Hello,
Do you have any screenshot that shows the error during installation?
Maybe we can help.
Cheers.

This looks of potential interest to the HOT community:

Today the Somali capital is at peace, but decades of war destroyed its
informational soul—the systems that keep data on tax collection, property
ownership, road repair, and so on that let
We have had our second meeting of the experimental support team assisting
the ground team in Togo. We plan to continue meeting once per day
continuing forward to keep the community informed of the situation on the

I also forgot that for this specific case in CAR, we will use Bing and the Task
Manager. I agree that this is a good approach to validate WRI imports against
Bing. This is the best way to do it and try to reconcile the OSM and the WRI
databases. This will also help to evaluate the quality o
Oh, I forgot that the tasking manager was being used in this import. Since
that allows us to track the progress of the import and easily keep track of
what is not yet imported then I withdraw my previous objection to a partial
import. My concern was mainly that we would "lose" some of the data si
Last night the Support team had our first meeting with the HOT ground team
in Lomé, the capital city of Togo. Please see the “Announcing the Support
Team Experiment” email thread for details of how this team will function.
This email will be our first ‘report’ back to the community from meeting

This e-mail is to announce the creation of an experimental support team to
work out better ways of communicating with, and assisting, our ground teams
in developing countries. Currently HOT has ground teams training mappers
and organizing mapping parties in developing countries all over the world,
Hi,
Many of these things have been discussed and considered. This is why we
suggested this new way of using the tasking manager, the wri data and bing
together and extract the useful data. The step of manually reviewing the
wri data against the imagery and using it as a guide instead of a blind
There is a discussion on the "operational_status" tag on the tagging list,
which is of relevance to the HOT efforts. Attached is a copy of one of the
messages.
I'm attempting to formalize use of an operational_status tag for domestic
uses for pay phones, toilets and drinking water.
But the HOT tea
To my point of view, you should never import blankly. If its just a problem of
accuracy, I agree that with a 200 meters error in a desertic area, it may still
be helpful to import. But other then that, if we are not sure about the quality
of the data, if the roads exist really, we should not imp
I understand the 'bad data worse than no data argument' but I think that
only goes so far. Having a road on the map that isn't terribly accurate is
unlikely to cause major problems for people. Having a hospital where none
exists could be a major problem, but for roads I think this is less of an

Andrew,
Actually I agree, but I discussed this before with some other OSM/HOT
people (It's been so long I don't remember when or who) and it was said
that using inaccurate data might be worse than nothing.
For the CAR specifically I think using the data might be better than not
using it. There is
Regarding areas with no imagery. I would still say to import the roads. A
couple hundred meters off is a lot, but it is better to have the
'connectivity' mapped (i.e. what town connects to what other town) than to
have nothing at all. Someone following the road in a car does not mind
that their
Hi,
I'm also prepared to contribute to finish this task and improve the CAR-map.
The WRI road-dataset isn't that big but it's not an easy task and still a
lot of work. I'm not sure a few mappers will be enough but it would be nice
to at least be able to start some work. I was just waiting on the
Hey everybody
Had a good chat yesterday on #hot, focused on HOT tech. We did a go round with
everyone sharing what they've been working on. Some good connections were made
in the conversation, including sharing that UNHCR has forked and is using our
work on humanitarian mapping styles (https://
Not sure if anyone else has seen this but I thought I would post.
