Unfortunately hi-res bing imagery is only available up to the western edge of Kalemie. So no further upstream than this: http://osm.org/go/lzXLsgS5--?m=    We can't really do much with task squares to the west of that

I just set up a new Job: http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/312
If you think that the area currently defined as a big square should be
set more precisely don't hesitate to send me the shapefile.
Also, don't hesitate to ask if the description has to be modified.
