Summary:

"This blog is part of the event report series on International Open Data Day 2018. On Saturday 3 March, groups from around the world organised over 400 events to celebrate, promote and spread the use of open data. 45 events received additional support through the Open Knowledge International mini-grants scheme, funded by Hivos, SPARC, Mapbox, the Hewlett Foundation and the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office. The events in this blog were supported through the mini-grants scheme under the Open Mapping theme: the blog has been jointly written by Transparência Hackday Portugal / Open Knowledge Portugal  and Open Knowledge Finland .

Open Data Day 2018 was devoted to open mapping in both Porto and Helsinki. Both Open Knowledge branches involved in the organization of the event invited the local communities to talk about OpenStreetMap (OSM): how to use the data and how to contribute to the project...."
