My name is Jonathan Brier. I map to make a more open map for all, but I'm also interested in some research questions that benefit from the openness. I'm a PhD student in Information Studies at the University of Maryland and map in my limited spare time. Generally I can be found via the pseudonym: wolfgang8741

I'm particularly interested in linking to Wikidata and Wikipedia for semantic linking. wolfgang8741 (en)

My current mapping focus:

Bodies of water in Michigan and linking them to Wikidata and GNIS.

Trying to learn:

What the data and controls are as well as how to development with OSM data for use in enhancing various platforms for citizen science.
