>>
>> Read the Introduction AND the Instructions carefully before Contributing.
>>
>> 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!
>>
>>
>> A PDF of these instructions is available. Please email me.

>> OpenStreetMap Instructions
>> • 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

>> • Change brightness to 100% in "Background Settings" on the right

>> • When finishing up a tile (press ‘Stop Mapping’ if there is more

>> 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
