The North American Cartographic Information Society annual meeting was in Minneapolis in October 2015!
Maptime MSP built a map to welcome our cartographic brothers and sisters and provide them with a map of some of our favorite places to eat, drink, and visit. And, in the process, we learned how to create web maps and use distributed version control (Git/Github) to collaborate on a project.
The primary motivations for this project were to:
- Create a mobile-friendly map of favorite local spots for NACIS 2015.
- Provide a vehicle for new people to learn how to use Github.
- Collaborate on a useful project as a Maptime chapter.
You can find a lot more info about the project on our wiki!
Check out the poster we submitted to the map gallery explaining the project!
