Mike, Claudia and all;

 

As usual, you can help us ‘time’ things by adding a link, etc. to the incident wiki-page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2016_Sri_Lanka_Floods#Mapathon_events

P.S. So sorry, have another business meeting at the same time, so won’t be at the Denver event :(

Hi Mike,

 

We have tasks 1914 and 195 already lined up, so worry not, you’ll have plenty to do :-) Our requested area of interest is massive so we broke it into three parts to make it more “digestible”. 

 

If task 1913 nears completion one of the tasking manager admins will “release” task 1914. If this is a concern mid-mapathon please contact Mikel Maron or Blake Girardot promptly and they’ll sort you out.

 

Cheers,

Robert

Blake,

 

We are having a mapathon this evening in Denver Colorado US.  We would like to help out with Sri Lanka.  It looks like the #1913 is rapidly progressing.  Will there be another similar Sri Lanka project posted, or is #1913 cover the entire impacted area?

 

Mike
