[HOT] DRC ebola response: urban mapping in Likati

[nicolas chavent]

Hi Claire,

Thanks for the daily mapping priority udpate
The #Map4Ebola wiki [1] has been udpated for coordinating this
OpenStreetMap response to Ebola.

>From Lomé (Togo), in our 2 weeks OIF-funded capacity building mission (OSM,
Free GIS and opendata ), our West African mapping collective of 35 mappers
from Mali, Niger, Burkina, Ivory Coast, Togo, Benin and France has been
able to keep his #map4eobla mapping up 1h30/2h00 a day as part of our
regular activities.

We will hold an additional 2hours mapping session tonight.

Excellent day to all
Best,
Nicolas
