Hi John. What Kate asking about is video that can represent HOT activities in general.
But about the training: HOT in Indonesia create a series of training video based on LearnOSM.org material: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRqMbcsT9ummMvByc1BlsDQ We are going to add English subtitles using Closed Caption feature on YouTube. We also have the video transcript if anyone wants to translate it into other language. Replacing original audio into other language also possible (dubbing) I don't know about specific video about how to draw buildings (especially in Africa), maybe someone interested to make one? :) *Kind Regards,Emir Hartato* On Tue, Oct 21, 2014 at 7:59 AM, john whelan <jwhelan0...@gmail.com> wrote: > Talking of videos are there any training videos about what HOT expects? > > The reason I ask is that although we break down to give tasks can we break > it down even more. ie teach someone to do a simple task of map a building > using high resolution satellite imagery, sounds dumb but map one in JOSM, q > it to square it, tag it building=yes, select, <Crtl>c move the mouse to > another <crtl>v, adjust the four corners, q again etc. > > The concept is we can teach people to map buildings on You-tube, its > simple and has value. > > Another would teach people how to recognise a road and to tag it or > highway=path. > > We may need expertise to map things like water bodies, rivers, streams and > forests but buildings and footpaths in Africa are probably 80% of what > needs to be mapped and you don't need a degree in GIS to do this.
