Sponsors

For transparency, here is a short overview of sponsors to MapComplete. This ties in closely to the history of the project as well.

Current sponsors

There is a Liberapay.

NL-Net is currently sponsoring Pietervdvn as well for specific improvements.

Historical sponsors

The following organisations ordered a theme to Pieter Vander Vennet and thus sponsored the project. As these projects are finished, they have no relation with the project anymore.

Most recent projects are first:

Brussels Mobility (OSOC 2020)

When the first version of Buurtnatuur.be was online, Brussels Mobility sponsored an Open Summer of Code Project, resulting in the cyclofix theme. The codebase was refactored in order to support multiple themes just before the start of OSOC.

Belgian Green Party (2020)

The first version of what would later become 'MapComplete' was financed by the Belgian Green Party. With the Corona-lockdown in full swing, they wanted to do something with nature and green spaces near people, maybe inventorizing all parks, forests and nature reserves.

The original website can still be visited, the oldest version still online.
