Re: [HOT] Vanuata Islands, Pam Cyclone

[Yantisa Akhadi]

Hello all,

Great job for everyone involved! I just got question from my colleague in
UN OCHA. His colleague in Vanuatu would like to download and use the data.
Is there any other alternative(s) from the Geofabrik ones? Since the file
size for the whole continents is 600MB. This might be a bit of challenge
for them.

Thanks,

-Iyan

Hi Yantisa
Thanks to Blake Girardot, we have access to daily updates for Vanuatu only. 
This link shows what available.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2015_03_Vanuatu_Pam_Cyclone_Response#Daily_updates
  
Extract in various formats are available- osm.pbf many GIS software read this 
format- obf (OSMAnd offline data for smartphones)- Garmin gps
Blake works to add the shapefile extract. Hopes this will be available today.

Re: [HOT] Vanuata Islands, Pam Cyclone

[Pierre Béland]

Some follow-up
Remote response support is moving fast as humanitarians organizations are still 
trying to assess the situation and deploy in the various remote areas, with 
islands spread 650 km long.
As usual, we have a Skype communication room where we coordinate with the 
DHNetwork partners and the international community.

Again, the international community is impressed by the rapid OSM response and 
the detailed data. The building task is nearly at 90% completed. Awesome again! 
But we still need your input to complete and 
validate.http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/945

The World Food Program (UN WFP) plan to use our data as their team are 
deploying. Communication towers is also a concern for them with all the 
communications cut. We shoul receive databases to compare with OSM and try to 
find more Communication towers.

Thanks to Blake who work hard to setup the Daily data export and add the ESRI 
Shapefile format.Thanks also to Mikel for the communication tower mapping 
documentation.

cheers.

Important aspect of remote islands is indigenous tribes with non-Western
housing.  Likely not visible on satellite. High vulnerability.  Needs local
knowledge to identify locations.

Re: [HOT] Vanuata Islands, Pam Cyclone

[Pierre Béland]

Thanks Rob
With the dense forests, we can sometimes see partial roofs, which let us 
confirm various isoleted residential areas.  In general, this is probably 
metallic roofs. I have not spot any huts so far or more traditionnal housings 
in these areas.

To document the mapping, it would greatly help to have pictures.
The international charter just activated and this should provide us new 
imagery.  

It is important for us to have feedbacks from the field about the work we do, 
the places where people think we should revise.

[HOT] West Africa Ebola Activtion - UNMEER request to Enhance Routing

[Pierre Béland]

Hi all,
With the rainy season arriving soon in West Africa, the UN Mission for Ebola 
Emergency Response (UNMEER) wants to enhance the routing algorithms to better 
predict the road displacement times.
This morning, we had a formal request from UNMEER to collaborate on this 
project as the rainy season arrives soon. We would like to have your comments 
on the feasability and the best way for us to participate to such a project.

There were already discussions on this recently, talking either about isochrone 
maps, WFP enhancing road conditions, usage of the OSRM tool.

>From the discussions this morning, A local drinking company would accept to 
>collaborate with the drivers providing average speed time. 

UNMEER plans to use seasonnal average speed time (ie. rainy / dry seasons). 
This means that we would have to add two tags to enter this information into 
the OSM database.  The drinking company would take care to organize the data 
collection with their employes. We discussed about either using Fieldpapers or 
some tools like OSMand if drivers are using phones.

To conclude, it was said in the discussion that OSMand is one of the best tool 
ever. Always interesting to have such feedbacks, and yes, in context of 
humanitarian operations in such large territories, these mobile tools are as 
valuable as in our car at home, and invaluable for drivers.

Hi, Pierre:

A possibility would be to use a rejected but yet quite used
maxspeed:practical tag [1]

- From it, I would suggest maxspeed:practical:dryseason,
maxspeed:practical:rainyseason

There maybe better solutions...

Cheers,

Rafael.

Re: [HOT] West Africa Ebola Activtion - UNMEER request to Enhance Routing

[Pierre Béland]

Hi Rafael,
the problem is that we would not use appropriately the tag if we record average 
speeds.

Then, what's  about structuring this way ?speed:average:dryseason,
speed:average:rainyseason

I said there would be probably better solutions ;)

It sounds good to me. The only thing is that speed isn't an approved
tag, while maxspeed is.

Re: [HOT] West Africa Ebola Activtion - UNMEER request to Enhance Routing

[Blake Girardot]

I would use the existing conditional: structure that lets you specify 
months.


It has the advantage of being accepted already and routing software 
should already be able to parse it.

Hi Rafael,

the problem is that we would not use appropriately the tag if we record

Then, what's  about structuring this way ?

Hi, Pierre:

A possibility would be to use a rejected but yet quite used
maxspeed:practical tag [1]

- From it, I would suggest maxspeed:practical:dryseason,
maxspeed:practical:rainyseason

There maybe better solutions...

Cheers,

Rafael.

Yes, we should discuss with developper of routing applications to see the best 
way to handle this.

Re: [HOT] Vanuata Islands, Pam Cyclone

[Pierre Béland]

Update from
https://fr.news.yahoo.com/inqui%C3%A9tude-pour-les-%C3%AEles-recul%C3%A9es-du-vanuatu-apr%C3%A8s-062357404.html
Reports that the islands south of Port-Vila are severely affectec, since the 
cyclone passed over them and stay longer. There are still communications cut 
and incomplete reports.

Fantastic progression of the task manager job 945 (92% done), but there is 
still some work to do for Tanna island. Please cover this island in priority, 
and validate the Erromango island just north of Tanna that was also severely 
damaged.

[HOT] Something good associate with OSM

[mateusz]

Hello.

I would like to introduce project which may revolutionize global access to
information about safety and have impact on the improvement.
Of course project is created on OSM base.
 
It is mobile app available on android devices:
 
[ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.safethru.android ]( 
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.safethru.android )
 
SafeThru is useful for people interested in improve local safety level
for example by inform others about danger areas but most of all it is
great tool for travelers for whom this knowledge is like gold dust.
Especially for them Airbnb feature is developed. Now they can check Airbnb
offers and choose one from 'good neighborhood'.
 
Core of app is in place and it can be download from google store.
But it is in beta stage and there are some functions that we would like to
discuss with potential users. And that is why there is crowdfunding
campaign on indiegogo platform:
 
[ 
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/safethru-dare-to-protect-yourself-and-others 
]( 
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/safethru-dare-to-protect-yourself-and-others 
)
 
We would like to ask for support OpenStreetMap community in founding
this project. We need help with communicate this initiative to
OSM community. I'm happy to send more photos or materials.
I'm sure that if we succeed it will be OSM success ass well.
 
Kind Regards,

Re: [HOT] Something good associate with OSM

Hello Mateusz,

Please stop sending this announcement to every OSM mailing list. I see that Dan 
Stowell already asked you on the osm-newbies list to stop sending email to more 
than one osm list, and I also see that Michael Reichert on the osm-talk list 
has reported that you have been sending OSM users personal messages as well.

Your SafeThru application is only marginally related to OSM (you are creating a 
proprietary application and generating a proprietary database, and are only 
using an OSM basemap) and is completely irrelevant to HOT. Because you are 
sending unsolicited commercial email, this technically fits into some 
definitions of "spam". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spamming 


Please do not send any further announcements to any OSM mailing lists.

[HOT] Weekly Activation Working Group

[Severin Menard]

Hi all,

So yes, we decided during the last monthly AWG meeting to move ahead and to
test having a weekly meeting, moreover because we have much in our plate to
prepare the future HOT Activation Summit, especially brainstorming about
what we want to document and in which kind of materials.

What we did not plan is what happened to Vanuatu last week, and of course
it will be a good opportunity to make an assessment of the first days of
the activation with the first TM jobs are almost over, including the one
focusing on tracing buildings.

We also discussed about having two different time slots, eg alternating
every week, to allow people for whom the current time is too early or too
late to participate. We decided the best way to figure out if it would
interest people and what time would then fit the most, here is a Doodle
 to evaluate it. You should see the
time zone on the far right and you need to double check it is your time
zone.

Sincerely,

Severin
