In OpenStreetMap we map features present in the world, which does not include problems with a specific set of imagery such as where it changes resolutions or where there are clouds, which is why presets do not exist for this. A tool like uMap (http://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/) might work for sharing this type of data, but it doesn't belong in the OpenStreetMap database. ___ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
[HOT] Mapping clouds and low resolution imagery
I am developing a project to incorporate HOT/OSM data into an application to plan for and manage food security emergencies in developing countries. The HOT/OSM data is converted into a shapefile using the HOT export tool ( http://export.hotosm.org/en/ ) to link to other data in QGIS.

I have looked for tags or presets for identifying these impediments but have not been able to find them. Can anyone help? For the moment I have tested a workaround using the OSM AREA tag and the keywords "Cloud" or "Lowresolution" as the NAME. I can then easily create a shapefile using the Esri SHP (OSM Schema) and the OSM Data Model in the HOT export tool. Would this be an acceptable option?

[HOT] OSM Contact In Afghanistan
Dear all, Somebody in Afghanistan ask me some information about OSM and how to make mapping party. As this country has a specific context and relation with mapping. Rather than to give basic information, I will rather prefer make a direct link with people who were or are in the field Could you send me a private message frmoine at protonmail.ch and I will make the link.
