Re: [talk-ph] TYPHOON RUBY - TASK CREATION NOTICE #801 - URGENT RESPONSE
According to the latest forecast, Hagupit/Ruby's expected landfall will be this evening around the area of Dolores. http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=14/12.0376/125.4837 Lots of settlements here still need detailed mapping. It is now marked as priority in task 801: http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/801 Since the HIU tiles is panchromatic, it maybe difficult to do buildings. But, experienced mappers can easily do this. Please focus of settlements near the coast (usually along the major road). Thanks!
