“OpenStreetMap Foundation’s community-driven approach helps keep the map of the world as accurate as possible. As map lovers and builders ourselves, we are excited to help support the OSMF mission” --Yennie Solheim, @nianticlabs
#OSM benefits when the companies who use its data support the project through Corporate Memberships. In 2024, 8 new companies joined and 5 increased their giving.
First, long-time members @esri, @meta and @msft have joined @tomtom at the Platinum giving level. Thank you!
Also good news: 5 new companies are now supporting #osm at the Silver giving level! @NianticLabs @qgis @calimotoApp @mapy_cz and @ioki_mobility. Welcome!
#GIS #FOSS4G #mobility #locationservices
Even more good news: E–SMART (https://esmartcontrol.com/) and LANDCLAN (https://landclan.com/ ) are new joiners at the Bronze level. We are also grateful that @interline_io and @VersoWearable both upgraded their membership from Supporter to Bronze.
Happy International Women's Day!
#OpenStreetMap is about taking control of our maps from the small, centralized organisations, and giving the maps & the data to the people. Many of these closed mapmakers re-enforce patriarchy, and are dominated by men.
With OSM, women can take control of maps! ✊ ♀️
