Monday Mapping Meetup - 9/17
Jim Craner
MapTogether (nonprofit/community mapping project) is hosting a "Monday
Mapping Meetup" this Monday, September 19th in Chicago at -- where else?
-- the Map Room!
This is a free informal and coffee-laced gathering for NPO and community
group staff interested in learning more about community mapmaking.
We'll look at free and user-friendly tools and data sources - like
Google Maps, US Census Datasets, and GeoCommons - that other groups are
using to build powerful online "mapplications" in their neighborhoods
and cities. Bring a laptop (optional) and your map-related questions
and ideas!
Although this event is free, we're asking all attendees to buy a coffee,
juice, and/or bagel to thank the Map Room for graciously hosting our
meetup! Map Room is at 1949 N. Hoyne. a short walk east of the Armitage
Blue Line stop; bike parking is available. Questions?

Hope to see you next week!
