with a lot of local consultation.<br>
<br>
We have universities in Africa, GIS is normally something that can
create wealth, can we identify those things on a map that would be
useful?<br>
<br>
There are very definite problems in Africa. One interesting point is
tax rates are lower in Africa than say Europe. If the locals are
spending their own tax dollars then hopefully they will take ownership
of projects such as health and education.<br>

<p><font face="Verdana">The Africa highway tagging is a result of
and created by HOT. It even has a request on the page not to
edit it's contents without consulting HOT. Not that it is bad,
at least it is something we can use as a guidance. But it is not
a result from a true local African community.</font></p>
