Geography Awareness Week 2014 takes place 16 - 22 November 2014.
For basic information about GAW, visit National Geographic's web page here. This year's theme is "The Future of Food", so please add your ideas for food-centric events using OpenStreetMap.
Suggested activities include mapping groceries, farmers markets, community gardens, food distribution centers, identification of food deserts (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_desert) both domestically and internationally. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT http://hot.openstreetmap.org/) and US State Dept’s Mapgive (http://mapgive.state.gov/) might offer additional opportunities for contributing.
Sterling Quinn has jump-started the mapping process with both a tagging scheme over on the Food_security as well as his presentation from State of the Map-US 2014. Both of these are useful starting points for hosting a mapping event.
