MaptimePDX!
Flux - Plastic Fantastics

Come join your fellow geo nerds for some map hacking, geographic learning, beer drinking, and conversation having! MaptimePDX is a brand new, map-focused hack and learn event, modeled after the hugely successful weekly San Francisco meetup, MaptimeSF.

At our first hack day, we will be working through an exercise to edit and contribute to collaborative geographic datasets using GitHub and geojson.io. There will also be a table for folks to come and hack on and talk about their own projects with others!

This inaugural MaptimePDX event is being held in conjunction with WhereCampPDX 6, an unconference for all things geospatial.

Beginners especially welcome! Bring a laptop if you can. See you there!
