OpenStreetMap Seattle would like to extend an invitation to State of the
Map US 2016 <http://stateofthemap.us/>. The annual State of the Map US
conference is the preeminent gathering of OpenStreetMap enthusiasts and
will be held in Seattle, Washington from July 23rd to 25th, 2016. There
will be a lot to do to make this conference a smashing success, and we need
a team of reliable volunteers to help pull it off.
What: State of the Map US 2016 conference. This year's theme is "Building
Community", and volunteering will provide an excellent entry point to
connect with the diverse and dynamic OpenStreetMap community.
Where: Seattle University, Seattle, Washington
When: July 23-25, 2016
Why: Volunteer 3 hours per day in exchange for free registration!
Attending State of the Map US offers many opportunities to connect with
other mappers, learn how to work with OpenStreetMap data, and hack on the
latest OpenStreetMap improvements. This would be a great networking
opportunity to connect with other OpenStreetMap users from an amazing
ecosystem of enthusiast mappers, businesses, government agencies, and non
profits, all collaborating around the free and editable map of the world.
How: Apply to be a conference volunteer by filling out the SOTM-US
volunteer form
<https://docs.google.com/a/openstreetmap.us/forms/d/15NDVh1Sc8iXJTDmVxV3i_lUgJIVQhCHP1ECsc0TA1sY/viewform>.
If selected, you will be asked to participate in a virtual training session
one week prior to the conference. In exchange for your agreement to
volunteer, we will send you a registration code to get your free
registration for SOTM US 2016.
Deadline: Thursday, June 16 at 11:59 pm PST.
Note on accommodations: inexpensive lodging is available on-site at Seattle
University.
Please let us know if you have any questions: volunteers(a)openstreetmap.us
We look forward to seeing you there!
Sincerely,
Joel Masselink
State of the Map US Volunteer Coordinator
