Hi all:
I was doing some testing on manually tracing the clan boundaries of
Liberia from the UNMIL places data. That data includes, for the huge
majority of the 14,020 nodes, the clan each place belongs to, and also
the district and county.
There are

I am not sure this is worth doing, at least not manually. GIS
software can draw enclosing polygons around the common clan entries
and then these could be used to the same effect, with a lot less
manual work.
However in any case, I think we need to as
Hi HOT
Please have a look at this patchwork of small residential clusters and
mix of cultivated gardens, lawns, orchards...
This is currently mapped as surrounding landuse=farmland with
inclusion of landuse=residential.

My previous message leads me to a more generic question.
In http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/767 and maybe some other project,
the instructions reads:
"Settlements:
Trace polygon around clusters of houses. Tag with landuse=residential"
I feel these instructions are related to rural areas. They can
Hi athio,
Oh I don't know. I don't think what I see classifies as "small
gardens" especially when grouped into contiguous parcels.
Considering how basically well mapped it is, I would just fix up the
tags and in at least one example:

Clan names from the import had problems with truncation, as far as I
recall, so they would have to be verified.

Hi
The objective is not to make micro-mapping of each parcel and more to trace
residential areas in rural areas.
There were some discussions on this, but I dont think that there is consensus
on this. In urban areas, we shoud simply have a large polygon around the urban
area and not cut at each
My own practice for large urban areas (last experience was a Canadian
city rather than a HOT task) is to carve them up into multiple
landuse=residential areas, bounding them on roads or other landuse
types. As much as possible, though, I avoid actually making the
boundaries/roads touch each oth

them before you can correct the ones in error.

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Center for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) need all rural Cameroon mapped in response to the Polio
outbreak and also monitoring and preparing for a possible Ebola outbreak.
