Hi Clark and all,
that is nice. 

In the doc attached however, section « hosting a marathon » I am asking myself 
how it comes the photo credit goes to MapGive cause i took it with my phone 
standing on a stool. 
See the original tweet here 

Bwt you can see it was in 2014. Please fix this.

Happy mapping to all :)

Re: [HOT] Languages something to think about on HOT projects.

[Bronwen Jones]

Something I just came across yesterday—I don't understand how it works
yet—is that the language-learning app Duolingo has a section of its site
that hosts documents for language-learners to translate. It appears to be a
crowd-sourced, collaborative sort of effort. There is a button for
uploading documents, and buttons within each document for users to
evaluate/edit each passage. The largest category of articles present are
Wikipedia articles, of which there are nearly 10,000 to choose among.

Perhaps this could be a tool for translating project instructions?

[HOT] Swaziland Malaria Elimination Final Section! They need building footprints!

[Blake Girardot]

Hi all,

A major Swaziland malaria spraying opportunity is coming up and the
folks from the Malaria Elimination Initiative (MEI) within the Global
Health Group at the University of California, San Francisco are asking
that we help them with the final section of Swaziland that has not
been mapped yet to aid in their program planning.

We have laid out 7 Tasking Manager projects to get this accomplished,
2 of which are almost complete.

The HOT Community has already mapped 2/3's of Swaziland (wow, thank
you!) and this final section is needed to complete a full country wide
building footprint map.

If you can find some time this week and next to help us get this final
section completed, you will be part of an amazing effort to map all of
Swaziland in such a sort time to help them eliminate malaria in 2016.

They are very close to their goal and building footprints help their
efforts greatly, aiding them to precisely plan their spraying and net
distribution campaigns over large land areas efficiently and
comprehensively among other uses. But now it is about planning, and
the building footprints are one of their best tools for that.

So please, join with the MEI folks, volunteers and other public health
pros who will be mapping along with you all this week and next to get
this last section done. (It is that important.)

And please help spread the word:

[HOT] Follow up on Sierra Leone message

[Pete Masters]

Hi all,

This is well worth reading. Many of the winning projects from the first
open Data bootcamp in Sierra Leone are very much up HOT's street...
Interesting to see where local people's priorities lie, too...

Re: [HOT] gps tracks in western africa

[joost schouppe]

Hi Blake,

Good ideas. I made an import account as you suggested, but haven't gotten
around to uploading the files.

Here's the track:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BzkGrg-2Kbc9bXhsOVlVQWhuaE0&usp=sharing

So I take it this is useful information then. I can get more collections
like this.
