<br>
I am know collating my mental notes in preparation for the "State of<br>
the PH" lightning talk for SOTM2011. And since this is a community<br>
presentation, I might as well ask you on what we should be presenting.<br>
<br>
The primary source materials of my talk is the wiki [0,1,2] and of<br>
course, this list [3]. For sure the OSM-PH data has grown tremendously<br>
in the the past 2 years. There a number of factors that may have<br>
contributed to this growth. I would like to focus the presentation on<br>
on 4 main points. Perhaps you can help me develop the discussion.<br>
<br>
1. The osm-ph community. Who is the "community"? What characterize a<br>
PH OSMer? How do we map? What are the innovative ways we do to<br>
improve the map? Are the data users part of this community? Is the<br>
talk-ph list and discussions here a representative sample of the osm-ph<br>
community?<br>
<br>
2. How do we use the data? Some sample of data useage we can<br>
illustrate. Maybe a ph brewed mapping application? Or other ways you<br>
have used the data? If there are any,<br>
please provide a link or description and a screenshot.<br>
<br>
3. Issues and concerns. Why are we growing in some areas but not<br>
in others? How do you guage our relationship with other crowdsource<br>
mapping initiative in the country (google mapmaker, <a href="http://roadguide.ph" target="_blank">roadguide.ph</a>, wikimapia)?<br>
<br>
4. The future. How do you see the state of PH data in a year or two?<br>
What should be done to further improve and expand data coverage?<br>
<br>
If you any thoughts, just send them here or as a PM. Thanks!<br>
