Snow was falling across much of the United States as folks logged on for OpenStreetMap US’s 6th annual virtual conference. Connecting with the OSM community to learn about ongoing mapping projects, new tech, and exciting applications of open data was the perfect way to spend a cold, gray weekend.

Read our recap of the weekend events and watch the talks here.
