[HOT] Small Red Cross task

[Banick, Robert]

I should add that we will be collecting place names, building types and all the other local detail you'd expect as time allows and clean up whatever's left afterwards.

Subject: [HOT] Small Red Cross task

Hi All,

I'm currently in Nepal conducting a participatory assessment with the Nepal Red Cross. We're using OSM to collect participatory GIS data and have realized that the current base map is a little sparse on land uses, etc. that would help the community orient and locate key data. More details are up on the task below.

We were hoping that the HOT community could help us out with the task at http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/643. It's a really small task and hopefully a nice break from some of the more intense tasks that have gone up for all the recent disasters.

This is obviously lower priority than Ebola work etc., but I figured it might be a nice break for some and wanted to post it here.

Any help over the coming days would be most appreciated!

Best,
Robert
