Recently, collaborative mapping has become a fundamental part in the production and democratization of the access to geographic data. Maps with open, editable and accessible data can be an important tool to support actions related to a territory. The purpose of this article is to present the potentials and challenges of collaborative mapping activities made in-person and compare them with collaborative mapping activities carried out entirely in a virtual form, due to the social isolation caused by the pandemic of Covid-19. We report teaching and extended learning experiences composed of training and collaborative mapping efforts with OpenStreetMap to map the municipality of Rio Branco - Acre. As a result of virtual collaborative mapping efforts, volunteers added new geographic objects to the map, offering a base map for actions as logistical decisions or first responders before, during or after the pandemic. On the other hand, we verified that technological infrastructure as internet connection and familiarity with information technology still represent a great challenge for volunteers.
