[OSM-talk-be] Announcement of an OpenStreetMap-project: playground areas in Antwerp

[Pieter Vander Vennet]

Hello everyone,

Via this email, I would like to announce to you all that we will be 
doing a project for /Provincie Antwerpen/ (Province of Antwerp).

For this project, we will

- create an interactive map of playgrounds, play-areas, parks and sport 
pitches based on MapComplete. People will be able to see those and add 
information about those POI based on presets.
- Conflate* data provided by the province about playgrounds, play 
forests etc... into OpenStreetMap
- Promote the project by means of videos and a printed map, based on OSM.

*The data provided by the province of Antwerp contains information about 
~230 playgrounds. I will check them one by one and add the missing 
playgrounds onto OSM (I expect only a few of them to be missing though). 
There will be some follow-up emails about the tagging scheme of some of 
those, and if a substantial amount of playgrounds turn out to be 
missing, I sent out another email to streamline the conflation. It 
definitively /won't/ be a (blind) import. /Please do not answer in this 
email thread for the tagging discusion./

The project is organised by:

- Createlli <https://createlli.com/>, who does the coordination and the 
design of the printed map.
- Sportpret VZW <https://vzwsportpret.be/>, a small organization in 
Antwerp focussed around sport and leisure time for kids and youth, esp. 
vulnerable youth. They will be making videos about some of the 
playgrounds and parks
- Pieter Vander Vennet (me) who will be creating a new theme for 
MapComplete <https://mapcomplete.osm.be/> for this project and who will 
make sure all the data from the Province is integrated correctly into 
OSM; feel free to give feedback to me if I make weird changes (via a 
changeset comment). In a later phase, MapComplete will make edits too 
based on presets. If you spot an error in the preset, let me know via 
the issue tracker <https://github.com/pietervdvn/MapComplete/issues>, an 
email <mailto:pietervdvn at posteo.net> or a PM on OSM 
<https://www.openstreetmap.org/login?referer=%2Fmessage%2Fnew%2FPieter%2520Vander%2520Vennet>.

If you have any more questions or remarks about this project, let me know!

Met vriendelijke groeten,
Pieter Vander Vennet
