Anyone mapping (on the ground) in Ghana and/or involved in community mapping there? A member of my family is going there shortly and emailed me: "I'm looking at the Kakum national park and surrounding area (5-10km). I'm most interesting in doing some mapping with the communities - participatory mapping. I doubt much has been done, but if you know of anything or anyone working in that area it'd be useful to be put in touch." I have looked at the Ghana page on wiki but it looks inconclusive and out-of-date. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ghana Can also show him http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/oooc but suspect many of the Ghana entries are armchair mappers.
