Re: [talk-ph] Increasing demand for OSM talks and workshops
Hi All, I just wanted to mention if you see ways that HOT can help please let us know. I think all of the ideas suggested so far have possibilities. How would you all from the OSM-ph community feel about HOT hosting some trainings? We typically haven't done much on the ground work in the Philippines because the community is so strong. Currently we don't have any firm plans to do such things (we would need funding to assist us in travel and other costs), but it is a possibility. We of course would inquire here first if any such thing happened.

It defintely works for Slideshows and QA - I've done a few of them on Online Security topics.

Re: [talk-ph] Increasing demand for OSM talks and workshops
Hi All, We have faced similar challenged in Indonesia. Typically with our trainings someone runs the powerpoint and talks at the front but then we have other trainers around the trainees looking for problems and providing help. There are also times we break into small groups. The small groups can sometimes be limited by the lack of a way to show everyone the instructors screen though. Typically we try to use two projectors (I know a luxury) one shows the slides on the topic and the other walks people through what to actual click.

But after the lecture is over, a few people would approach the lecturer and then ask questions. This kind of interaction would be hard to do online. Point taken about the reticence of audiences here. I've held a few meetings here myself where its really hard to get input ... which has been the whole purpose of the meeting! But I think the group chat might actually encourage this. People actually seem to get braver when they're not putting their hand up in a roomful of people. Basically as the presenter is demonstrating something, questions appear in the group chat, and the presenter can address them when its convenient. It actually seems to work quite well. There are also options to send private messages by email which can be addressed in the QA session. How do you think doing remote training where an in person connection has already been made? For example if participants had taken part in a one or two day beginner class, but then could remotely receive follow-up training? Perhaps having the initial face to face would help. Best, -Kate Anyway, just something to consider, and I'm just bouncing the idea around.

Re: [talk-ph] Humanitarian (HOT) map style on the main map
Hi Eugene, Actually a lot of the items in the HOT style are pretty generic and not specific to HOT. For example the style zooms down to level 20, so in areas that are very dense you can visualize more of the points of interest. One thing I'm interested in is seeing if there are ways to make the style more universal. Meaning the focus for this style was a project in Haiti and it has been tested a bit in parts of Africa. Are there features or icons that would make it more universal? For example we were discussing how a hamburger icon for fast food isn't necessarily obvious to everyone.

Check it out here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=9/14.5317/121.0281layers=H According to HOT, this map style focuses on the developing countries with an emphasis on features related to development and humanitarian work. And that this style is interesting since it has good contrasting style in terms of overall colour choices and shows many new/different icons (particularly for basic amenities in developing countries) and more nuanced surface tracktype rendering. As far as I know, there's not so much use of HOT-specific tagging in the Philippines so this style is not that much useful. Still, it's a welcome addition to the Standard, Cycle Map, Transport Map, and MapQuest Open layers.
