[OSM-dev] Workflow for bulk upload of GPX files

[Ajay Singh1]

Hi Joost,

Thanks for your help. I'm exploring HOTOSM's tasking-manager for this task.
Here also, we get to break down our task into smaller tasks and can be
better tracked. Also, I'm trying to get in touch with other mappers to get
some help here.

Is there anybody you know of who has prior experience with this process?
