[talk-ph] GADM data into OSM
Hi, Please see related boundary edits by this user: https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/joyvious324/history#map=7/12.341/123.202 Specifically those with changeset comment: [Samar] Added more boundaries For a brief background, community consensus was, GADM is not good for import into OSM both from legal and data quality perspective. See Eugene's mail: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-ph/2011-May/003255.html If anyone wants to talk to the user (no time for me right now), please send a message nicely. :) P.S. Just came from Catbalogan and the data is really good within the city center. Thanks to the above user and others. :) -- cheers, maning -- Freedom is still the most radical idea of all -N.Branden blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ -- ___ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
Re: [talk-ph] OSM Notes opened for the Yolanda / Haiyan Typhoon and not yet resolved
I actually reached out to ChrisEspectato (via an OSM account message) on 21 February to ask about the purpose of the notes. If I haven't heard back after some time I was planning on going through and closing the notes. With the anonymous notes, reaching out isn't possible. I think it's good to close some of the notes in the manner you mention. There are certainly some notes leftover from Yolanda that could be resolved (because they are no longer relevant or do not contain enough detail). On a side note, there are also many tags related to the Yolanda response that could be 'archived' or removed. Unfortunately this sort of cleanup work tends to be a lot less interesting than adding new details and features to the map.

Talking of archiving the Yolanda info, while working for the Hagupit typhoon, I made propositions on the HOT Discussion list but only few comments.See http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Damage-evaluation-tagging-schema-td5831094.html Plus still working on the Ebola activation and missed time assuring that this moves on.

Re: [talk-ph] OSM Notes opened for the Yolanda / Haiyan Typhoon and not yet resolved
I'd like the damage tagging scheme to be a topic of discussion at the HOT summit. @pierre do you think you could lead/propose a session.
