Of course! However, sometime in the last 24 hours we passed the 2 million map changes point – and 1800+ mappers, and giving individual feedback is one grand challenge – getting that data in a ‘very useful’ state is another.
I’ll just quickly plug that the name of our Validation Activator role course is “HOT Validation: Fixing the data and Mappers <http://courses.hotosm.org/course/view.php?id=11> ” Also, we’ve been at it over a week now; make sure to take breaks and if you need ‘back-up’, let us know. =Russ From: hyan...@gmail.com [mailto:hyan...@gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, April 24, 2016 11:57 AM To: john whelan Cc: HOT Subject: Re: [HOT] Mapping in Ecuador - validation John, I feel you are right with your point to coaching mappers, a way to do this is through comments in the task. For lucky or common practice, must of Mapathons has been carry out with students. I will share with Telegram chats about this idea to do the following. Principal validations focus is on the ways and his state.

We also have a standing offer from KLL to have some staffers focus on validation. These are great ideas, I don't want to lose them, so can we get them onto the Trello?

Has anyone looked at using existing OSM tools, outside of the Tasking Manager to do large scale road network validation? The one that comes to mind is GeoFabrik's OSM Inspector: http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/ Which even has a 'routing' selection in the pop down to focus on problems that affect routing. Are there other tools that would help with this? Could we map roulette getting roads that end near each other connected properly?
