Hi list:
I contact you to get feedback about the first of a series of imports
that UN Mappers [1] are preparing at UNGSC [2] in Brindisi as part of
the Unite Maps Initiative [3].
This import consists of around 108,000 km of waterways (rivers, streams,
canals, etc.) in the southern part of Somalia coming from the
geodatabase of the UN Support Office in Somalia (UNSOS) [4], that would
vastly improve the hydrographic coverage of the map of Somalia.
You can check the draft import wiki here:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Edvac/Wikis/SomaliaWaterwaysImportWiki
A practical wiki showing the detailed import workflow is on progress
[5]. When finished, it will be quite similar to this wiki [6].
As you can see, it is intended to be a crowdsourced import using the
Tasking Manager, where experienced users will be welcome to the mapping
effort and to the validation of the import process.
Any comments/questions/issues/etc will be most welcome!
Have a nice weekend,
Rafael.
