Check out some pictures from a mapathon in Nairobi organized by the local MSF International office. Over 2,000 buildings in Mangochi district, Malawi were added to #osm during the event! Mappers also got insights from a GIS specialist on how #osm data supports WASH activities. Thank you!

Having the right information at the right time can change the impact of a disaster... Organizations like MSF International and the Nigeria Red Cross (Nigerian Red Cross Society HQ) are using open map data to support the affected population of Maiduguri, Nigeria, after the terrible floods this past September.
