<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Thanks for looking at the data and sharing your thoughts!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">I’ve talked through the proposal with Claire from the OSM DRC community on a few calls and included this feedback in the proposal. Eg to include links to the import to the wiki page of OSM DRC, the
conflation of data or not, etc. And of course also our MSF team in Ituri is requesting to have this data in OSM, mostly to use it on OsmAnd, so you could see them as well as local community I discussed with. But yes, there hasn’t been that much discussion
on the DRC mailing list or here, hence I was asking you all for some more feedback. So thanks!!

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">The original imagery is with Z_gis at Salzburg University and not available for us to use.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">The buildings retrieved from the imagery are extracted automatically, but all received a manual treatment from the team at Z_gis. This means that all buildings are very nicely squared or circulized.
There are few issues with buildings touching each other or slightly overlapping each other, but the plan is to filter these out with a manual validation through JOSM. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">We’re still working on the smaller chunks of data. If there would be someone here who could tell me how to do that easily in Qgis, I’d be happy to hear that! Otherwise I have to wait for one of my
colleagues to share this with you… <o:p></o:p></span></p>
