<div>Hello imports team,<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My name is Justus from <a
href="http://spatialcollective.com/" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">Spatial Collective</a>. For the past
two years, we have been working with the Commission for Lands
and the State University of Zanzibar to digitize all of the
buildings on the Zanzibar Archipelago. We used the 7cm drone
imagery provided to us by our partners. We have been able to
create the first official comprehensive building dataset
(+350,000 buildings) of Unguja Island that is currently being
utilized by the government for various initiatives, including
securing tenure. During this time, we have had very long
discussions with the Government regarding opening the data to
OSM. We are happy to say that after two years, the Commission
for Lands approved the opening of the data (building shapes)
in OSM. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Therefore, I am writing to you to share our intent to
upload all the digitized buildings to OSM. So far, we have
been able to achieve the following:-</div>
<div>
<ol>
<li style="margin-left:15px">We have created and shared our
import plan through the <a
href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Zanzibar_Building_Import"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">Zanzibar building
import</a> page. </li>
<li style="margin-left:15px">We are in the process of
obtaining the final permissions from the Commision of
Lands who are the official data owners. This includes
official import approval and licencing permission for ODbL
compatibility.</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div>As contributors, I want to share with you a sample of our
buildings dataset (in osm ready format) and links to the drone
imagery (available on <a href="https://openaerialmap.org/"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">OpenAerialMap</a>).
Feedback on the quality of the dataset is highly appreciated.
Additionally any advice on dealing with such a large
undertaking is welcome.</div>

Hi Justus, only 2 speedy things:<br>
- first I think that the source tag better should go only on
changeset of import and not on any single object<br>
- the buildings multipoligons are not correct: the building tag must
go on multipoligon and not on building outer poligon<br>
<br>
