Become a member of OpenStreetMap US!
OpenStreetMap US thrives because of our members! We strive to serve a growing number of citizens who engage with their world through OpenStreetMap.

“The US community has been super supportive and helpful when I was a newbie. There's so much to learn, I wanted to share back with something other than just my edits.”
