The image is very good and it does load slowly, but I appreciate having that 
kind of clarity. 

Just invalidated a number of tasks in the new projects. It might help if the 
instructions were written more clearly? People are joining buildings, drawing 
Residential Areas around groups of buildings inside of the city, and I can 
understand how they misread the instructions because of the way they are 
written. So we don’t have a lot of wasted time and energy, maybe someone could 
rewrite them so they are much more clear? 

Here are a few of the things I’ve commented on in both English and Spanish: 

Buildings must be individually mapped and can not touch. 
If a building touches another building there’s a gray node that must be 
detached. 
All buildings are buildings, not houses, industrial buildings, or casas. 
A city is a Residential Area. Don’t draw a Residential Area around a group of 
buildings in the city. Each building needs to be traced. 
Be sure to square all buildings. 
Zoom in to 40% to map buildings accurately. 
Although the buildings are dense, they should each have four walls. They can’t 
touch. 

All this could be written much better, but that gives an overview of what I”m 
seeing. Hopefully better instructions and good comments can get these things 
corrected and we won’t be wasting time ad man-hours. 

Onward!

Tyler,

Thanks!

Is anyone else having a problem with custom imagery drawing very slowly in iD?

Mike

We are planning a mapathon in Colorado US tonight.  Are there likely to be more 
Ecuador projects suitable for newer mappers? I am attempting to revise our 
instruction guide now.

Thanks,

Mike
