Public Domain Map
Public Domain Map is a bridge database that lets organizations crowdsource authoritative map data in cases where OpenStreetMap isn’t an option. Mappers can address public data gaps while producing high quality data that is format- and license-compatible with OSM.
North Carolina Emergency Management Pilot
In our second Public Domain Map pilot, OpenStreetMap US is partnering with North Carolina Emergency Management to refresh building footprints in Cumberland County. Volunteer mappers can help improve public safety by contributing directly to the government data creation process. The data will also be made available for use in OpenStreetMap.
