Hi HOT!
A message out of Bangladesh, Pete and I are just back at the hotel after a very good first real mapping day! In the morning we did a presentation followed by a lot of explanations and after a little Field Paper exercise around Eastern University in the Dhanmundi area. In the afternoon, we talked about humanitarian mapping and went to Hazaribagh to really start mapping! So yes, this is really getting on! At this moment we are checking the already mapped data on OSM and will we create soon our Field Papers for tomorrow. Then installing the everyday updated osm file on OsmAnd on the 8 smartphones we have here (thank you Blake, Ben, Pierre, Michael, Claire! Btw. if you want to join this club behind the scenes, please ping me!) and put a grid of the FieldPapers as overlay on OsmAnd so we exactly can check where we are on the Fieldpaper during the mapping. So yes we are using what you mapped! It is even a major help to have stuff on the map! So it would be great if you could map a little more for us… The* most important* now is to have *a rough validation* of http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/833#task/51 to really kick out the biggest mess. Pleas start doing this in the North Eastern part, because this is the place we are going to map on Monday. Please keep also contributing to this task http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/838 ! And the other too, but that one is *less a priority * http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/831 By the way, Pete just put some pictures of today on twitter J https://twitter.com/pedrito1414/status/556477213453742080 https://twitter.com/pedrito1414/status/556477777734402048 Our best greetings!
