Additional Information / Shotlist SCRIPT

We all take maps for granted, but many places in the world are still not mapped.

Since 2014, Missing Maps has responded to this need by putting roads, buildings and even entire villages on the map. But there’s still more work to do...

And you can help! In just a few easy steps, KoBo for Missing Maps gives you the tools to put places on the map.

First, download the KoBo Collect app / and connect to the server.

Then choose one of the four ready-to-use forms. From health facilities, points of interest – such as schools, markets and pharmacies – to villages and water points.

Now you’re ready to start.

When you’re at the location, open a blank form. Swipe across to select where you are.
The app will ask for your current location. It’s important to be outside to get the best signal.

Once the accuracy of the location is less than 20 metres, you can select ‘Save GeoPoint’.

Name the location and swipe through to fill in your data. You can also add notes and upload a photo.

When you’re done, save the form and exit.

No internet? No problem! Just send the forms when you’re connected. It’s that easy.

Your data will be added to OpenStreetMap by Missing Maps volunteers, so it can be seen and used by anyone anywhere!

By putting places on the map, you're putting people on the map.
