Re: [HOT] Mapa Inundaciones La Plata

I’ve put it up. The JOSM URL is
http://pnorman.dev.openstreetmap.org/imagery/plata_apr_2013/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.j
peg
http://pnorman.dev.openstreetmap.org/imagery/plata_apr_2013/%7bzoom%7d/%7bx
%7d/%7by%7d.jpeg 

 

It goes south to General Belgrano and north across the water into Uruguay.

 

I’ll add it to the JOSM, P2 and iD lists tomorrow.

 

Technical details:

 

I did this as JPEG tiles for speed reasons. I also made use of the Terralook
shapefiles for clipping, which wasn’t entirely successful because there are
some small black gaps.

You have to go through glovis (http://glovis.usgs.gov/) and order it from
the Terralook ASTER collection. It comes as a geojpeg. I have some shell
scripts that make the merging easier.  Because it comes from Terralook we
get no choice of the bands.

 

I should have it up as a TMS layer tonight.

 

Landsat 8 will make this much easier, covering every point on Earth (except
some polar regions) every 16 days and with images 2-3x as wide per pass.

Paul,

Please do!, that would be really great.
Is there a link for the full res geotiff?

Thanks
Fernando.

It’s ASTER imagery which is fine. If someone is interested I can download
and host the full res original geotiff (from the Terralook ASTER
collection), which will also be correctly georeferenced. It would then be
available as a background layer in JOSM, P2 or iD.

Manuel, Severin

There is some NASA imagery, Oscar put this together:
http://mapa.ign.gob.ar/laplata/ I dont know if its compatible with ODbL

http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA16945 and
https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/products/aster_policies is not very clear. Does
someone know  their policy? 


Also, I was told that there was an aerial imagery mission going on, I will
try to get updates about it and to see if theres a way to use that.

In the other hand, I was setting up an umap instance on
http://umap.openstreetmap.org.ar then imported the ushahidi KMLs into it:

http://umap.openstreetmap.org.ar/map/cypher/inundaciones-2013/#12/-34.8904/-
57.9749

 

This is great 



Then presented it at http://sos.openstreetmap.org.ar

I created a task in OSMTM, we should improve OSM data for La Plata and I
think that priorities are the places with the highest density of alerts.

http://tareas.openstreetmap.org.ar/job/11

Definitely. Based on the umap, I just split the two main affected grid, both
to highlith them and allow contributor to complete the digitizing quicker 



Thats all for now,

Fernando.

Hi,

A big thank you to all those that have been mapping last week, the
progresses are huge.

I share below a message from Yann Rebois, ICRC :

Hi there,
 following  the tasking manager, it is moving ahead ...

http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/199

We are supporting your volunteers morally and we are thanking them. please
share this encouragement to them!
Waiting the final results !

Many thanks

 Hello,

 Thank you very much to all those having already mapped for the Kunduz task
 : http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/199

 As this project has started 5 weeks ago, it would be great to be able to
 finish the mapping and tell the ICRC that they can use the data.

 I know that the DigitalGlobe imagery quality is low for tracing buildings :
 * you can offset the Bing imagery to align it with the DigitalGlobe
 imagery and trace with Bing
 * if you cannot see the building clearly or you don't understand where the
 walls are, then don't spend too much time trying to find out what it is :
 we can do our best with the imagery we have, but we cannot invent things.

 Thanks to all of you who will be mapping

 Best

 Fred

[HOT] HOT Activation in Central African Republic

2013-04-10 Thread Severin MENARD
Hi,

Considering the crisis in Central African Republic, it is worth HOT starts
an Activation. As I went in Bangui as a technical and strategic support for
the EUROSHA volunteers and have been continuing monitoring this since, I
may be the right Hottie to lead this. Just posted a blog post summarising
the ongoing activities and tasks:
