Re: [HOT] Protecting girls at risk of FGM in Tanzania by mapping their villages - International Womens' Day event

Hi Janet, Pete and Rafael After many iterations, I'm now at a stage where I'm happy with the spreadsheet formula I created to open the data with JOSM. I believe once JOSM is set up, it gives a way better user experience. I opted to create a square for the school grounds, instead of a node that

Hello everyone, It was great working together for this cause! [image: :boom:] Together we have added *320139* nodes and *8189* ways in this region. More details about this can be found in this query : http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/eSM [image: screen shot 2016-03-09 at 7 24 27 pm]

Re: [HOT] Protecting girls at risk of FGM in Tanzania by mapping their villages - International Womens' Day event

Hey Pete, It might be better to have the data as a CSV instead so when you add the data to josm it doesn't get confused and merges into your existing osm layer. Ideally we should set up the data that it only downloads the subset of the tasking manager tile, this can be added in the individual

The data team at Mapbox is currently working on the TM. We're tracking our observations here: https://github.com/mapbox/mapping/issues/159 One of the issues with using the TM was that it is very hard to spot the location of schools in the import layer without losing context of the task area. We

Re: [HOT] Protecting girls at risk of FGM in Tanzania by mapping their villages - International Womens' Day event

Hi Denis, this is amazing. I have been looking for a tasking manager for field data! I have a question though, for you, or anyone on the list... I open my schools file in JOSM and also open my tile of OSM data, but at some point the two seem to merge. Then, when I come to upload my changes, I am

Re: [HOT] Protecting girls at risk of FGM in Tanzania by mapping their villages - International Womens' Day event

Yesterday I created a formula to make it easy to add a node automatically with the right tags in JOSM. This made the spreadsheet very slow though, so I removed them again. You can copy/paste them to the rows you are going to work with. I added a comment in the header column: Please copy this

Re: [HOT] Protecting girls at risk of FGM in Tanzania by mapping their villages - International Womens' Day event

Denis, that is amazing! Couple of things to note: - using the TM it becomes a JOSM specific task and requires a bit of experience to be able to work with multiple layers - instructions could be improved on how one uses the school data layer as a reference. What if someone decides to

Hey Janet, This is a great cause and it would be really nice to see this data added to Tanzania! I've set up a Tasking Manager to make it easier to track the progress of your contributors. I can add you as a Project Manager for you to add any extra details to the Task. *Tasking ManagerMapping

Re: [HOT] Protecting girls at risk of FGM in Tanzania by mapping their villages - International Womens' Day event

Hi, to make things easier I added another column to that spreadsheet. It contains a formula and with a bit of hocus pocus this becomes a clickable link. Now if you have JOSM running AND remote control is enabled AND an edit layer is open, a node will appear near a school in Tanzania, like magic.

Hi Max, Janet, The process for doing a mass import into OSM is pretty well defined and it takes at least a few weeks to make it happen. The guidelines can be seen here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines I think this project as presented is actually a very good way to get
