Day Recap & Geo Games: We wrapped up with a fun Kahoot quiz! ๐ Shoutout to our Stars of the Day two female and one male student for their outstanding performance! ๐
The early session is taking students through introduction to open mapping and Five W's about YouthMappers. All smiles as we welcome new students to the community! With their @openstreetmap usernames ready, this week is all about mapping for impact!
@youthmappers@TomTom@OMDTZ
Currently: @kiariro_ezekiel is training students on basic mapping using iD Editor on @openstreetmap. Exciting to see tasks getting locked as they practice to map missing buildings and roads in Igunga! A great way to prepare for a Mapathon tomorrow afternoon! ๐๐

Today was all about tackling map errors and improving @openstreetmap data accuracy with Map Roulette!
From fixing isolated roads to tagging features, weโre making OSM better, one task at a time!
Tomorrow, we celebrate Open Data Day with an exciting mapping competition.๐

Week 2 of industrial training organized by @Geotetanzania is here!
Hosted by OMDTZ & @RamaniAfrica, we've started strong with specialized drone training!
Students started with a brainstorming exercise, exploring potential drone applications based on their degree programs.
Day 1, Week 2: An electrifying session with @RamaniAfrica & @OMDTZ, diving deep into drone tech, mapping, and regulations! ๐โจ
From interactive discussions to live demos, students are now field-ready for tomorrow!

5 years ago today, I made my first @openstreetmap edit. Little did I know, I was signing up for a lifetime of zooming in on random corners of the world. Here's to 5 years of discovering new places... and sometimes getting lost in them! ๐
Happy holidays everyone ๐๐๐
