[HOT] OSM based project in Bangladesh

[Marc van den Homberg]

Hi Ahasanul,

Are you already in contact with www.cadasta.org? And also in the
Netherlands a related initiative has started, see http://www.iicadastre.org/
.

Not sure if they will have the smartphone-based technical solutions for the
accuracy you mention though. But if you are ready to revert to drones with
LiDAR it will be possible... :-)

Experiences with mapping land parcels of small holder farmers in South
America have shown by the way that digitizing land parcels to resolve land
disputes/land claim issues might actually lead to severe "blackmailing" of
the initiative by those wanting to avoid the capturing of land and
resources.

Whether to call this project humanitarian or not is a question of how to
look at it and which type of project land you are talking about (belonging
to a CSO or NGO project?). In general mapping where people live and which
land they commonly use can definitely help in the response phase when
people have to relocate and find alternative sheltering. To return to their
-not officially owned- land can be an issue... if project developers or the
government want to start using/exploiting these areas differently. So it
could be called a form of data preparedness.

Best Marc

Subject: [HOT] Suggestion needed for designing an OSM based project
Hello,
Take greetings from Dhaka Bangladesh. I need a help to design an OSM based
project. An organization is thinking to digitalise some of their project
land areas, keep them on open platform and get regular update on the
tenure, rearrangement of allocation/splitting of the parcels, feature
change status regularly. But the land parcel's  measurement is a vital, it
should have inch level accuracy. Also, they are thinking to get all the
updates through a mobile app from field.

I found a strong potentiality of this idea with OSM . Now wondering, do
anyone know any example or similar type project what was/were based on OSM
? it will be great help for designing the project as well as for spreading
OSM in Bangladesh if you kindly share the links, report, experience alike.
You are also welcome to put your valuable suggestion in regards.

Thanks and Regards

Ahasan

Re: [HOT] How to incorporate WASH data into OSM

[mikel]

Map Kibera has extensively mapped watsan features, and developed tags to cover 
many related properties
The Map Kibera wiki page on this isn't functional right now, so here are 
OverPass Turbo links. Click on a few of the features to see the extent of 
what's coveredhttp://overpass-turbo.eu/s/cixhttp://overpass-turbo.eu/s/ciz

Will work to add the specifics into the discussion. Some of the tags are good, 
some need work. Will be very good to align these with a global consensus 
tagging scheme for watsan.

The pump key has already got some use:

It would be great if this could be extended to suit your needs. Some things

Sure, but can those existing keys / values be extended to cover the wash
data or is it too far from the mainstream OSM data? Looking at the examples

 The MSF team in Chad is carrying splendid work and so far has sent

  - TYPE_OF_REPAIR_NEEDED

 Should all of the variables be included as tags? Is there a protocol on
 how to incorporate WASH and water infrastructure data?

 Thanks for your help!

[HOT] How to incorporate WASH data into OSM

[Jose Cisneros Gallegos]

Hi everyone!

The MSF team in Chad is carrying splendid work and so far has sent
previously non-existing data about water points in the region of Bokoro. At
the GIS unit in MSF London we are trying to incorporate this newly acquired
data into OSM, however we are not exactly sure how to proceed. Some of the
variables include:

 - PUMP_EXISTS
 - PUMP_TYPE
 - OTHER_PUMP_TYPE
 - HAND_PUMP_WORKING
 - NOT_WORKING:NOT_WORKING_TIME_UNIT
 - NOT_WORKING:HOW_LONG_NOT_WORKING
 - NOT_WORKING:NOT_WORKING_LABEL
 - WHY_NOT_WORKING
 - FLOW_RATE
 - BOREHOLE_PROTECTED
 - REPAIR_NEEDED
 - TYPE_OF_REPAIR_NEEDED

Should all of the variables be included as tags? Is there a protocol on how
to incorporate WASH and water infrastructure data?

Thanks for your help!

Jose,
I think it would be really smart if MSF, Red Cross and other NGOs could
come up with a standard tagging scheme for wash activities. There isn't
anything thus far and I can see a huge benefit to support both our Missing
Maps field work but also field work in other areas such as refugee camps.

Re: [HOT] How to incorporate WASH data into OSM

[Joseph Reeves]

hi Jose, Dale,

On the topic of a standard tagging schema, there's the start of something
on the wiki:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:pump

The pump key has already got some use:

http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/?key=pump#overview

It would be great if this could be extended to suit your needs. Some things
would be easily done (PUMP_TYPE, FLOW_RATE), but others such as the time
it's been failed for would presumably take some extra thinking. I'm sure we
could get it worked out though!

Cheers, Joseph

[Rafael Avila Coya]

I forgot to say that, to elaborate a tagging proposal, we would need to
know all the original tags plus the different values for each one, and
their meaning.

Cheers,

Rafael.

Re: [HOT] Hurricane Patricia Update: October 25

[Robert Banick]

Hi Mike,




The DigitalGlobe images you’re looking in that imagery TMs were taken before 
Patricia, not after. Because of the narrow extent of the disaster and the 
capable response of the Mexican government we decided not to prioritize 
obtaining and mapping post-disaster imagery. Our efforts are instead focused on 
mapping what was there before so that responders can utilize that data to 
assess damages afterwards for themselves.




Mapping post-disaster objects is always a heavy task with lots of potential for 
error from incomplete imagery. In this case the Mexican government can likely 
do a better job faster than we can, so we’re sticking to simpler tasks we can 
do well quickly.




Best,

Robert
