Re: [HOT] [Feature Interpretation] #767 - Mali, Bamako
Wow, thats a good one althio, I have no first hand knowledge of what those are, but they are cool. I have no idea, grain silos is my first guess, but I don't think they make sense in the middle of the fields like that, nor do I know if they are divided up inside like these are. But they could just be interesting huts too.

This farmland seems well structured. These circles seem connected one to the other. Not sure, but this could be water reservoirs for the adjacent fields.

Re: [HOT] Skybox for Good imagery
Josh -- As some of you may be aware, we recently announced the Skybox for Good http://www.skyboximaging.com/blog/introducing-skybox-for-good program. We know that some of this imagery can be especially useful in Crisis Response situations, and therefore we are explicitly authorizing usage of Skybox for Good imagery in any current HOT Activation http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/HOT_activation, under the condition that changesets and/or features that are derived from Skybox for Good imagery and committed to OSM are attributed to Skybox. That's fantastic news!! Ok, folks, who gets to send the formal Thank You? I bet that's the communications working group. And I also bet it's safe to infer a whole bunch of individual thank-yous. ;-) This could, for example, include the method of attributing Skybox as the source, or a similar method deemed appropriate by HOT. We had that older thread about imagery tagging, where it came down to source (used since forever) and the new, automatically-added imagery_used tag in iD, which, it was pointed out, might not be accurate if the user switches imagery temporarily -- would have to see what iD does in that case. One thought -- maybe it would be good to add imagery_used in JOSM with the same behavior as iD, just so they're consistent. We'd keep adding source, but imagery_used would be there as a fallback. Task validators can also check for a source tag, since a task usually specifies a set of imagery. -- Pat ___ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot

Re: [HOT] Skybox for Good imagery
Hi Satoshi, Yes. My fault for delaying this but now done. Hence Josh' announcement. I am happy that: * The provider is aware of what we will do with their imagery and data derived from it. * The provider has given their explicit permission to include derived data into the OSM database. * The proposed attribution mechanism, adding source to tags and/or change sets is practical, (the imagery will only be released in the context of HOT projects). I have also added a new section for HOT under http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Attribution .
