Hi Russ and Humberto, hi list!<br>
<br>
Starting on April 21st (around 2am Ecuador time), I will be
gathering 20 GIS-people for further training (Kassel, Germany).<br>
<br>
My plan is to train them in JOSM and help with the mapping efforts
for Ecuador. Via Andrew buck I am told new imagery will be available
soon, with new tasks coming up.<br>
<br>
If there is something we can map or re-map/correct ( squaring
buildings etc.) from afar, please let us know.<br>
<br>
The current projects look they might be finished by 2am, so I want
to makes sure we can actually help you this way. If not, just say
so. If there is something that needs some more training before being
done, we might be able to arrange that. Sadly we have no spanish
speakers available.<br>
<br>
I will check tonight and tomorrow (German time) early morning for
news.<br>
I entered the Mapathon into the list as requested.<br>
<br>
All the best, <br>
<br>
Andreas <br>

<p class="MsoNormal">You can help us coordinate this response!
The easiest way is to help us capture ‘dynamic’ information,
such as news reports; but more importantly – Mapathons. We
typically capture this information on an event wiki-page, and
we are currently getting this one a bit more organized. Right
now the wiki is in both English and Spanish, and both versions
are being updated by the teams in their respective languages –
so yes, they are different at the moment. So whichever
language you are more comfortable with, please add your
mapathon and news stories, etc. here: <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2016_Ecuador_earthquake"><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2016_Ecuador_earthquake">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2016_Ecuador_earthquake</a></a>
- or more specifically under the Mapping Events section (i.e.
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2016_Ecuador_earthquake#Mapping_Events">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2016_Ecuador_earthquake#Mapping_Events</a>)
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This will both help people find your event,
but also help the coordinators know when there will be events,
validators to know when to expect high volumes of new
data/mappers, etc. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Happy Mapping! (and wiki-editing :)<o:p></o:p></p>
