[HOT] *** Emergency Request *** Guinea Conakry- Gueckedou, Macenta, Kissidougou

[Pierre Béland]

HI Michael,

Yes there are risks of 
collision while editing. The Task Manager helps to reduce this problem. 
But we stil have to be careful and find various ways to reduce risks of 
collision

If for example, you cross a 
primary road and decide to connect a new road, you have the risk to 
collide with someonelse editing at kilometers from you. Then, to be 
safe, it is better to save before you do this operation. You can also 
select this long road, and in JOSM file menu, select the item Update 
selected data.  You could also revise all the data aready loaded.

This will assure that you have the most recent version of this way. And save again.

Working this way with frequent updates of data, I select the option to keep the Changeset open after the upload. This avoid to
 create a changeset for just one or a few objects that I upload.


 

 
Pierre

Hi all,

my name is Michael and I support HOT as long as I've time. I'm quite
    experience with satellite image interpretation (and crisis mapping,
    professionally)  and I startet to map for task 463 in the north west
    of Guéckédou. While uploading I got a version conflict. This is
    probaly due to parallel working with task 465 (higher resolution
    imagery) for the same area. Just want to highlight this issue and I
    dont know if that problem is already solved (or if that is a problem
    at all).

best regards,
Michael

Hi all, 
 
Sorry for not having given any update earlier today and thanks a lot for the energy you guys are already deploying.
 
High resolution satellite imagery has been ordered from Astrium archives. We will hopefully receive it soon. I received confirmation that the order was received, but I cannot yet confirm whether we are getting the images tonight.
 
The rights to the imagery are such that the openstreetmap community will be able to use it for digitizing.
 
OSM France will be taking care of hosting and sharing the imagery as soon as we get it (thanks guys!).
 
I have seen some digitizing did take place today around Kissidougou, we’ll make sure the field is aware of those updates.
 
I’ll keep you posted as soon as we get update for the imagery.
 
Best regards
Audrey

Hi, 

yes it was a short notice, involved yesterday evening, we
            found a solution for them and now they can work.

We will have a license also for OSM as well so it is fine
            for those small area.

All the Best FredM
