GeoHackers maps their first heritage walk in Calicut. The map is here for the impatient!

Geohackers mapped the night heritage walk at the old city of Ahmedabad. We had Kiran of CIS, and Prof. H.S. Rai from Ludhiana to support us. The event was a part of the Second Maps for Making Change workshop held at National Institute of Design.
The first 'untouched by designer map' is listed here.

Fort Cochin is the earliest recorded settlement on the Malabar coast, with its beautiful colonial bungalow peppered with Dutch, Portuguese and Malabar architecture.The many small winding streets with lovely old houses is truly a treasure trove. Vasco Da Gama Square, Dutch Cemetery, Maritime Museum, Santa Cruz Basilica etc. The tourists are armed with a Cochin heritage walk route map, which is old and incomplete. The walk is long and has many adventures and awesome stuffs which someone would miss worthwhile including the narrow path lined with little fish stalls and the Chinese fishing nets on the sea beyond them.
GeoHackers have decided to map the entire walk, and tag it in a suitable way which would help the tourists flowing down to enjoy the essence of Fort Cochin. A good quality map of the region would be printed and put up on several parts of the entire walk. These maps would have overlay information regarding distance, time, must see places, quick tips, etc. Please pull in more suggestions using comments.

let's hack has it's inspiration from the let's work series initiated by fsug-calicut.

the first of the series began on 27th of may and concluded on 28th of may. a little bit of nostalgic fun is that, it's a night out event. we begin to work at 10 pm and continue till the next day morning 6 pm. now let's come to what we could achieve in let's hack - 1. the main objective was to understand data representation schemes in grass.

1. the different kinds of data representation schemes were identified and tested.
2. different kinds of data were manipulated.
