We’ve got some exciting news for our community: the public beta launch of our new Crowdmap product is now just two weeks away!  

products

Crowdmap is re-launching on May 6th as an entirely new, hosted service for mapping anything on the web, focused on a more social mapping experience with better support for multimedia, sharing, and mobile support. All of this built on top of a new, robust API that means developers can create not just plugins but entire applications for endless ways to interact with each other. We invite you to join us on this mapping journey. For the past month, beta testers have been playing with the new tool to help us improve this service. Software development began a year ago and our internal team has been tinkering with it for months. Your current Crowdmap.com deployment(s) will continue to function as it always have. All current features, logins, users, data, and especially the URL -- none of this will be lost or made unavailable to you and your users in the transition to our new product. You will also retain the ability to manage these deployments under what we’ll be calling “Crowdmap Classic.” Please stay tuned for more! Leading up to the official launch, we’ll be providing more information about the new product and the transition between Crowdmap and Crowdmap Classic, including the following meetups to speak directly with the Crowdmap team: We’re all very excited to see what you do with this new service. For more information about the upcoming launch, please visit the new Crowdmap website. If you have any questions, please read through the FAQs on our wiki or don’t hesitate send us an email at support at crowdmap dot com and we’ll get back to you. Brian, Evan, and the Ushahidi team
