I've suggested other areas that are "close enough but not too far" from the Ortigas area
1. EDSA-Pioneer-Boni Avenue intersection: http://sautter.com/map/?zoom=17&lat=14.57255&lon=121.0472&layers=0B0000TFFFFF There are new "developments in the area, specifically in the Pioneer side (Robinsons Cybergate, Light Residences, Pioneer Woodlands) 2. Area between Boni-Pionner intersection and Kapitolyo: http://sautter.com/map/?zoom=17&lat=14.57297&lon=121.05339&layers=0B0000TFFFFF The streets are complete, but it lacks POI's, buildings and landuse. Maybe one of us should hand out OSM fliers to passers-by [if they're interested] ( http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:OSM-PH_Flyer_2010-03-19.pdf ) Tony Montana: Me, I want what's coming to me. Manny Ribera: Oh, well what's coming to you? Tony Montana: The world, chico, and everything in it. ----- http://ianlopez1115.wordpress.com/ --- On Sat, 5/15/10, Eugene Alvin Villar <sea...@gmail.com> wrote: From: Eugene Alvin Villar <sea...@gmail.com> Subject: [talk-ph] Micro Mapping Party in Ortigas-Mandaluyong on May 22 To: "OSM" <talk-ph@openstreetmap.org> Date: Saturday, May 15, 2010, 10:22 AM Hi guys, I really don't think we could push through with the Corregidor Mapping Party. Planning was mostly nonexistent and I don't think many people are willing to spend a large amount of money for the ferry trip and the possible overnight stay in the hotel on Corregidor. Let's postpone that island for a while. In the meantime, I suggest we tackle parts of Metro Manila that are still incomplete: 1. Mandaluyong-Shaw area: http://sautter.com/map/?zoom=17&lat=14.58246&lon=121.04721&layers=B00000TFFFFF This area of Mandaluyong is still missing a lot of streets because they are covered by clouds in the Yahoo satellite imagery. 2. Ortigas CBD: http://sautter.com/map/?zoom=17&lat=14.58448&lon=121.05964&layers=B00000TFFFFF In contrast to the Makati CBD, Ortigas is still pretty blank in its building coverage. 3. Metrowalk-Ortigas Home Depot: http://sautter.com/map/?zoom=17&lat=14.58647&lon=121.06578&layers=B00000TFFFFF Yahoo's satellite imagery in this area predates the large retail construction here so it would be nice if we can map this new development. One nice thing about this is that these three areas are near each other and since this is Ortigas, meeting up would be easier. And after the on-the-field surveying, let's meet up after and have that newbies tutorial session that Carlos suggested. What do you guys think? :-) Eugene -----Inline Attachment Follows----- _______________________________________________ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
