The roads are basically done in this area so once we get the buildings that should be good for now I think. I might do all the trees like I did in Gulu, Uganda. I can mark all the locations and measure the relative size of all the trees in an area this size in a few hours but I don't know if that would be useful or not. It would be kind of interesting to set up the humanitarian rendering and take advantage of the size information to show only the big trees at the lower zooms, etc. Could also have a couple different icons for small, medium, and large trees, etc. This would allow high zoom printouts to be able to locate things very precisely which could be interesting. - -AndrewBuck On 03/19/2014 11:37 PM, maning sambale wrote: > Edited a few tasks mostly buildings and roads.

Edited a few tasks mostly buildings and roads. I find it difficult to mark "walls" as I'm not familiar with it. Feel free to "invalidate" and return it to the queue.

[HOT] Intensity Map
Hi, Is there any advice on the best way to do an intensity map. My data is updated on a monthly basis, but is in the format of town, province, etc. My internet access is limited both in speed and frequency of access, so an offline solution, that can be updated on a monthly basis would be better for me. Any thoughts would be highly appreciated. Cheers, James ___ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
Re: [HOT] Mapping Lubumbashi, DRC
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Jorieke, I made an announcement on IRC and got a few respondents already and I will be mapping for the next several hours as well. It would be good if you could hop on our mumble server before you go out tomorrow morning to chat briefly about what your survey plan is, etc. This will help us better know what to map, and I can try to share some tips on what to look for as well. Here is a link to instructions on how to set up mumble. We have tested it over low bandwidth internet links in both Africa and Haiti on both computers and on the Android/IOS version of the program and it works quite well for voice communication. It also has the additional advantage of being strongly encrypted from client to server which is a nice feature to have in areas like the Congo or Central African Republic where there is ongoing sporadic violence. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mumble One question I had was regarding what printouts you are using, are you printing the default mapnik style or the humanitarian style on your field papers pages? Also, I am wondering if you have printers there in DRC to print out updated versions as the week progresses? Finally, I had heard you will be taking GPS traces to better align imagery, etc. I expect the bing imagery will be pretty well aligned anyway but the traces will be good as a secondary source to double check.

[HOT] OpenDRI Field Guide Released
Hi All, I wanted to point out to you that the "Open Data for Resilience Initiative: Field Guide" was released yesterday(1). This is an exciting report authored by John Crowley and our friends at the World Bank Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery. You'll also see many HOT volunteers, partners and members are listed as providing input to the report. The power of having what we do codified into reports like this is an important aspect to the work HOT does. Every time it happens it makes it that much easier to coordinate with traditional institutions and interest them in the power of open data.

[HOT] Mapping Lubumbashi, DRC
Hi all! A little message straight out of Lubumbashi, in the Democratic Republic of Congo. I arrived yesterday to support the MSF team (Docters Without Borders) in their awsome OpenStreetMap mapping week! And for this we can really use the remote support of the rest of the HOT OpenStreetMap world! Yes, by this I also mean the places where the temperature is a little bit less than here ;-) A few weeks ago we had a great mapping party in Berlin, and now almost the whole roadnetwork of Lubumbashi is mapped. By going on the field today with the biggest fieldpapers you can image, we however need sometimes more detailed information! For this purpose the creation of two TM is in preparation. One of a part of the city which is really croweded, with a lot of people, with small streets, which are not yet mapped as detailled as possible on OpenStreetMap. So for this taks it will be important to really map in detail. The buildings, the bigger streets, the smaller alleys ... The other TM will be a zone where we will go tomorrow (This means in 8 hours!) with some MSF staff, but more important about 10 geography students of the local university. We now have field papers of what is existing now, what is the road network. It would however be good to have a liltle more info on this neighbourhood. In that way we well be able to orient us soo much better. Big buildings, or other places you think this might be a hospital, or a school... in that way we even can use it already tomorrow! Curious to see what we will see here tomorrow in the morning! :-) And for sure I will come back to you later, because this week in Lubumbashi just started! All the best and mappy night!
