in which sense? Both tags are used for alternative names, local is 
smaller/narrower in scope than regional, conceptually

[OSM-talk] loc_name vs. reg_name

[Bernhard R. Fischer]

Hi list!

Is there any clarification about the difference between loc_name and
reg_name?

Regards,
Bernhard

That looks refreshingly different in focus looking more at data quality 
assurance and validation and less at automated data production.  I look 
forward to seeing more practical results in that direction.

One specific hint about this:  For validation and QA purposes AI 
techniques are often inefficient and noisy/error-prone and traditional 
image analysis can sometimes be at least as valuable and reliable with 
less ressource requirements.  Because in validation you have a priori 
facts/claims you want to validate, you need to answer questions 
like "is this building geometry accurate" and not the tasks AI 
techniques are typically advertised for like "find and trace all 
buildings in this area".

There are of course also QA tasks where AI can be more useful for like 
the typical needle-in-a-haystack problems.

[OSM-talk] Update from HOT on machine learning in the Tasking Manager

[Nate Smith]

Hello OSM community -

Sharing another update from HOT. We recently published a blog post of notes
about some initial thinking and directions HOT is going to take for how we
integrate machine learning tools directly into the Tasking Manager.

Read the full post here:
https://www.hotosm.org/updates/integrating-machine-learning-into-the-tasking-manager/

To call out a couple things:
- Right now there are easier and higher impact wins around data quality
checks and mapping guidance. This is an area we want to expand first and is
an important point to how we're thinking getting started.
- This doesn't need to be a HOT only exploration. If others want to look to
build APIs that receive requests from the Tasking Manager, join us in the
discussions!
- This is just a start to the discussion with some initial directions.
We'll build and evaluate quickly to continue to evolve how we do this.

Nate
