[OSM-talk] State of the Map Asia 2016 Call for Presentations

[Eugene Alvin Villar]

Dear everyone,

The State of the Map Asia 2016 team is hard at work to bring to you the
best presentations about OpenStreetMap and resilience in Asia and the rest
of the world. We couldn’t do that without your help! So we are inviting you
to submit proposals for 20-minute talks, 5-minute lightning talks, and
90-minute workshops that will provide value to conference attendees.

If you are interested in presenting, please refer to the following
conference web page for instructions: http://stateofthemap.asia/program

Note that the deadline for submission is on July 31.

We are all excited to see what you have in store for us!


Eugene Villar
On behalf of the SotM Asia 2016 Team

I think the materials available in http://learnosm.org/en/ would be
situable.

Hello Alert Bouterse,

The official language in Ghana is English [1], so here are some books in 
English:


http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Books

http://stevecoast.com/2015/11/05/the-book-of-osm-now-available/

You may buy a copy of each, read, and see if it is suitable as a 
textbook. I just mapped a couple of buildings in the town of Tarkwa, a 
centre of gold mining and manganese mining, in Ghana. There is an 
excellent satellite imagery for this town and many good buildings are 
not mapped yet. So students can also do a valuable work of mapping as a 
practical part of a course.

Best regards,

Oleksiy

Hi Hans,

Do you have an example that you have mapped?
