Thank you to everyone using Rapid to map sidewalks in NYC. We're 46% of the way there. It's a large area, but we've made huge progress for pedestrians. tasks.mapwith.ai/projects/14…

🚨Urgent: The earthquake in Morocco has left a devastating impact, with over 2,900 lives lost & more than 5,500 injured. The numbers continue to rise, & many affected areas remain unmapped. Thank you to all mappers, validators, & donors who have supported this mapping project 📣
