The City of Chattanooga is having its second annual Outdoor Recreation Mapathon . This event is designed to bring together mappers, outdoor enthusiasts and local experts to create a free outdoor map of the city.
T he Mapathon will take place at the Philip Grymes Outdoor Chattanooga Center on Friday, September 26 from noon until 7:00pm. The center is located in Coolidge Park.
With Chattanooga being America's first National Park City, the city wants to make it easier for residents and visitors to find resources for outdoor amenities.
The city says much of this information is currently scattered across various platforms, which can make it difficult to find.
Everyone is welcome to partake in the event, regardless of experience level. It will feature mapping sessions and
