Hi all Marikina mappers, So sorry, something important came up, I will not be able to make it on the 9am gathering at Bluewave mall. I might just be able to catch up with some of you while gathering POIs at around 11am but I would more surely be there at SM Marikina during the data editing and tutorials.
As of this time I am preparing a list of "Points Of Attractions" of Marikina so maybe some of the volunteers may want to seek and map them. Also, maybe some can add other points on the list which are worth mapping. I will try to email the list late tonight. ed On Fri, Mar 19, 2010 at 11:06 AM, maning sambale <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com > wrote: > Hi, > > We're all set for the mapping party tomorrow: > > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Philippines/Mapping_Party/Marikina > > At least 13 people confirmed.
