Hi, A very interesting talk by Harry Wood last SOTM2011 (I was on the other room presenting State of the PH during that time). Blog and link to videos and slides here: http://www.harrywood.co.uk/blog/2011/10/10/sotm-talk/
The main message is that while some areas are getting enormous level of detail the coverage seems to be very uneven (slides 43 onwards). I think this is happening in some areas in the Philippine map. Some mappers are doing micro-detail mapping (I'm guilty myself) while in other places, data is barely updated if updated at all. Micro-detail mapping is good but it is very difficult for new mapper s to contribute to these areas leaving the impression that is is already complete. Should we go for detail or even coverage? Where do we draw the line? -- cheers, maning ------------------------------------------------------ "Freedom is still the most radical idea of all" -N.Branden wiki: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/ blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
