We may be used to using digital maps in our everyday life, but they form an essential tool for humanitarian response. Unfortunately, vast regions of the Earth still lack accurate information, especially those in rural, developing regions. A group of mapping volunteers are now working to close those gaps and help aid get to where it is needed.
