Pokhara being one of the most popular visitor / tourist location of Nepal deserves its geographic information to be digitized and put in Google Maps. Yearly thousands of tourists visit Pokhara. We could guess about the times they tried Google Maps with expectations to get navigation directions. Not only tourists but all Nepalese who live/visit Pokhara will sure like seeing Google Maps of Pokhara improve. With this use case in mind, GDG Kathmandu is organizing an one day mapping event called MapUp Pokhara on Dec. 15th 2012. MapUp Pokhara won't have been thought of without extensive support from Sankalpa- "Committed for a Better Society". We are glad to have them as our co-organizers.
