Dear HOT team,

we want to hereby inform you that we are organizing an Ecuador Mapping 
Event at the Geographical Institute, Berliner Str. 48, 69120 Heidelberg, 
on Thursday, 21st April.
We heartly invite everyone interested to join us in the lecture hall 
from 6 pm CEST, also see:
https://disastermappers.wordpress.com/2016/04/19/mapping-event-to-support-relief-efforts-in-ecuador/

We will start with a short mapping introduction and will then focus on 
the Ecuador activation tasks.

We are expecting many new, but also some experienced mappers, therefore 
we also want to use this chance to ask if there are already resources 
for Ecuador specific validation of the tasks?

Kind regards,

Melanie

>
> Using either a mouse or a trackpad (if you are accurate with your fingers), select a tile in the Tasking Manager and begin mapping.
>
> Zoom in to 40% using the + key. This will increase your accuracy.
>
> 1. Using the Area tool
> a. Trace the exact outline of the building touching all four corners. Accuracy is important.
> b. Identify a Building by the shadow it casts and the color of the roof.
> c. Buildings are often close together so be sure the corners do not touch (gray dot).
> d. Draw your Building as square as possible. Don’t make odd shapes.
>
> 2. On the left side of the Tasking Manager look for Building Features.
> Scroll down to Building and click.
> a. This will designate your trace as a Building.
>
> 3. Next, while the Building is still selected, press the ’s’ key.
> This squares the building and is an important step that must be done.
> a. If the building isn’t selected when ’s’ is pressed, “shed” will show. Go back and reselect the building and then press ’s’ again.
>
> Tips:
> Always square buildings!
> Save your work after tracing 10 to 20 Buildings. Save often!
> Keep track of your time. Log out (Stop Mapping button on the previous tab) every hour.
> You can then log back in to continue working on that tile.
> Don’t go off of your tile! Stay within the magenta square. It’s OK to map a building
> that’s slightly over the line.
> Work on a tile at 40% zoom for accuracy.
> Use your right hand to trace buildings and to click on Building while your
> left hand hovers over the ’s’ key.
>
> Any questions? Ask!

Then select the tile again, this appears to be important as I see duplicate buildings from different mappers and it is suspected the first mapper times out and a second mapper grabs the tile so two mappers are mapping the same area at the same time.

> 	• Start by making an account using FireFox or Google Chrome: http://www.openstreetmap.org/ <http://www.openstreetmap.org/> and make sure to check the allow public domain button
> 	• Zoom in somewhere and press the edit button in the upper left corner
> 	• Start the Walkthrough, (the walkthrough can also be accessed by clicking the help button on the right hand side of the screen)
> 	• Once you have done that head to the task manager and choose a task by searching for 'Ecuador'
> 	• http://tasks.hotosm.org/ <http://tasks.hotosm.org/>
> 	• Read the instructions carefully and then go to the contribute tab to sign out a tile, select the ID Editor from the drop down arrow, keep the instructions tab open to refer back to
> 	• Remember to save every 10 edits or so and use the changeset tag that is generated automatically and anything else that is requested in the Instructions tab e.g. source = Bing (this is found in the upper left corner after you press save)
> 	• Click, hold and drag the screen to pan around while editing
> 	• Click, hold and drag nodes on a feature to reshape it
> 	• When creating lines drag a node back into the previous node to delete a section
> 	• Control + Z and Control + Y work well for going back or forward respectively 1 edit (e.g. if you accidentally erase something hold Control + Z to bring it back)
> 	• Change brightness to 100% in "Background Settings" on the right of the ID editor, activating the minimap button may also be helpful for keeping track of where you are editing
> 	• When finishing up a tile (press ‘Stop Mapping’ if there is more to do in the tile or ‘Mark as Done’ if it is finished) it is a good habit to write a short comment about the features that you edited within that tile or if the imagery is missing a section, cloud cover etc.
> 	• If you forget to classify a feature and try to save it, there will be an error. Click on the error message to return to the untagged feature to classify it
> 	• Square buildings with the 'S' key after classifying them (create area, classify it as building, then press 's')
> 	• Make sure buildings do not overlap each other, zoom in very close if you think they may be touching
> 	• The 'W' key will turn data colors on and off so you can see under edits that have already been done
> 	• If you are just starting out, try not to delete data that others have created
> 	• Hotkeys for lines and areas are 2 and 3
> 	• If the imagery is offset, there is a 'fix alignment function' in background settings on the right of the screen
> 	• keep the Task manager INSTRUCTIONS tab open to refer back to whenever needed, this tab details how to classify features
> 	• If the tile is too big you can split it using the task manager
> 	• When creating road networks it's important that the roads are actually connecting to each other as it shows in the line segment of the walkthrough, try not to connect these road networks to other polygons (e.g. landuse = residential or administrative boundaries)
> 	• Add the hashtag #MapEcuador to the changeset comments that are automatically populated (after clicking save edits it is in the upper left hand corner of the screen)
