Using OSM Data to Make Decisions and Solve Problems

Objectives

Why are we running this workshop? YouthMappers runs community mapping events around the world. Esri has collaborated with YouthMappers on some, and in this case would like to introduce a few novelties: taking your community (OSM) data to the next level in terms of analysis, exploring vector basemap data, and creating StoryMaps.

  • learn some new free tools 📔
  • have fun! ✌️
