[HOT] Protecting girls at risk of FGM in Tanzania by mapping their villages - International Womens' Day event

Hi Janet, Pete and Rafael

After many iterations, I'm now at a stage where I'm happy with the
spreadsheet formula I created to open the data with JOSM. I believe once
JOSM is set up, it gives a way better user experience.

I opted to create a square for the school grounds, instead of a node that
still needs to be converted to a closedway. I also updated

and I created a screencast:
https://www.twitch.tv/polyglot_openstreetmap/v/53241335

It's easy to move this square to where the school buildings are seen on the
imagery, and the improve way accuracy mode 'w' makes it to reshape it.

In the screencast I also explain how to install the buildings-tools plugin
and how to use it to add the buildings.

It's a bit late, but we weren't going to add 15000 schools in one day
anyway.

What I'm considering now, is to create a formula that adds such square
closedways for 10 schools at a time, in order to improve the workflow.

We should still make a proposal about this import though. What we did
yesterday can be seen as exploration of the data, I suppose.
I think the quality is reasonable. I guess it's normal that we can't find
some schools on the imagery that is a few years old by now.
