Good Day,

I’m Pierre Edwin See Tiong of Junior Philippine Computer Society – FEU Tech 
(JPCS – FEU Tech) a recognize student organization in FEU Institute of 
Technology, and currently we are affiliated to YouthMappers Community as 
YouthMappers Chapter here in the Philippines. We’re in the finalization of our 
upcoming mapping activity in Marcelo Green Village, Parañaque on June 13 (for 
field mapping) and June 16 (for remote mapping and osm id editor workshop).

Our activity will most likely focus in correcting the names of streets, 
business buildings, landmarks, and other inputs in the OSM that are needed to 
update. The team will also integrate the World Cleanup Day project in the 
activity, which is to map all trash points in the area.

The target participants for the field mapping and remote mapping (which will be 
a workshop for OSM ID Editor) will be the coverage barangay in Marcelo Green 
Village, also with some other student leaders of FEU Institute of Technology. 
The activity will only accommodate 20 participants.

Our goal in this activity is to bring awareness to the local government units 
and other communities that simple mapping and/or having an updated map in their 
hand can help them to efficiently plan a projects for their community, also in 
case of calamities and/or emergencies. Also by using the WCD Mobile app, to 
locate all waste sites that are needed for an immediate cleanup action within 
their community.

The team of JPCS YouthMappers is consist of 4 active YouthMappers students who 
already joined some mapping party and field mapping using field papers, the 
team will help and guide the volunteers/participants in using the field papers 
and in the workshop on June 16.

JPCS YouthMappers are in partner with MiAmore Home Care in Parañaque for this 
activity, we’re also contacting the barangay officials in Marcelo Green Village 
to discuss the activity and have some volunteers from them to participate, 
knowing that they have the local knowledge in the area to that can help other 
volunteers/participants coming from our Campus. We are currently requesting for 
a final meeting with them this coming Sunday if there are available barangay 
officials or tanods to participate for the activity.


Thank You,
