Mappy Holidays from the OpenStreetMap US team!
What a year! Thank you for being part of the OSM community. 2024 has been an important year of growth for OSM US. Catch the year's highlights in this blog post!
If you are looking for a meaningful way to give back to the OSM US community this holiday season, we encourage you to invest in our work by becoming a member or by making an end-of-year gift. Your support strengthens the capacity of OSM US to advocate, educate, build community, and improve accessibility to open data through OpenStreetMap.
Cheers!
