Creating Your Own Participatory Mapping Project: A Guide

This tutorial helps geographers to create their own participatory mapping project. It offers a map demo and a detailed instruction on how to create it. This map demo enables its users to contribute their local knowledge by clicking on a map, inputting their information, and viewing their input represented as a red dot. Existing contributions can also be viewed in a similar manner on the map. While this minimum viable map only offers essential functionality, it can be tailored or expanded to suit different participatory mapping initiatives. This approach can be particularly beneficial for digital geographers who want to kick-start their own participatory mapping projects.
