<br>
I noticed a few buildings already mapped, like the ones in your powerpoint slide showing "significant" buildings, often with brightly colored roofs (blue, red, etc).<br>
<br>
And they had roof:colour=* tags on them already in OSM.<br>
<br>
Do you think those would help? It might help people find the buildings, or identify which building is mapped: "Oh the one with the red roof"<br>
<br>
But I do not know if the roof:colour=* information would be available to the people using our mapping data.<br>
<br>
Just wonder if you thought it would be a good idea or not. It is a small thing, but I liked the idea when I saw it.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

Hi everybody,<br>
<br>
First of all thanks a lot for mapping in the Bangladesh tasks! It will<br>
be of great help!<br>
<br>
And indeed, I should have made it clearer in the presentation. I'll try<br>
to do a review tomorrow.<br>
In big follow the instructions of althio:<br>
<br></span>
for appartment and other large buildings --> * building=yes*<br>
for big individual trees which serve as landmark --> *natural=tree*<span class=""><br>
but also bushes and a bunch of trees together which too serve as<br></span>
landmarks --> *natural=wood*<br>
for open areas it is okay to map --> *leisure=common* /(but you can use<br>
also a landcover <<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Landcover" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.<u></u>org/wiki/Landcover</a>>tag for<br>
open areas like --> natural=sand or landuse=grass)/<span class=""><br>
<br>
<br>
Further remarks and clarification:<br>
<br>
- on buildings; indeed it would be good to collect the levels but don't<br>
put effort in it for now. We first need the base map of roads and big<br>
landmarks. This is essential to do mapping on the ground.<br>
- In this case building=construction is also not recommended. Every day<br>
things are changing here. Besides this, buildings under construction<br>
have often already inhabitants. Often they are just building one more<br>
floor on top of the existing building. (Think back to the catastrophe in<br></span>
Rana Plaza <<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_Savar_building_collapse" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/<u></u>2013_Savar_building_collapse</a>>,<span class=""><br>
you get buildings ready to collapes anytime by building like this...) So<br>
just stick with building=yes for now.<br>
- the leisure=common tag we try to adjust this one during the mapping on<br>
the ground<br>
<br>
If you need more clarifications, if you have questions or if you have<br>
ideas to make all this even more smoothly, please give us a sign!<br>
<br>
Best greetings,<br>
<br>
Jorieke<br>

Hi Bouke Pieter,<br>
<br>
I will try to answer and Jorieke may refine later on.<br>
<br>
> For high (appartment)buildings I assume building=yes?<br>
<br>
OK.<br>
>From the instructions tab: map landmarks, large buildings, not<br>
small ones<br>
[tags]<br>
building=yes for rectangular & round buildings - trace the building<br>
outline<br>
building=construction for walls without a roof<br>
[note: I assume more refinement are possible as in<br>
building=residential or building=apartments but this is hard to tell<br>
from imagery and not requested in this project]<br>
[note 2: To Jorieke; maybe request additional tag for large buildings<br>
otherwise they will not stand out if small buildings are ever traced.<br>
Maybe height=* or building:levels=* even if it is approximate. Anyway<br>
I think this is valid for any mapping: building=yes/residential +<br>
building:levels=6..8..10..12 + source:building:levels=<u></u>estimate from<br>
imagery]<br>
[note 3: sometimes in other project, building=construction is not<br>
encouraged because construction seen in imagery may well be finished<br>
by now. So follow instructions project by project]<br>
<br>
<br>
> Trees: natural=tree?<br>
<br>
OK.<br>
from the powerpoint: map BIG trees (because they are landmarks,<br>
significant tree)<br>
[tags]<br>
natural=tree [I assume]<br>
<br>
<br>
> But how to do an open area? area=yes?<br>
<br>
No.<br>
from the powerpoint: map open spaces<br>
[tags]<br>
leisure=common [I assume, as usual practice for HOT]<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
