[HOT] [RFC] suggestions for HOT work

[Pierre Béland]

There are various ways that could contribute to map more 
rapidly some areas. The map could be thought to show the Imagery (what 
is to be mapped) and the OSM layer (what has been done so far).


For example, if the Satellite Imagery was added as one of the background 
layers in the Task manager map, the mappers could examine rapidly and 
focus on specific zones like the housing areas. It would be possible to 
compare rapidly the Imagery and OSM data if it was possible to show a 
transparent OSM layer over the Imagery layer.


We could also think of the possibility for the coordinator to highlight 
some square tasks to be treated in priority. These squares could be 
showed with a different color (yellow for example).
