Mapping the venue

The swiss OpenStreetMap community have already conducted three special on-the-ground surveys of the area around the CICG building (Fr. Centre International de Conférence de Genève), which is here, close to numerous United Nations agencies.

Looking great on the OKCON website!

This area of Geneva is our priority now. We plan to make this whole district completely addressable via verification surveys during summer months before the conference.

OpenStreetMap sessions

There most probably will be some. TODO: add details/plans/ideas here

I will work as a volunteer at the conference. It is confirmed. --Alex-7
