Hi,
I think there is a gap between the training available from the various
sources such as LearnOSM & someone reaching the stage of feeling
confident to map for HOT. Although we tend to think of new mappers with
no experience at all, it also extends to mappers who are used to mapping
their 'o
As a test to see how successful it would be, I'm interested in having a
project / Task which is marked up as suitable for new mappers. The
squares should be much smaller in size, such that we anticipate the new
mapper can complete a square within 15 to 20 minutes. In the perfect
world that squar

Thanks for your thoughts on this. I am passing them on & will try to act

Hi,
I wonder if a kind of FAQ about aerial imagery interpretation wouldn't

Ralph,
Thanks for the offer of help - you're likely to see a request for help
approaching the 30th September when we have another Missing Maps Project
Mapathon in London.
I'm really hoping that Blake can make progress on a guide to satellite
imagery - it's been on my todo list for some time,
Hi Nick and Volunteers,
On Saturday morning, from 900 to 1300 UTC, we'll be having another small
mapathon/mapping party in Kinshasa in order to edit Ebola affected area in
DRC, using some new imagery. Nearly all of the participants will be
beginners, so I am planning to create another task with sm
Claire,
I may be able to help a bit at the start of the session, but I have a
commitment for most of the day & evening - if there are any outstanding
squares for validation I will try to join in later at night.
Could I suggest we try to keep it as close to normal as possible - if

With 1,132 contributors to the West Africa Activation so far, plus many new

Thank you for your message. It's good to know that research is taking
place at such a level.
