[talk-ph] Remote mapping for health facility research

[maning sambale]

Dear everyone,

Just to inform you that this activity has started.  For details read below:

Overview:
World Health Organization (WHO) is conducting a research on the
accessibility of health care facilities in Luzon using the tool
AcessMod . They intend to use OpenStreetMap road and river network
dataset for the above areas as input to their accessibility analysis.

* Areas to cover - Regions I, II, III, IV-A, V, CAR and NCR (33
provinces plus NCR)
* Mapping priorities - Roads ( trunk, primary, secondary and
tertiary), ferry routes and river network
* Level of detail - 1:50K to 1:20K  or zoom levels 13-15
* Period of mapping - May 2015

Mappers involved:
maning, GOwin, schadow1, feyeandal, Rally, jenjereren, G-eMapper,
Ayoo, Hayat Tib Ben Hammadi

Coordination and monitoring:
To monitor and coordinate the mapping activity, we created a Tasking
Manager instance based on HOT's Tasking Manager.

Current changeest tags we are using are the following:
#MCP Luzon River mapping
#MCP Luzon Road mapping

As a basic principle, we will respect the existing data in OSM,  if
you have concerns with the edits of the above users in relation to
this activity, please let us know.

At the end of the mapping activity, we hope to intend stats on the
results.  Thanks!

[talk-ph] Bing Imagery

[Totor]

Hi all,

Cebu is relatively well covered, so consider this low priority.
Since nobody seems to be requesting any imagery, 
here is what is missing or could be improved in Cebu:

http://osm.totor.ph/Cebu_Missing_Bing.jpg

The pink areas are missing. 
The yellow area is cloud covered in many places (but most things have already 
been traced from older Bing imagery) .

and here are the same areas exported from JOSM :

Cheers,


Totor

 Hello
 there,
 Bing is following up
 again on the missing imagery. Do we have a list or timeline
 on how long this will take to compile?We're
 also prepping to complete disaster risk mapping tasks in
 preparation for the typhoon season, so it would be helpful
 to secure imagery soon.
