Hello All,

In further continuation to our earlier message on map enhancements efforts
in Metro Manila, we wanted to inform local mappers and community that we
started the city this morning.
We also used the offset distance as appropriate for the change sets uploaded

Here are the change sets we worked on since morning today mapped with
respective offset distances used.  Will be of great help if anyone from the
team can have a quick review of a couple of them and confirm we are in the
right track with reference to using the offsets.  Thanks in advance

Changeset Number Offset Distance
61452499 1.2 m
61453192 1.2 m
61453920 1.2 m
61454492 1.2 m
61452621 87cm
61453227 87cm
61453842 87cm
61454488 87cm
61454136 2.3 m
61454560 1.1 m
61455283 1.1 m
Thanks
Lavanya
Grab Team
