Our event series
The annual State of the Map US conference is the largest gathering of OpenStreetMap community members from across the country. Come meet the people who create, analyze, and use OpenStreetMap with several days of talks, workshops, and social events. It’s the best party in mapping.
Mapping USA is a virtual conference series run by OpenStreetMap US. It’s a super-accessible event featuring a few days of talks, workshops, mapping parties, networking, and all things OpenStreetMap. Attend from anywhere!
The OpenStreetMap US Mappy Hours are virtual hangouts for the U.S. community. We often have guest speakers and they are always an opportunity to meet fellow mappers and talk about OpenStreetMap.
OpenStreetMap Geography Awareness Week is an annual celebration of open mapping that takes place each November. OSM community members host in-person and virtual events to showcase the power of crowdsourced mapping and invite new mappers into the fold.
