Jean Guilhem and all.<br><br>Just got back on-line: all the people who worked on the Health Facility themes want this thematic layer in osm as compehrensive in the most timely manner both:<br>- (i) in terms of coverage of geo features: this is addressed by the data conflation work Kate Chapman and others including Sahan, US Health Govt, WHO and WHO-PAHO were involved in and which lead to this release by David.<br>
Kate was working on a conflation of this superset with OSM and I think we have to wait on her updating us on the status of the work to act collectively in an efficient manner. She'll be up soon (living in US Est Time).<br>
- (ii) in terms of semantic interoperability: this is being addressed through the data modeling and coordination work I an running on this Health object with Kate Chapman, David Smith, Andrew Turner, WHO experts and Emergency coordinators, GIS Coordinators from GIS-NGOs deployed on the ground. I'll be integrating this last set of attributes elements from PAHO to the data model and issue a new version available on the wiki at <br>
URL<br><a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Tags#Humanitarian_Data_Model_1.6_.28these_will_be_mapped_to_OSM_tagging.29">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Tags#Humanitarian_Data_Model_1.6_.28these_will_be_mapped_to_OSM_tagging.29</a> <br>
This has to be seen as the formulation of field requirements for health facility geodata management in the perspective of OSM being closely tied to this new phase of the humanitarian response with more contents generated and shared from on the ground experts.<br>
Sahana through the portal shared by David allows for online data entry by Field Health practitioners.<br>Kate ensured a way to refresh OSM attributes with this field contributed contents.<br>On top of that WHO and PAHO are considering using directly OSM Editors to manage this data and relay on OSM DB for this operation at the condition of relying on interoperable HFacs tags.<br>
This is not small stuff and to allow this to happen again shortly, let's wait for Kate to give us a status of her work and once the attributes contents are on the wiki let's look at our tagging for this Health Fac layer which should not be too difficult since the OSM MapFeatures coverage of Health Care-related objects is limited.<br>

Isn't it a kind of emergency in itself to have the points, with precise
location, name, and unambiguous ID in the OSM data base ? For use on

Hi there<br>
<br>
Thanks Jean Guilhem for forwarding this post on this fundamental asset,
before embarking into any bulk upload and exposing ourselves to double
risk of duplication and data losses , we shall hear back from Kate
Chapman who had been involved in the work of the group making this
resource available and on conflating it with the OSM data base.<br>
<br>
We shall also look at the semantic aspect of this conflation work and
make sure the tags we will be setting for the HFacs description besides
the Unifying Unique ID set by the <span style="font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 20px;">Ministère
de la Santé Publique et de la Population (MSPP)</span>
are interoperable with the ones used in the World Health Organization
(Geneva) and PAHO (Pan American World Health Organization).<br>
Since both organizations are envisaging to use the osm platform to
manage this Health Facility layer at the condition of relying on
interoperable tags. <br>
<br>
I'll be reverting to the group soon with the "final" list of proposed
values, a first unfortunately incomplete set is readable on the HT wiki
