[HOT] H.O.T OSM manual and learning OSM in Uganda

[Reinier Battenberg]

Hi,

During our first mappinday we had about 40 participants, and 3 walking 
routes. So, in order to prevent overlap, we tried to come up with 3 
different assignments, some of them, on each side of the road.

Gates, being very visible parts of all the walled compounds in Kampala, 
seemed like a good and simple starter feature.

The result does look horrible after rendering. But, this is how our 
neighbourhood is (not horrible, but gatewise): everybody has a gate. If 
you are lucky, as part of a short (service) road that leads to your parking 
space.  (lots of these plots are offices by now)

It might still be an idea to make a difference in the gate that is at our 
compound and the one the other Mountbattens have at theirs

because currently you cant tell the difference, can you?

rgds,
Reinier
