In Spring 2019, Mapillary and Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) invited teams to use street-level imagery to accelerate critical map data collection for humanitarian challenges. The teams were working towards a chance to be awarded a fully-funded trip to the HOT Summit in Heidelberg, Germany, to present the results in front of the international humanitarian mapping community.

The name 2020 comes from the area between 20ºN and 20ºS of the equator which accounts for a significant portion of the land where we are missing maps. 2020 also represents the year which provides us with a milestone to work towards with the objective being extensive imagery and map data in a few of these locations around the world.
