As a student of geography in the university of Port Harcourt I was tasked to map an area in the North of Nigeria Sabon Birni which has a high vulnerability to flooding, this will help to get the right people with supplies to this area if a flooding event occur, and will decrease the fatality of such disasters in the affected areas

Hello All!

I made my first edit to the map in 2016 when I discovered OpenStreetMap through a Maptime group which I now organize. I guiltily admit I was unaware membership was an option for some time and didn’t officially join until a little over a year ago. Although I have few changesets to my name (most come from demos while I’m teaching others), I’m an enthusiastic supporter of OSM because I understand the immense potential of this project.

I work in an academic library on an urban campus as geospatial support for students and faculty. Through my position at the University of Colorado Denver, and through the MaptimeMileHigh meetup group I run, I spend much of my time introducing OpenStreetMap to interested mappers and data users. I have led HOTOSM mapathons for students and the community at large to introduce the humanitarian value of this unique crowd-sourced information. I enjoy seeing traditional GIS students get excited when they realize there is an entire world of the geospatial technology they’ve been missing.

Serving on the OpenStreetMap-US board, I hope to expand the awareness of OSM to students, faculty and community leaders as they work together using public data for public good. Through academic frameworks such as the Data to Policy Project (d2p), for which I’m the student and faculty liaison, OSM can shine as support for policy development. With more diverse contributors to the map recruited via community outreach and academic programs similar to d2p, OSM can be better used for research and evidence-based advocacy. With more people from different sectors of society understanding they can contribute data to the global dataset that is OSM, the more representative and complete that dataset will be.

Leider nicht so gut ausgebaut die Wanderkarte in diesem Gebiet. Oder gibt es so wenige Wanderwege in diesem Gebiet? Wäre schön, wenn die Wanderwege dort mehrere eingezeichnet würden. Es ist soooo ein schönes Gebiet in den Stein-Fels -Bergen mit Grünen Matten und viele Alpen. Danke für mehrere Wanderwege einträge.
