</head><body><p>Hi,</p><p>We are <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Violaine_Do">Violaine</a> and <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Manonv">Manon</a> part of the <a href="https://www.missingmaps.org/">Missing Maps Project</a> with <a href="http://www.cartong.org/">CartONG</a></p><p>After years working and supporting UNHCR in camp mapping at CartONG, our Missing Maps team is happy to announce that we managed to get approval from UNHCR to transfer some of those data into OSM. This is a first step, of we hope, a more extended approach. <br> The UN Refugee Agency has requested the support of CartONG to import some of their site mapping data base into OSM in line with the data sharing dynamic that they want to promote.</p><p>We will start with a first pilot with <a href="http://maps.unhcr.org/en/apps/campmapping/index.html?site=MRTs004241">the camp of M’Bera in Mauritania</a> where the UNHCR had recently a field mission to collect and update data.</p><p>We would be very happy if could bring your constructive inputs about this, please have a look at wiki page dedicated for that, you will find the data transformation scheme we used.</p><p>The details are available on the wiki here (<a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UNHCR_refugee_camp_mapping_Import">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UNHCR_refugee_camp_mapping_Import</a>) and you can also check the Data model preparation here (<u><a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UNHCR_refugee_camp_mapping_Import/Datamodel">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UNHCR_refugee_camp_mapping_Import/Datamodel</a></u> )</p><p>We are looking forward for feedbacks from you before we proceed (last days of December). Please let us know if there are any comments, questions or concerns.</p><p>Best,</p><p>Violaine, Manon & CartONG team</p><div class="io-ox-signature"><p class="default-style"><a href="http://www.cartong.org"><img src="http://cartong.org/sites/cartong/files/signature_logo_slogan.png" alt="CartONG- Humanitarian mapping and information management"></a></p><p style="color: #648282; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: bold;">Manon Viou</p><p style="color: #648282; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: bold;"><strong>Coordinatrice projet Missing Maps</strong></p><p class="default-style"><span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Verdana;"><img src="http://cartong.org/sites/cartong/files/signature_mail.png" alt="Email:"> <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="mailto:m_viou@cartong.org">m_viou@cartong.org</a> |</span> <span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Verdana;"><img src="http://cartong.org/sites/cartong/files/signature_skype.png" alt="Skype:"> manon.viou</span><br><span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Verdana;"><img src="http://cartong.org/sites/cartong/files/signature_phone.png" alt="Phone:"> +33 (0)4 79 26 28 82 |</span> <span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Verdana;"><img src="http://cartong.org/sites/cartong/files/signature_mobile.png" alt="Mobile:"> +33 (0)7 83889839</span></p><p style="font-family: Verdana;"><img src="http://cartong.org/sites/cartong/files/signature_location.png" alt="Address:"> Chambéry, France - Lon: 05°55'24''N | Lat: 45°30'20''E</p><p><img style="width: 624px; height: 123px;" src="http://cartong.org/sites/cartong/files/GEONG_logo_signature_EN.png" alt="GeOnG 2018 - The humanitarian data forum - 29-30-31 October Chambéry, France" width="624" height="123"></p></div></body></html>
