  <title><![CDATA[These Volunteers Are Filling in Missing Pieces of the World Map, and Helping Humanity at the Same Time]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Mariel Borowitz, assistant professor in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs, was quoted in the article &quot;These volunteers are filling in missing pieces of the world map, and helping humanity at the same time&quot; in the May 26, 2020 issue of <em>Popular Science</em>. The article highlights a Wikimedia of cartography that is pulling data from satellites to calculate snow depths for skiers, assist emergency responders, and more.</p>

<p>Excerpt:</p>

<blockquote>
<p>Borowitz has questions, though, about how privacy protections will evolve. &ldquo;I can imagine when you have ubiquitous data, your ability to track individuals or specific individual movements increases,&rdquo; she says. The rub for watching the whole world change is that you are part of that world.</p>
