Gembloux will join the National Mapathon for the first time! This will be
on Wednesday. We could really use a volunteer there, as it is their first
time at that location. Send me a message if you're interested.

Hi all,

The registration page is up: https://mapathon2019.eventbrite.com
(it contains all the details)

We are still short of volunteers in Mons, Liège and Namur. Let me know if
you are willing to help out! The other location can always use an extra
hand too. Below the pages to register as a volunteer (or simply send me a
massage).

[OSM-talk-be] National Mapathon 2019

2019-02-15 Thread joost schouppe
Hi,

We're supporting the National Mapathon again!
This year, the events will be spread over three days, with most of them
during the week in the evening. There is no registration page for "normal
people" yet, but I've just put up some pages on Meetup to help find OSMbe
volunteers to help out at all the locations. For data quality, that is
essential. And it can be a lot of fun too!

On Wed. March 27th, there will be events at:
ULB (Brussels) - 18:00-21:00
UCL (Louvain-la-Neuve) - 18:00-21:00
KUL (Leuven) - 17:00-20:00
UMONS (Mons) - 18:00-21:00
https://www.meetup.com/OpenStreetMap-Belgium/events/258984672/

On Th. March 28th:
VUB (Brussels) - 18:00-21:00
ULiège (Liège) - 18:00-21:00
Unamur (Namur) - 18:00-21:00
UGent (Gent) - 18:00-21:0
https://www.meetup.com/OpenStreetMap-Belgium/events/258984694/

On the 30th, there will be events at:
UCL (Louvain-la-Neuve) - 10:00-13:00
ULiège (Liège) - 10:00-13:00
https://www.meetup.com/OpenStreetMap-Belgium/events/258984724/

You can also contact me directly if you want to help or just have some
questions.

[OSM-talk-be] national mapathon 2018

2018-02-18 Thread joost schouppe
Hi,

The third National Mapathon is coming up!
Eight universities across the countries will open their doors for some
humanitarian mapping. Last year, about 300 people showed up.

Of course, we want quality mapping, and we're counting on you to help them
do that. So we need volunteers at all the locations to walk around and keep
an eye on the quality. We'll need validators to watch as much data as
possible as soon as possible. And we need some people to be on the lookout
for possible future heavy mappers and organizers. Some of our current core
members were recruited at the previous events :)

Sign up for volunteering through the meetup page:
https://www.meetup.com/OpenStreetMap-Belgium/events/247922954/

To just come map with us, you'll be able to sign up through:
http://nationalmapathon2018.eventbrite.com
(site will be up in a few days)

[OSM-talk-be] national mapathon - thanks!

2017-04-19 Thread joost schouppe
Hi,

We've just sent out the thank-you mail to the participants of the National
Mapathon.

Thank you to all the volunteers who made it possible. Extra thanks to the
people who helped out with the tahnk-you message itself :)

Here it is:

http://mailchi.mp/d83cf7ff2f85/thanks-for-mapping-sierra-leone

Thanks to Tais, we know about 355 people joined in the mapping effort. He
made some pretty animated maps too:

https://github.com/tgrippa/Mapathon2017

A nice extra is that we got over 200 new contacts for our mailing list, so
we're now close to 700 contacts there. We even asked for permission this
time :)

[OSM-talk-be] national mapathon

2017-03-07 Thread joost schouppe
Hi,

As you know, we will be helping out the organization of the 2nd National
Mapathon, Saturday March 25th, in Mons, Namur, Liege, Louvain-la-Neuve,
Bruxelles, Brussel, Gent and Leuven.

While we have a volunteer at most places, we could still use your help. The
more experienced mappers can walk around and look what people are doing,
the better. Several of our current core members got involved or more active
through this mapathon. So see this as a chance to grow the mapping
community, not just a chance to help Missing Maps and MSF.

Also please spread the word through your networks and have them subscribe
through nationalmapathon.eventbrite.com . With two weeks left, we only have
50 subscriptions!

Even if you can't make it to one of the venues, remote help, especially for
validation would be extremely welcome.

[OSM-talk-be] national mapathon

2017-02-24 Thread joost schouppe
Hi,

The next National Mapathon is taking shape. We're still looking for
volunteers, though we have the situation under control. Especially for the
Walloon cities some extra help would be nice. Fortunately our Brussels
French Belgians and Belgians in France saved us from not having OSM Belgium
people at all the events.
Just send me or Jorieke a message if you can help out.

If you just want to come map, register now:
https://nationalmapathon.eventbrite.com

There's some more ways you can help:

* Help us write and translate an invitation to the mapathon, to send out to
our 450 contacts on the OSM Newsletter [1]

* Help us on how we can leverage this event to further grow the OSM Belgium
community [2] (thanks to Marc Bessieres for suggisting this)

* Help us make a good page about OSM Belgium Mapathon support (writing and
translating job) [3]

We're always looking for other help too, for example we could really use
someone who wants to build press contacts and the like. Fortunately we will
have the MSF machine behind us for this one.
