Program Description

Event Details

In this workshop, students will learn how satellite images, collected by various agencies around the world, can be used to help global humanity. Platforms like OpenStreetMap and the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team Tasking Manager offer an opportunity for volunteers (such as the participants at TechGirlz), who are not necessarily experts in coding or interpreting this information, to contribute to critical missions. (Free account with OpenStreetMap required.)
