[HOT] names for landuse=residential

[Suzan Reed]

Thank you for the nod, John. It would be nice to have you join us, John. Another solid and sane mapper would be welcome. When you get to that point, let us know and we can acclimatize you to the nuances of mapping in Mali. 

Jorieke, there are a lot of village names already in the project. I’ve only come across a few without names. Please let us know where the villages are and we will add names.

It sounds like you need a process, perhaps Dale can assist with Portable OSM?

You have Suzan and Jim both sane mappers, which is a lot more than many projects do, perhaps when I've finished 1087 and validating in 1390, and 1262 I'll swing by.

Hey John!

You mean something like this?

https://kc.kobotoolbox.org/jorieke/forms/Villages_koulikoro/map

My team here in Mali is collecting village names everytime they are in
the field now, so more and more names are coming in!

Feel free to add them on OSM, just add as source "CTB Mali"

And again a big thank you for the small but dedicated team who is
mapping in the region where we are working. Thanks Suzan, Jim and
Ralph! (It's task http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/1133 so if you would
like to help with this task, please give one of us a sign, then we can
coordinate!)

All my best greetings,

Jorieke
