This is a call for comments on an import of WRI data for 6 countries
in the Congo Basin (Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Central African Rep.
(CAR), Gabon, Dem. Rep. of Congo (DRC) and Republic of Congo). It
seems that only Cameroon and, maybe,
Hi, Saul:
The most common activity to which you can contribute to HOT is mapping
through the HOT Tasking Manager [1].
There are lots of jobs you can choose from. I would advise you to start
with a job that you find easy, and follow carefully the instructions.
If you need learning material, you m
Hi Pierre:
I like this schema. Only two questions:
What do you mean with evaluation and revision?
Why not the event in 3rd and type of object at the end?
Cheers,
Rafael.

Hi, Thomas:
I don't see a way to measure the time they are mapping. For example,
they can make changes to the map during 30 minutes or an hour but upload

Forgot to say that I agree with Russell: It would be very important to know
which organizations are interested or are already working in relief efforts

Hi all:
Bing/Mapbox OSM limits seem outdated, at least for Samar island (the one
I checked). Now they cover many more areas of the island.

Cheers,
Rafael.

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
Impressive, Andrew!
This should be recorded as yet another excellent example of the use of the
data we produce by humanitarian data consumers. It will surely make happier
the volunteers already mapping, and attract new mappers to the HOT jobs.
Thank you,
Rafael.

Hi all:
For your information, the UNMIL Liberia place nodes import (TM job 652)
has been already completed.
A big thank you to all the contributors, and specially to Ralf Stefan
and Blake Girardot, who helped importing/merging the majority of those
14,000 nodes into the OSM database.
Cheers,
Ra
