Re: [HOT] [Talk-bd] OSM for mitigation project

2015-02-02 Thread Frederic Moine

Dear Ahasan,

Thanks for your replay,

Let see how far we can go in Haiti,

We take our time to be sure to involve the local population and OSM 
contributors .
And is not so easy : )

For UAVs we train pilots because the material remains expensive .
And there is also a safety issue , so we have permits to fly in France and 
Haiti .
And it is rather good news that there was a framework for UAV flight 
authorization
in Bangladesh.

For NDVI we will let you know, but our methodology for the moment is done on a 
small watershed.
Not like the one we have seen in Bangladesh, so we will need to adapt the tool 
and methodology according
to the field reality.

All the best, FredM




If you have some contact

Dear Frederic,
Think you already have got my reply of your earlier mail ccd with 
viven and steven.
As I told in earlier mail that since 2014 jan there is restriction on 
flying drone without permission. One of my Japanese researches group 
(cc) have done almost same study as you in Jamalpur district in 2013. 
It was an ADB funded Govt (Bangladesh Water Development Board) 
project. I think you could get the permission through BWDB or DDM.


I have read your methodology used in Haiti and like the PGIS approach, 
it can give an accurate data set. Wondered to see that you are using 
NIR camera and NDVI data also what was not used in Haiti. Waiting to 
see its use. It will be an interesting study for me. Some tools are 
not familiar to me like Orfeo-toolbox and Pix4D.


See you in April.

Best regards

Ahasan

Dear Syed,

I hope everything is going well.
I will try in the following weeks to move on this authorization to
fly in Bangladesh, any help are welcome.

We are working on a new methodology to use drone on risk reduction
project ( with OpenStreetMap Haiti, I am also an OSM contributor).
We will test a Near Infra Red NIR camera for land cover /land use
work.

We will see how far we can go.

We will use this camera S110 NIR

https://support.pix4d.com/hc/en-us/articles/202561429-Example-Datasets-Available-for-Download-Agriculture
https://www.sensefly.com/examples-of-postflight-processing.html
https://www.sensefly.com/applications/agriculture.html

So let see if it can be useful during a pilot test end April/May
in Bangladesh.

Even if we will do with an NGO, I am still using a Drone for OSM
activities, as a OSM contributor to improve our worklfow and try
to find useful use of it.

So don't hesitate to contact me, especially to see with the
authorization.


PS:
All our imagery are on OSM France server (Jean Guilhem are doing
the maintenance)  . Available as WMS / TMS link
 2014 images

2013 images

Or directly in JOSM if you check supplier = HT / Imagerie Drone
2014 (Haïti)  or HT / Imagerie drone (Haïti)

https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Help/Preferences/Imagery


Software:
We will use Pix4D for the mosaic

And for the extraction of the land cover and other ( NDVI ) we
will use Orfeo toolbox http://www.orfeo-toolbox.org/otb/

All the best FredM

Hi Fred,

Thanks for your email. I think deploying drones will be a great
idea for mapping those places for better hydrological modeling. I
believe the marked areas are mostly rural in nature, and I don't
expect tall buildings there. However, we sure can check that
accurately. I also believe that the permission from the flight
regulation authority is possible. I know couple of people, who
can help us on that regard. Previously, we have seen drones being
deployed in different agricultural projects in rural Bangladesh,
and I dont think it will be difficult for us to get the permission.

I am copying this email with couple of my friends, who can give
you more information. Please let us know if you have any other

What do you think?  The idea is to have the best open database to
improve hydrological modelling  (we discussed  the methodology in
this events http://eguworkshop.deltares.nl/index.php/agenda/index

Including local knowledge about the risk, a good elevation model
(height of the building, an up to date land cover, road, etc).

For sure we will need to obtain permission from the flight
regulation authority,

Any idea, possible not possible in your country.
