Re: [HOT] WRI forest tracks import in Congo Basin
Just a comment having done a fair bit of HOT mapping in Cameroon I'm quite interested in this project. However my written French is a little rusty and in some ways I feel a bit isolated from the OSM mappers in Cameroon and a few mappers on the ground to tag would help enormously. Also a few GPS traces on the majors roads would help. Most roads are fine but cloud cover meant that there are gaps to say the least. I note that there are a number of existing roads in OSM that look like imports that did not seem to align with the high resolution satellite imagery.

Re: [HOT] Need Suggestions: Union Mapping
Hi Ahasan, We will be pleased to support you for this action. I would suggest that you first organize a remote mapping session with your local experienced mappers, trace the map in detail (roads + buildings) and add as much infos as you can. This will greatly facilitate the field work later. There is good Bing and Mapbox imagery available. This should facilitate tracing buildings an roads. Infos such as street, locality, neighbourhood names and important infrastructures such as hospitals, etc. will help later people to locate them when doing the field work. We often prefer to use the JOSM editor since it is possible to work even in the context of bad internet connection. There is also a building plugin that facilitate tracing the buildings. In the preparation of the Field work, it would help that you test your field work methodology, including adding the information to OSM later. While some people are mapping some areas, you could alternate and do some field work collection to test your methodology both using phones and paper. Since you only have 3 phones and 1 gps, it will be important to also use FieldPapers. Phones and gps could be used to trace streets and compare with the map made from aerial imagery. There are also questionnaires available that help document the infrastructures.1. Phone Android applications such as OsmAnd with an offline map do not require access to internet (If it was possible to have more phones it would help I think) 2. FieldPaper printouts where people can take notes. regard Pierre De : Ahasanul Hoque hoque.aha...@gmail.com À : Jorieke Vyncke jorieke.vyn...@gmail.com; Pete Masters pedrito1...@googlemail.com; hot@openstreetmap.org hot@openstreetmap.org Envoyé le : Lundi 9 février 2015 13h51 Objet : [HOT] Need Suggestions: Union Mapping Dear Jorieke/ Pete and all,Hope you are fine.
