[HOT] Cyclone in Madagascar
A new cyclone reached Madagascar. Damages seem to be "limited" but it affects a city (Mahajanga) not covered by high resolution satellite view. There are still several places in Madagascar than can be hit by cyclone but not covered by detailed views. What can we do besides waiting for post-crisis pictures? http://www.orange.mg/actualite/cyclone-hellen-237-sinistres-recenses-mahajanga Eric ___ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
Re: [HOT] Cyclone in Madagascar
Hi Eric Many of us are busy presently with the Ebola outbreak. if you want to take care of this, first step: if Bing imagery is available. create a Task Manager job for the city and ask people on this list to participate and trace in detail including the buildings.

Re: [HOT] Cyclone in Madagascar
Hi Pierre, if you want to take care of this, first step: if Bing imagery is available. Bing imagery is not available and this is my main concern. This was already a concern for Haruna cyclone last year. Regards Eric ___ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot

Re: [HOT] Ebola Outbreak Guinea - West Africa, Mapping to support CartONG - MSF-CH - IFRC
For this Ebola Outbreak, CartOng - MSF-CH and IFRC - Red Cross have asked us to map in detail 7 towns of Guinea. Six of them are map and we are waiting for Imagery to trace the town of Mamou. We are also following the situation. When suspected cases are reported, it takes many days to confirm / infirm such cases. We have reports coming from various regions of Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Until these cases are confirmed, we prioritize to add the Place names to the map. This facilitates the monitoring of the situation and is useful to provide a better base map of this region. Once confirmations will come, we will had new tasks to trace towns in detail. We have a new job to add the place names. This can be done by less experienced mappers. See http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/483 We invite more experienced mappers to join the discussion on Mumble and see tasks to validate information / align places with comparison with the various imageries available. Instructions for Mumble https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mumble To see all available jobs for this Ebola Outbreak http://tasks.hotosm.org/#featured/Ebola Pierre___ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
