Hi Severin and all others, Although I practically stopped working on OSM in CAR, I am still following the list and read your Wiki-page-style how-to with interest (reading it I realised I didnt make any of the errors you mentioned which is nice :) ). I hope to be able to contribute more in the c

HOT, where the data is more importand than normal mapping as it is an emergency situiation with (hopefully) more inexperienced mappers, validation is needed I think. Regards, Theodin Am 02.02.2014 19:46, schrieb Pierre GIRAUD: > Hi all, > > It's been a while now that I've s

mappers validate a tile 2-3 times second an experienced mapper validates it again blocks it and marks it as done. But maybe this process is too much work. Regards, Theodin Am 04.02.2014 00:38, schrieb Severin MENARD: > > > Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2014 05:46:50 -0800 (PST) > From:

Re: [HOT] Hot Export tool: roundabouts disappearing?

Hi, I think it would be better, although maybe more time consuming, to fix the export and not start adding / changing things in OSM that are against the current and well established scheme. But as i have no idea how to do that or whom to ask. Simeon Am 23.09.2013 13:12 schrieb Claire Halleux:

Re: [HOT] what to do by clouds

2013-11-11 Thread Theodin
Hi, I had the exact problem several times while mapping in africa and I did this: a) If the cloud is small: highway across with a fixme=bad course due to cloud coverage b) If a larger area is covered by clouds: leave it blank and maybe add a fixme= cloud coverage to the last point of the way
