[HOT] DRC ebola response: urban mapping in Likati

[Claire Halleux]

Hi everyone,

Thanks to Digital Globe, a new task is now online to map Likati town:
http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/3009

Likati is the biggest town in the area affected by this 8th ebola crisis
happening in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is also the place
where all the coordination of the response to the outbreak is now taking
place. There are several teams on the ground with new material and staff
coming in each day.
At the time, this is our highest priority area.

After several mapping projects in highly forested areas, this 5th one is
focused on urban mapping: buildings and residential roads.
The imagery is black and white so it's a bit less intuitive than usual, but
that is the best we could obtain in such a short time for this area.

If you are a validator, projects #2988, 2990 and 2991 still need you!

Thank you very much to the many contributors supporting this emergency
response,

Cheers

Claire
