[Imports] Import building footprints Lopa & Lingo

[Pierre Béland]

Hi Jorieke,
There was no detailed examination of the data quality on the OSM DRC mailing list.  What is the image quality and what is the quality of buildings automatically traced from this imagery ? Are they orthogonalized or not ?

We only have access to a DropBox directory to download shapefiles and no access to the imagery used to trace the buildings.
I suggest that you provide link to the imagery and access to smaller chunks of data in OSM format has it is planned to be used for the import.
Regard
 
Pierre

Dear all,
 
If you would have other suggestions or feedback, please let me know. Otherwise we’ll go ahead with the preparation of the import and we’ll start with it after the weekend.
 
Best wishes, 
 
Jorieke

Dear import list, 
 
  
 
We would love to import a dataset of building footprints in Lopa and Lingo in the Ituri province in the East of DRC. It concerns a dataset of 29,620 building footprints, detected automatically by our partner Salzburg University on imagery of January 2020. We have tried to write an import plan as good as we could, so are now also interested to hear your feedback.
 
  
 
Please find the wiki page here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lopa_%26_Lingo_building_footprints
 
And the direct link to the raw data here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/vp6sffkmkcrc51t/AABc4d2uM4XaqGzdTVYgtBpfa?dl=0
 
  
 
I have shared and discussed the proposal already with the OpenStreetMap DRC community. For the discussion on the OSM DRC mailinglist see here:https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-cd/2020-July/thread.html 
 
At the OSM DRC mailing list was suggested to add the source tags on the object itself since there will be happening another import in the area. Could someone have a closer look at them, is the proposed usage of them a right one?
 
  
 
Thanks a lot! 
 
  
 
Jorieke
