Hi all, A major Swaziland malaria spraying opportunity is coming up and the folks from the Malaria Elimination Initiative (MEI) within the Global Health Group at the University of California, San Francisco are asking that we help them with the final section of Swaziland that has not been mapped yet to aid in their program planning.
We have laid out 7 Tasking Manager projects to get this accomplished, 2 of which are almost complete. The HOT Community has already mapped 2/3's of Swaziland (wow, thank you!) and this final section is needed to complete a full country wide building footprint map. If you can find some time this week and next to help us get this final section completed, you will be part of an amazing effort to map all of Swaziland in such a sort time to help them eliminate malaria in 2016. They are very close to their goal and building footprints help their efforts greatly, aiding them to precisely plan their spraying and net distribution campaigns over large land areas efficiently and comprehensively among other uses. But now it is about planning, and the building footprints are one of their best tools for that. So please, join with the MEI folks, volunteers and other public health pros who will be mapping along with you all this week and next to get this last section done. (It is that important.) http://tasks.hotosm.org/?search=swaziland And please help spread the word: https://twitter.com/hotosm/status/750424852394151936 Regards, Blake _______________________________________________ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
