One of the <br>courses in our master program deals with OSM mapping of the Region West <br>in Camerun. We're aiming on two things: Final goal no. 1 is to fill <br>gaps and correct existing routes and their attributes mainly based on <br>satellite imagery. Secondly, goal no. 2 is a final one, too, but <br>contains basic work prior to our mapping process: We want to find or <br>develop tagging standards for Camerun which shall finally become <br>available at the OSM-page "Tagging guidelines by country".<br><br>So we're all together 15 students that start working on the road <br>network. BUT that's important for us:<br><br>1. We would like to get in contact with mappers who have already worked <br>on that before or doing it right now. We would like to share experiences <br>in order to avoid working and discussing on things that others have <br>already done or that has been already discussed. And of course: We want <br>to avoid interfering with mapping activities that are going on right now <br>in that region, but rather combine our efforts for the next few weeks in <br>order to produce a consistent output.<br><br>2. On which basis have the existing routes been tagged before? Where <br>there specific agreements for Camerun? What about the usability of the <br>criteria proposed on the "Highway Tag Africa"-page in the OSM-Wiki which <br>is initiated by HOT? What about the usability of "Référentiel <br>Géographique Routier" which can be seen on www.geocameroun.cm?<br><br>Finally, we would like our contributions to be substantial in order to <br>develop a standardized and reliable geoinformational fundament on which <br>further mapping can be consistantly conducted. So we're looking forward <br>to any advices!<br><br>Best regards from Germany! kamak<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>HOT mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:HOT@openstreetmap.org" href="mailto:HOT@openstreetmap.org">HOT@openstreetmap.org</a><br><a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot" target="_blank">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot</a><br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></body></html>
