Introduction

Hi I’m Daniel, an active contributor to OpenStreetMap in the Tri-State region. I live in Valley Stream, NY in the Town of Hempstead. I am currently involved in mapping New York’s bus stops and building footprints in Nassau County. I use cycling as my preferred mode of transportation and sometimes try to photo map my routes with Mapillary. The bulk of my contributions come from the mobile app OSMAnd and I am interested in adding addresses in Nassau County.

My Current Mapping Initiatives

You should reach out if you:

1. Are mapping Queens and/or Nassau counties and want to collaborate on a project
2. Want Nassau County buildings/addresses to be on OpenStreetMap and would like to hash out a campaign push to Nassau County government
3. Organize a Field Papers mapping event in a NYC/Long Island neighborhood with poor OpenStreetMap coverage
