      Much of the world’s population still lacks access to up-to-date geographic data, including maps,  and is also poorly represented in its creation. The result is less accurate and less representative map data that excludes critical local knowledge and features needed to effectively address development challenges and catalyze equitable growth.

      Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and its partners have developed a responsible, AI assisted mapping workflow that enables anyone, but especially communities in vulnerable countries, to create and use geospatial data, with user friendly, free and open source tools that are fit for local context.
