[Imports] [Talk-et] Ethiopia POI Import

[Alex (AddisMap.com)]

Hi,

I have been in touch with Binyam of the Ethiopian OSM Community on th
OpenStreetMap Ethiopia Telegram group and a short call.

> the gathered datasets between 2010-2016 are considered valuable. even though,  it is not that recent
> I also noticed some points overlapping with the existing features. Maybe as you said checking the data on a small aerial to get and idea of how many percent still could be valid is a good idea.

So we will basically try to go ahead with this import, in cooperation
with the local community.

The next step will be to evaluate which percentage of the points in
some sample areas are still existing and how many overlaps are there.
Then we will decide on how to go forward.

In the meantime I am wondering if there are any existing tools / apps
/ workflows to verify this data and import the verified data to OSM.
We are thinking about using the HOTOSM Tasking manager to subdivide
the area and then check on the ground. We are not sure yet how apps
like Vespucci can be used here to make this most efficient.

Kind Regards,

Alexander
