As a GIS Specialist at Temple University Libraries, I collaborated with Courtney Berne on this story map for her doctoral research. We visualized Philadelphia's century-long Black horsemanship tradition, focusing on Fletcher Street Urban Riding Club. Check out the story map: fletcherststorymap.com
Next week, we're hosting our first-ever Mapathon at the Charles Library! Join us and contribute to mapping Philadelphia on OpenStreetMap, the world's largest open-source mapping platform.
Come be part of a global community effort to enhance digital maps that everyone can freely use.
Next week, we will be exploring several ways to use open data from global sources such as OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps in QGIS. It is an online and free workshop.
