Wow!!!!I am the First Girl Child to Map in OSM Nigeria,Anyone else !!!?Thanks to #UnqueMappersTeam
Posted by Chidera Nkwocha on 18 August 2018 in English.I guess I am the first girl child to map from OSM Nigeria community and else where.Its fun and exciting to map with mapswipe,identifying buildings in zambia on a satellite imagery.I needed a phone from uncle victor to play games,and he actually gave me to do so.But later,he mentioned that the phone is used for mapping,I became eager to learn .I got into it and discovered it was like a game giving me scores for good swipes made.I mapped and scored …. The next day I joined uncle Victor to the office where UniqueMappersTeam members were mapping and i could not see myself being idle ,watching while they map.Maybe,If I map,uncle victor would give me a phone or get me shawama.So i watched the video on how to map,and watched Blessing mapped and she helped me to learn how to map,then .I started mapping carefully,using her OSM account. Later,when Blessing Oshoma left,Emmanuella wanted me to continue mapping using her OSM account and I said no,I need my own account created and wow ,she helped to create an acount for me and there I go mapping on OSM!!! Any one there,,,,,,,in high school junior mapping on OSM in Nigeria and else where..? I want to know,otherwise,I guess I am the first girl child of 9 years of age to join this community to map for people in need.Thanks to mum for giving me the opportunity to spend my summer vacation in Port Harcourt with uncle Victor,the team coordinator of UniqueMappersTeam,Nigeria As I go back to Owerri today ,I am going to share with mum and others about UniqueMappersTeam and OSM.And I will also share with my fellow students as I resume for Junior secondary school,class-1 Thanks to Uncle Victor,Aunty Onyi,Blessing,Emmanuella and UniqueMappersTeam for giving exciting time this holiday period.
