High school students are employed as community data scientists. We train youth to apply scientific method and mobile technology to capture data about all the public-facing businesses and organizations serving their community. MAPSCorps provides the first paid employment experience for half of participating youth. Our data boost local economies by making sure every public-facing business and organization is on the map. We've mapped more than 25,000 businesses and organizations in Chicago and New York City.
