Starting pre-iPhone in 2008, OpenLitterMap was inspired by the open values of OpenStreetMap to become its real-time data collection layer.
Litter & plastic pollution are the first applications of our technology.
Simply take a photo, upload it, and tag what you see in the image.
You can use this to map anything:
- brands
- products
- materials
- large or small quantities
- bags of litter
- individual cigarette butts
- overflowing bins
- dumping
- your positive environmental impact
- sticky floors
- team effort
- and a lot more.
Keep the map open to see live updates.
All code and data is available open source.
By doing the work, users earn Littercoin - a non-tradable zero waste climate currency that can only be spent with participating green-listed stakeholders.
Have fun!
