Map Club is a new effort created by OSM founder Steve Coast (@steveC) and aims to be a friendly and supportive community to help people get more involved and productive with OpenStreetMap. According to Steve in a recent Hangout with James Fee (@cageyjames) challenges are faced with OSM, in particular with addressing and navigation attributes and with getting the community more involved with adding useful information to help with these areas.
The following options for membership are currently available from the MapClub:
- Founding Member. For $4/month, access all map club services, starting with our mailing list of people like you.
- Founding Pro Member. For $9/month, access all map club services, starting with our mailing list of people like you. In addition, Pro members influence the direction of the club by voting on what is to be built and receive a club t-shirt!
- Founding Enterprise members are just like Pro members, for your entire organization.
