Announcing our first mapathon
We have our first sidewalk mapathon on the books! NC Clear Path will be the speaker at Code for Durham tomorrow night. We’d love to see you there!
Code for Durham Mapathon
Come join us for a mapathon night!
NC Clear Path will provide training on how to map sidewalks - NO coding or mapping experience required! Just bring yourself, your laptop, and an external mouse if you have one.
We’ll learn
- why Google Maps is frustrating for people with limited mobility,
- the open source solutions to this problem, and
- how we can all help people navigate our cities more easily.
