Sorry, I did not specify the new tasking manager job,
This is http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/572 The job for the Kailahun district needs also some more care to be completed. http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/568 Pierre ________________________________ De : Pierre Béland <pierz...@yahoo.fr> À : HOT Discussion list <hot@openstreetmap.org> Envoyé le : Lundi 30 juin 2014 14h01 Objet : Ebola Outbreak Activation : The point With the resurgence of the Ebola outbreak, both MSF and WHO have warned about the risk of the spread of the epidemy with the multiplication of sites of infection. There are difficulties, notably in the forests of Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia, in identifying cases, tracing the point of contact and delivering the message to the population about the infection. There will be an internatioanl conference this week to make the point about the situation. Both the Red Cross and MSF are deploying actually in Sierra Leone where various sites of infection have been identified. There will be again a CartONG GIS specialist on the ground. This should faciliate the interface with HOT about priorities to map. As new imagery is available, we will create new jobs. You can contribute to this new Tasking manager job covering the zone from Koidu to Gueckedou. It is also important to follow this mapping progress with validating the data and correcting road classification. For the road data to be effective for road navigation, it would be important that some experienced mappers take the responsability to revise the highway classification according to the https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa wiki page. This Overpass query facilitates importing highway data in JOSM for review of the classification. It imports both highway=track and highway=road for review. see http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/40c Note that we should not tag highways based on the condition of the road. A highway interconnecting villages should be tagged as tertiaray, Highways ending to various hamlets are taggged as unclassified. Track highways should be reserved for roads going out of villages in surrounding forests and farmlands.
