Missing Maps Mapathon | January 10, 2020 | 6-8pm
The GIS Club & ASPRS PCC Student chapter will be hosting a Missing Maps Mapthon. The Red Cross's Missing Maps project aims to map the most vulnerable places in the world (affected by humanitarian crises: disease epidemics, conflict, natural disasters, poverty, environmental crises). Building on HOT's disaster preparedness projects, the Missing Maps tasks facilitate pre-emptive mapping of priority countries to better facilitate disaster response, medical activities and resource allocation when crises occur.
The Mapathon will give us 2 hours to map one of these areas and will be hosted by Chaelese Kailewa, PCC Student and Missing Maps Event Coordinator.
Please fill out the registration form below if you are interested in attending. The workshop will be held at PCC - Sylvania in the GIS Lab (SS 110). The lab is equipped with 28 desktop computers. If you prefer to work on a laptop, there is space for you to set it up and connect to PCC's wifi.
The first 30 people to respond will be registered for the event. After the first 30 people register, I will keep a wait list and if spaces open up you will be contacted.
Refreshments will be served. Thanks for your interest and hope to see you there!
