The Linux Users' Group of Davis presents:

The OpenStreetMap Project

Steve Coast, Founder
OpenStreetMap Foundation

OpenStreetMap.org (OSM) is a map of the world which anyone can edit, where the data is given away freely. Much like Wikipedia allows the collaborative creation of an encyclopedia, OSM allows users to trace aerial imagery or use GPS units to create geometry. That geometry is then "tagged" with key/value pairs such as highway:motorway and name:Baker Street.

This event is free and open to the public!
