[Talk-ca] Jasper mapping

[Daniel Bégin]

There is no project that I am aware of. I was already mapping in Jasper area when the fire struck. There is at least one other contributor that did most of the job. I do not know for them,  but I personally used most recent Sentinel 2 images (false colors) to interpret burned areas in the city. AFAIK, Sentinel images can be used in this context.

It would normally be done with something like the HOT task manager or someone hosting it.

You need a source of upto date imagery licensed for OSM to work from and it's best if you know what the people on the ground would like mapping.

I saw the map of Jasper AB has been updated to reflect the terrible fire damage, but after some looking around I didn't find a project about this or other Canadian wildfires.  Is there one?  Is there a place where people are coordinating such work?  I won't be able to help, but I'm curious to see how it's done.

Many thanks to those who are doing this work.

Bill
