagging benches, trees, potholes, and more. These interactive outdoor sessions are beginner-friendly and help to improve the data that runs apps like Strava, Pokemon Go!, and Apple Maps.
