Hi, Some time back, Johan Van de Wauw wrote to this list to talk about mapping infrastructure for the homeless. Apparently, the group was very enthusiastic about OSM, as they are organizing a mapping party on the subject.
>From what I heard, the idea is to take already collected information and share it with OSM. I do not know exactly how they will do this, if they know enough about tagging schemes and external data use etc. From what I understand, the idea is definitely not just doing a massive import, but doing it bit by bit. Maybe Johan can clarify here, or you can ask Christophe Cloquet christo...@my-poppy.eu. The event will be February 27th, in Brussels. Registration is required: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/cartopartie-sans-abris-tickets-21114409768 Info als at the OSGeo wiki : https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo-BE-Cartopartie_sans-abri_27.02.2016 Anyone is invited, but I can imagine that more experienced mappers could be quite helpful. I would like to share this on our Meetup and Twitter accounts, but first I'd like to know more details about the event. Joost
