Re: [talk-ph] Meetup with OSM-PH community for the Participatory mapping and LGU decision support tools for Disaster Risk Reduction Project
Dear everyone, tl;dr It was great event! 11 people joined and I am personally happy to meet new people whom I see only as usernames in the OSM editors (JOSM, P2 and iD) Photos in FB: Here's the summary of our notes thanks to feye and dianne for compiling. :) = Attendees - Rally De Leon - Eugene Villar - Erwin Olario - Miguel Martin Menez - Ervin Malicdem - Vanessa Malicdem - John Ernest Caliwag - Leonard Doyle - Maning Sambale - Feye Andal - Dianne Bencito - Photos - https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151727536452597.1073741825.345455082596type=3 Discussion and agreements Brief introduction about ESSC Maning introduced the Environmental Science for Social Change (ESSC) which the WorldBank has partnership on *Participatory Mapping and LGU decision support tools for DRR*. ESSC is a Jesuit research institution engaged in local, national and regional research and dialogue that contribute to an understanding and sustainability of community-based environmental management through the development of a science for social change. ESSC's approach to environmental mapping makes significant contribution to building people's capacities to collectively manage and plan towards an improvement of their way of life through a more responsive management of the environment. Sevaral mapping related project of ESSC includes: Marikina Watershed, Community Mapping, IPs (Bukidnon Pulangiyen), FOSS-Geo Training, Forest cover monitoring. Project Overview (WorldBank-ESSC Partnership) Maning presented the ESSC_WB partnership entitled *Participatory Mapping and LGU decision support tools for DRR* The project is a six month project focusing on providing capacity to local government units to prepare/formulate risk-sensitive land-use plans, structural audits of public infrastructure and disaster contingency plans. The LGUs need access to hazard and risk data through user friendly tools for analyzing this information for specific decisions. Major Objectives are: - support growth of OSM - support customization of InaSAFE (impact assessment) Activities and Components: - Developing tools and learning materials. Training materials will be largely based on the www.learnosm.org. - Trainings to 5 LGUs and other local partners. The target LGUs are: (Candaba, Guagua, Lubao in Pampanga; Calamba, Bay, Santa Cruz in Laguna). - This is not yet final since we need to secure approval from the DILG and the respective LGU leaders. - ESSC is also looking for local OSM volunteers (trainors) who can help in conducting the training (email emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com if you are interested) - Sharing, distribution and maintenance of data. - Build and nurture partnerships and collaborations. - ESSC is open to interested groups or individuals to participate in the project. - Sharing project outcomes to the public. - Related to OSM-PH, we have committed to co-organize small OSM-PH community events. Our QC office can accommodate small events for OSM-PH. The slides are here: http://www.slideshare.net/esambale/essc-osmph-wbproject Issues raised/comments - *On the flooding in Candaba, Pampanga*. Ernest mentioned that the flooding in Candaba is partly due to water coming from upstream towns of Bulacan (san Miguel and Dona Remedios Trinidad). Ernest is from San Miguel and has contacts with the current LGU leaders. It would be good to coordinate and share some aspects of the project to San Miguel so that they can also participate if possible. Ernest agreed to initiate the coordination. - *On the lack of active marketing within OSM-PH community to expand user base.* Unlike other community mapping projects (G MapMaker), OSM-PH doesn't do intensive PR and the marketing of OSM in the Philippines rely mostly on word-of-mouth. This is understandable since being volunteer group we don't have any dedicated marketing arm. Related to ESSC's project, we will try provide regular updates in our website to support the marketing aspect. If others have ideas on how we can spread the word even more, let's discuss. - *On encouraging the use of local language in the OSM-PH mailinglist.*This talk-ph mailinglist is very much EN language centric. Maning proposes that we encourage the use of other local language to encourage LGUs to post and ask questions. EN maybe intimidating to some people and maybe one reason very few newbies are posting. The group agreed that this is OK and should be encouraged. - *On additional tags for roads that is used by LGUs.* LGUs interested in using OSM data and they are trying to make sense of our road classification scheme. OSM road tagging is mostly by function (motorway, trunk, primary, secondary, oneway, etc.) and physical characteristics (unpaved, concrete, etc). Most LGUs categorize road by administrative

Thanks again to everyone. Sorry we had to cut the discussions because of the time. Discussion notes later.
