Hi Elisabeth,
Welcome on the list! That's great news that you'll be mapping with students
in Beni! Are you planning to work directly with OSM database or with your
own?
If you can't find GPS devices before departure, let me know via which
cities you'll be travelling in September: Kinshasa? Goma? There are several
organisations which could potentially lend you a few GPS units if your data
can help them in their mission afterwards. It will of course depend on the
availability of their devices at that time, but it can be an option to
consider.
All the best!
Claire
