The results are really impressive, but we can<br clear="none">> certainly do even better.<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> As for the Communication Working group (for
those interested, please fill<br clear="none">> ASAP its Doodle <http://doodle.com/3545epmy63x72gvk>) we could start with a<br clear="none">> kick-off meeting on Mumble
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mumble>,<br clear="none">> and here is a Doodle to set it:<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> http://doodle.com/hpwkwqiregdi7b6i <http://doodle.com/hpwkwqiregdi7b6i><br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> This meeting and the ones that will follow aim at being a time to exchange<br clear="none">> on this thrilling topic, review the experiences, documents, procedures and<br clear="none">> set goals to be achieved for the next meeting. Because yes, a Working Group<br clear="none">> is a group that works, that means between the meetings. And actually, it is<br clear="none">> already happening: eg there are (more and more) people working on data<br clear="none">> validation, both through setting procedures and monitoring the freshly<br clear="none">> created data.<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> I see 4 main topics around the Activation (but would be pleased to
get<br clear="none">> other suggestions):<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> 1. All the *activities* and *documents* involved in an Activation. In the<br clear="none">> past the Activation Working Groups mostly
focused on how Activations are<br clear="none">> triggered and start, what we could review based on the last experiences.<br clear="none">> Crisis monitoring is certainly something we could add, in order not to<br clear="none">> forget crisis of smaller range or simply not highly covered by the medias.<br clear="none">> Also technical aspects like: define and prioritize AOIs (Areas of<br clear="none">> Interests) and mapping goals, track and monitor the mapping progresses, and<br clear="none">> set thin, flexible and efficient processes, tools, and wiki templates, etc.<br clear="none">> But also share and document how to maintain and even grow the contribution<br clear="none">> of the OSM contributors and communities, by communicating with them (like<br clear="none">> this Working Group will do), proposing more different kinds of tasks to do<br clear="none">> or setting joint events.<br clear="none">> <br
clear="none">> 2. The *beneficiaries*, that means the humanitarian stakeholders. We need<br clear="none">> both to make them aware of the data we produce and to make the data
useful<br clear="none">> and easy to use for them, taking more into account their needs, constraints<br clear="none">> and tools. I got recent feedback from the GIS officers in the UN that I<br clear="none">> will share.<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> 3. The *data*. What needs to be mapped is quite known, but how to do it to<br clear="none">> make it as clean and efficient as possible. That links to the mapping<br clear="none">> instructions and the<br clear="none">> validation<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Tasking_Manager/Validating_data>but<br clear="none">> also to how the data can be reused by the humanitarian stakeholders.<br clear="none">> There a lot of potential improvements to propose not only raw data but eg<br clear="none">> thematic dataset, what the HOT Exports can already potentially provide (in<br clear="none">> link with the Technical Working Group).<br clear="none">> <br
clear="none">> 4. Last, but really not least is to *make more OSM contributors know* about<br clear="none">> the procedures and tools used to map, monitor, communicate and activate an<br clear="none">>
OSM community, and expand the number of contributors in the Activations,<br clear="none">> according to everyone's interest(s). This implies connecting with local OSM<br clear="none">> communities when possible, talk with them and provide them documentation<br clear="none">> and online training. Eg in Lubumbashi after Jorieke's stay, the contact<br clear="none">> with the local OSM community has been maintained and voluntary online<br clear="none">> training has been and will be provided through Mumble. So now, they are<br clear="none">> continuing the mapping (see https://twitter.com/OSM_L) and will take an<br clear="none">> active part on the Mapping in London on Saturday. And if ever a crisis<br clear="none">> unfortunately hits Lubumbashi in the future, they will be able to trigger<br clear="none">> the worldwide OSM community<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> Exciting, isn't it? And actually
a lot of topics and sub-topics. And some<br clear="none">> are certainly missing. This is why this Activation Working Group will not<br clear="none">> need one leader but
several facilitators, who, by their experience, skills<br clear="none">> and will, will make things go ahead on the topic(s) they care.<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> Let us make things move on and activate the AWG!<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> Sincerely,<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> Severin<br clear="none">> -------------- next part --------------<br clear="none">> An HTML attachment was scrubbed...<br clear="none">> URL: <http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/hot/attachments/20140502/e55c1eec/attachment.html><br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> ------------------------------<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> _______________________________________________<br clear="none">> HOT mailing list<br clear="none">> HOT@openstreetmap.org<br clear="none">> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot<br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> <br clear="none">> End of HOT
