[HOT] 7.9 earthquake in Nepal

[Pierre Béland]

It would be good to list in the wiki page the various particularities.
In the mountains, agriculture is often in terrasses, and the villages and houses spread all over the place. Often, there are only foot paths between the villages.

There are often foot suspension bridges like these two areas on the Trisuli river.http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/44686757#map=15/27.8088/84.7784&layers=Hhttps://www.openstreetmap.org/way/302710112#map=18/27.80964/85.01326

OSM actually has a lot of helipads mapped in the area already.  These
are 'proper' heli sites marked with a circle and an H, not just open
areas like we have been doing in west africa.  I went through this
morning and upgraded almost all of them from a node to a circular way,
so we can filter them by size, etc.  I expect there are some more
hiding in the area, however I think we already have pretty decent
coverage.
