Collaborative Mapping

Collaborative mapping is a process where multiple people or organizations work together to create and update detailed maps of an area. Using digital tools and shared data, contributors can add information such as roads, landmarks, or infrastructure, often in real-time. This approach combines local knowledge and expertise to produce accurate, comprehensive maps that benefit communities, governments, and businesses. It's commonly used in projects like disaster response, urban planning, and open data initiatives, enabling a collective effort to improve geographic information for all users.
