Research on a similar initiative like Mapset
Some research has already been made, and messages sent out to a few OSM Community mailing lists but Please mention activities or projects where sport has been used as full or part of the main activities.
About
An initiative to engage passionate mappers, sports lovers and open data enthusiasts to use tools, like OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia, and Wikimedia Projects so that they can be used in new and innovative ways as found suitable in their areas of interest and communities.
Collaboration rather than duplication
Mapset will be providing training and capacity building to its members in usage and applicability of the above tools, plus other programs, but priority to provide the training will be given to existing organisations, communities and individuals in Uganda or outside Uganda.
Conflict of Interest
Open Data and Open Source can spur innovation and solutions to community challenges, there are quite a number of individuals and organisations who use and make open source what it is, with no limits, no restrictions, which provides a gateway to innovation, and removal of any kinds of barriers to entry.
To ensure that there is no conflict of interest, please see comments below, and feel free to reach out or add comments;
- Collaboration will ensure there is no conflict of interest.
- More activities for MapSet will be based on previous research initiatives and results from above.
- Organisations that do similar or related activities will be approached and invited to join efforts with MapSet.
- Please mention your views on how any other conflicts of interest can happen.
Logo Competition
A logo has already been selected, and various samples will be published here, however, in the future, a logo competition for this initiative, could be planned, with some of the following information

soccerthon october
The 5th soccerthon to be held at kawempe kataka ground on 31st october2018. soccerthon participantskawempe(october)
previous soccerthon blog kawempe
Soccerthon is a monthly mapping event which is organized by Mapset members. The team leader specifies a certainsoccer club which is a partner to Mapset in order to contribute match requirements to the selected club to host the event, at a particular time the club is therefore given the money after presenting a budget.
This time Kawempe United hosted the event. Kawempe United is a first division soccer club in Kawempe division its home ground stadium is located at Kawempe Kutano.
Soccerthon creates awareness of Mapset objectives, for example, training open data, capacity building, and mapping tools to the community, which can definitely improve one`s standards of living. the hosting team was able to present a team of 15 players including the head coach. while Mapset members were 13 and due to super league fixture some members had super league games and were not able to attend the event.
The day before, we had an OpenStreetMap training at Kawempe building plaza. I was able to introduce ID editor to members, opened up Emails Open Street Map accounts participants were; Mayas, Ronnie, and Allan and trained for about two hours, tracing buildings using id editor and at the end of the day all members were able to map correctly using ID editor.
The match started around 4:30 pm. And went fine as it was expected, both teams played an interesting game that went 1-1 full time.
The community welcomed the concept of mapping and promised to work hand in hand with Mapset to train and promote talents in Kawempe division.
After the match we were able to register three new members; Bosingwa, Ronnie, and Moszy in the team.
November event is likely to be hosted in Kawanda by Kawanda united.in the last week of the month and the date will be notified.

Data and Mapping
These are some of the [tags and data (model)] that will be based on for usage. The sport=* tag is used to identify one or more sports which can be played within or on some physical feature. A list of sports is given below.
A sport=* should normally also be associated with a suitable physical feature where it is performed; often this is leisure=pitch or leisure=track although other surfaces or features are sometimes appropriate, for example natural=beach for swimming. A leisure=sports_centre may be associated with a number of sports. Where individual sports are played at distinct identifiable places then identify the sport with the particular pitch etc. Where a number of sports are associated with a single feature then separate the sports with a ';', for example 'athletics;football'.
Primary sports facilities
- leisure=sports_centre - several sports on a terrain or under one roof
- leisure=stadium - a stadium
- leisure=track - race track (athletics, cycling, horse_racing, ...)
- leisure=pitch - playing field, can also be in a building
- leisure=horse_riding - equestrian facility, riding centre
- leisure=swimming_pool (swimming, gymnastics, ...)
- landuse=recreation_ground
Specific sports facilities
In these facilities the sport=* should not be used, since it is already stated what kind of sport.
