Hi Ahasanul, Are you already in contact with www.cadasta.org? And also in the Netherlands a related initiative has started, see http://www.iicadastre.org/ . Not sure if they will have the smartphone-based technical solutions for the accuracy you mention though. But if you are ready to revert to

Totally agree Joseph. We just need agree on what is what and then push it into the existing scheme. On Tue, Oct 27, 2015 at 8:00 AM, Joseph Reeves wrote: > Sure, but can those existing keys / values be extended to cover the wash > data or is it too far from the mainstream

Hi Mike, The DigitalGlobe images you’re looking in that imagery TMs were taken before Patricia, not after. Because of the narrow extent of the disaster and the capable response of the Mexican government we decided not to prioritize obtaining and mapping post-disaster imagery. Our efforts
