The Overture Maps Foundation has four tiers of membership to suit anyone wanting to join in the effort to build open map data. Participation in working groups is open, however we expect that members will be active contributors to open data, technology, development time, or financial resources that can be used to move faster. Greater levels of contribution gives participants more influence over the direction and priorities of the project and working groups.| Overture Maps Foundation
The Global Entity Reference System (GERS) is a framework that structures, encodes, and matches map data to a shared universal reference within Overture. GERS, coupled with Overture datasets, is a potential standard for identifying and referencing the physical and conceptual entities we've defined in our world, such as office buildings, grocery stores, forests, countries, rivers, museums, capitals of provinces, and mailing addresses.| docs.overturemaps.org
