At FOSDEM 2026 Petya
Kangalova, a senior tech partnership and engagement manager for the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap
Team (HOT) spoke about how
the project helps people map their surroundings to assist in
disaster response and humanitarian aid. The project has
developed a stack of technology to help volunteers collectively map an
area and add in local knowledge metadata. "One of the core things
that we believe is that when we speak about disaster response or
people having access to data is that they really need accessible
technology that's free and open for anyone to use."
