Organised Editing/Activities/Updating and mapping schools in Poland
Updating and mapping schools in Poland
A campaign aimed at verifying and updating school data in Poland, including assigning reference numbers (rspo) and contact details for each facility.
Rationale
After the reform of education, many schools changed the form in which they operate. At the same time, many of them have no contact details entered, and hardly any links to the official school register system. We want to unify it.
Contact
If you have any questions, it is best to contact the initiator and project coordinator wlodzimierz.bartczak@openstreetmap.pl. Changeset comments are recommended in case of problem with a specific mapper
Community Consultation
We contacted the community using the following communication channels:
- https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=70084
- Discord (Polish OSMP server)
Hashtag
We've asked our contributors to use the hashtag #school_osmp with their edits.
