About MapTogether

About MapTogether:

Maps tell powerful stories about the communities and the world in which we live.  Maps are a visualization tool, a way to help us transform columns of data into useful knowledge about the people and places around us. 

The MapTogether project provides free map-related training and tools for community and nonprofit groups around the world.  Resources include software, data sets, online mapping services, documentation, and training resources.  We are also available for private consultation and training as well as full-scale GIS application development and hosting.

MapTogether is led by Jim Craner.
