[HOT] Video that Best Represents Our Work?

2014-10-20 Thread Kate Chapman
Hi All, Is there a video you think best represents our work? Most videos seem to focus on one project or are a talk at a conference. Do we have anything that is less specific? Thanks, -Kate -- Kate Chapman Executive Director email: kate.chap...@hotosm.org U.S. mobile: +1 703 673 8834 Indonesia

Hi John, There are a few videos out there, but I don't know of too many recent ones. You are right a simple screencast showing how to map a building for example would be really helpful. I made some videos in 2010 about mapping from imagery in Haiti and people really enjoyed them. Having updated o

So the fantasy would be a simple screen cast video using something like HOT task 690 http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/690 since it uses the high resolution satellite imagery, Kevin Bullock's presentation http://vimeo.com/91880883 covers why this type is best to work from, the interesting bit starts

Hi Ray, Thank you for the kind words. My only comment is that learning JOSM will be much easier than you think. The nice thing about JOSM is that you do not need to learn very much at all to get started using it effectively. http://learnosm.org/en/beginner/start-josm/ is a great learning sit
