I hope you're all well.
Open Data Day starts tomorrow! Today there are 230+ events registered on the site and dozens of new people have joined the list in recent weeks - welcome to you all! There's still time to register your events on the website, as the map won't be closed during next week.
This email is just to remind you of a few things to help promote your activities:
We'd be delighted if you'd like to share photos and reports of the local events you're promoting or taking part in, so we can create a shared 2024 album.

We hope that ODD24 will be amazing for everyone!

Hi Lucas,
This activity ran for 3 days. On Day 1, we introduced open mapping using OpenStreetMap and learned about the needs of people with disabilities in public transport. Therefore, it can be proven that the participants were very enthusiastic about asking questions and taking part in the activities, with one of them even winning a door prize. On Day 2, we conducted field surveys to assess bus stops along the Trans Metro Pasundan (TMP) corridor no.4 and rated tactile paving in Bandung. On the last day, we processed and entered field data into OSM using iD Editor and Wikipedia.
From this event, we are honored to participate in Open Data Day 2024. Many thanks to Humanitarian OpenStreetMap (HOT) and the Open Data Knowledge Foundation (OKFN) for their invaluable sponsorship."
We are pleased to share our #ODD24 event from Bandung. That's right, from March 2-4, we successfully held an open mapping event with friends from the Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. Besides that, we also invited friends with disabilities to promote inclusivity and encourage the #OpenDataForSDGs goal for more equality in city development. The theme of our activity is: “Bus-friendly: mapping participation guiding blocks & halt for equality of public transportation users and engaging disabled voices”.

to Open Data Day
Austin, TX US celebrated Open Data Day on Saturday, March 9. The event was sponsored by Open Austin <www.open-austin.org>. It ran all afternoon. 49 people attended. The event opened with welcoming remarks from Austin mayor pro tem Leslie Pool. Then we had presentations from City of Austin staff, data scientists from the University of Texas at Austin, and the community. Finally we broke out into five groups and collaboratively hacked on various datasets. The event was a success, and we look forward to advancing local open data initiatives.
