OpenStreetMap has become an essential tool for understanding the world, especially in regions where commercial and governmental data are limited. At TomTom, we believe that the best maps are made together. In this session, I will share how TomTom is working hand-in-hand with OSM communities across Africa to build high-quality, up-to-date, and inclusive maps that serve both local needs and global technologies.
I am a Geomatic Engineer with over 10 years of experience in the geospatial field. Currently, I serve as the Community and Partnership Manager for Africa & the Middle East at TomTom, where I lead strategic collaborations with OpenStreetMap communities and local partners to enrich and localize map data across the region. My work bridges advanced geospatial technology with grassroots engagement, driving smarter, more inclusive mapping and contributing to sustainable development across diverse contexts.
