For all those interested in helping efforts in the Florida Panhandle, I
have three tasks on the US Chapter's Tasking Manager:
- Task 85 - Bay County FL Roads
- Task 87 Franklin County MS Building Import
- Task 90 Bay County FL Building and Address Import.
Just head over to https://tasks.
Pete,
Thanks for all your efforts to make Missing Maps a great resource and
congratulations on your new job.
Best,

I passed the request along to a local Costa Rica Mapper. Sure be nice if we
could get some cloud free imagery. I've drive some of the area in the task

1. Determine the cause(s) of the poorly mapped buildings. Do we need more

We care that they reflect the structure on the ground. I've mapped many

John,
I use QGIS regularly. Personally I believe the OSM editors, iD, Potlatch,
and JOSM are better suited for editing data. Someone I know is very
comfortable with QGIS tried using it as an OSM editor. I don't think he
succeeded. As a tool for working with OSM data to give to others QGIS can't

I just converted it to an osm [1] file for JOSM. Many of the nodes appear
to hit the sides of mountains, a fair distance from nearby villages. Of
course looking at the nodes in towns needs local review to verify if 1) the
node is positioned accurately and 2) is the location a health facility.

Living in an earthquake area, I understand and appreciate the need for
geological maps. The problem is in the complexity of geological data. Using
OSM as a base layer over which geological data is displayed is a very easy
way to see if residents and office buildings are in danger zones. I've

I think getting a message about editing errors is a valid quality process.
I suppose that you could allow the editor to opt out, or even opt in to
messages as well as confirmation that the edit was validated.

Looking at parts of Nigeria there are numerous unmapped areas. So good
opportunity to vastly improve Nigeria. What sort of data is available in
