UN Mappers is a community of mapping enthusiasts and contributors collaborating to collect, validate and disseminate geospatial open data in areas where the United Nations carry field operations. Our goal is to support decision-making process with more accurate location-based data. UN Mappers is part of the UN Maps, an initiative aiming at enriching topographic and operational data in UN missions and providing peacekeeping and humanitarian actors with better topographic maps, operational geo-information, search and navigation tools, and imagery and street-level base maps. Through this initiative, the Department of Operational Support (DOS) of the United Nations helps countries torn by conflict to create the necessary conditions for lasting peace.
Building upon previous initiatives in which the main objective was the production of topographic maps, the United Nations Global Service Centre (UNGSC), the United Nations Geospatial Information Section in New York, and three peacekeeping missions - UNSOS, MONUSCO, and MINUSCA - established in August 2019 the foundation of this new and wider global initiative.
