———————————————————————————————————————————————————

HERE: Who are you, where are you, and what do you do?

Fauzi: I am Fauzi Rachman and currently a student from the Faculty of Physics Engineering at Gadjah Mada University.

HERE: How did you become a HERE Map Master? 

Fauzi: I was born in Tasikmalaya, West Java. When I started in the community, the map coverage was very little, so I contributed a lot of information through HERE Map Creator. I think this was one of the reason why I was nominated and awarded a Map Master due to my active contributions.

HERE: Do you have any suggestion or tip for wannabe-Map Masters or aspire to eventually become a HERE Map Master?

Fauzi: As a Map Master, we need to be very active. However, active doesn’t mean we need to contribute a lot, rather we need to have a good sense of ownership of our neighborhood. Once we noticed any updates/changes, we will add those changes/updates via HERE Map Creator and share our best practices with the rest.

HERE: How were you introduced to the HERE Map and what was your first contribution?

Fauzi: I use Windows Phones (formerly known as Nokia Phones), so I definitely know about HERE Map. My first contribution was on geometry and point of interest around Tasikmalaya.

HERE: Do you participate in other mapping/community activities outside of the HERE Expert Community Program? If yes, please elaborate?

Fauzi: I am a research student from the Faculty of Physics Engineering at Gadjah Mada University. This community is focused on doing research and development which is related to my major.

HERE: Who has impressed you in the HERE Expert Community Program, and why?

Fauzi: Map Master Sanggi Rizki Paisal. He often shares tips and tricks, photos and his experience in the data collection process for the HERE Expert Community Program via social media.

HERE: What is your best experience so far being a Map Master and in the HERE Expert Community Program?    

Fauzi: Travelling to Jakarta last June was one of my best experience as I got to meet up with all the Map Masters in one place.

HERE: What are some of the areas of improvement which you would like to see in the HERE Expert Community Program?

Fauzi: Establishing a small local chapter of the HERE Expert Community program based on each region’s activity would be desirable.

HERE: Final words/your motto as a Map Master?

Fauzi: As a map master, one of the expectation is to be able to contribute more to the HERE Expert Community Program, and one of my target is to get more users to start contributing.
