Hi Florian,

We've finished the mapping in Honduras, Guatemala and Botswana. We have 2.5
large districts remaining in Zimbabwe, and one in Zambia. Cambodia and Laos
are currently going through Mapswipe but we estimate about 10 Cambodia
projects and about 30 in Laos. For this campaign we are mapping buildings
only, as this is what is needed most urgently for malaria elimination
campaigns. More detail on how the data is used here
<http://www.clintonhealthaccess.org/improving-impact-indoor-residual-spraying-southern-africa-data-driven-approaches/>.
However, it would be fantastic to improve the map in the future with roads.
It's likely HOT will be working on mapping for malaria elimination in
future countries.

A great visualisation to show progress of the mapping so far (over 1.7
million buildings mapped!) is here
<https://www.mapbox.com/malaria-mapping/#6.41/-18.659/24.888>.

There is still quite a lot of mapping left to do. Russ is working hard to
keep tasks constantly available at this link
<http://tasks.hotosm.org/?sort_by=priority&direction=asc&search=eliminate+malaria>
through
to the end of the campaign, and we have 7 more Mapswipe tasks in Laos.

Thanks very much to all those who have contributed to the mapping so far.
Feel free to get in touch with myself and/or Russ directly if you have any
more questions, there are more resources we can share on the impact of the
data in field projects.

Rebecca
