Local Chapters are country-level or region-level not-for-profit legal entities representing the area's OSM mappers and OSM data when dealing with local government, business, and media. They are recognised by the OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF), allowing them to use the [[Trademark_Policy#1.1._The_.E2.80.9COSM_marks.E2.80.9D|OpenStreetMap marks]], and each can have a representative on the OpenStreetMap Foundation's [[Advisory_Board|Advisory Board]]. There are no thematic local chapters at the moment.
