Hi everyone, We are really sorry for being late to send u the result of Mapping Party on last 18th July:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/HanoiMappingParty2009 Around 15 people assisted to the conferences and to the party, with 5 GPS they divided themselves into 5 groups of 3 people each. On behalf of the party's organization, thank you very much for those who attended and recorded all the data during 2 hours in the hot weather as well as the pollution of Ha Noi's roads. You can check out some pictures about our activity on that day here: http://tinyurl.com/OSMparty1 <http://tinyurl.com/OSMparty2> http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=92438&id=536733262&l=bf006cf891 Also here you'll find videos of the presentations: http://hanoi.centre-linux.org/article.php3?id_article=108 Aaron Straut from Flickr helped us after the StateOfTheMap2009 (probably after attending to *The State of Vietnam<http://www.slideshare.net/khanhlnq/state-of-vietnam>presentation) and he added in FLICKR * Vietnam <http://www.flickr.com/places/vietnam/>, the OSM tiles for Ha Noi<http://www.flickr.com/map?place_id=L.CstOiYA5_7VNSt> and Ho Chi Minh City <http://www.flickr.com/map?place_id=3wLzgz6YA5ns4Pn0> We are now thinking to make another Mapping Party this time in Ho Chi Minh City, and attract more people, and learn from our mistakes, experience, etc. After the meeting, the number of people update information on OSM has increased rapidly. There are more streets and POI points (useful spots: restaurants, hotels, hospitals,...) have updated. You can check out the results of your own contribution here: http://osm.org/go/4dterHJI- There is one more interesting thing, one third of the participants on that day were female ;) Right now, we still have a bit of the budget and GPS. If anyone has some spare time and loves mapping, please contact us here: Lê Viết Thanh Email: lethanh...@gmail.com Vietnamese Cell: 0984.468.147 Or you can participate in the Vietnamese OSM community (operating by mailing list) at http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-vi to get helped as well as exchange all the matters about OSM Regards, Ivan Garcia, OSM Mapper ;)
