OpenStreetMap US: Connect 2020
Connect 2020 is a free, virtual event to celebrate OpenStreetMap and our community. The event will include an informal Mappy Hour Thursday evening, a scheduled ½ day of talks on Friday, and a day of workshops, birds of a feather sessions and mapathons on Saturday. We hope to make this an annual gathering that enables people from across the country to learn about OpenStreetMap and network with fellow mappers. Learn more at the Connect 2020 page.
