Workshop Schedule Details

Workshops will be much shorter than last raid, about 30 minutes. Following the overview, we'll have mentors available to do optional hour-long breakout sessions for hands-on experience and/or answering questions.

We may add more as the day goes on, but here's the current schedule (all times EDT/UTC-0400):

12:00 noon - 1:30pm: Basemap Triage 101 -- when everything in the map is a total mess, this class will cover what should be worked and in what order.

4:30pm - 6:00pm: Functional Classification -- the system by which roads are marked as streets, freeways, and everything in between. This topic was covered in a workshop during last raid, but as it's such a critical topic, we're going to cover it again

10-11:30pm: Extensions/scripts, places/routing -- learn the key tools to help editors do their job, and learn how place objects can be used to improve routing to destinations
