[Talk-cz] MissingMaps million buildings for tanzania

[Jiri Hubacek]

Ahoj všem,

rád bych přeposlal email od Marcela (člena disastermappers heidelberg
[1]), se kterým jsme se několikrát viděli na mapathonech. Vypadá to, že
pracují na importu většího množství dat do OSM, kdyby to někoho
zajímalo/chtěl se zapojit.

> Hey Jiri,
> 
> am back at the GIScience Institute and we came across an intersting  task,
> I hope you may can support. We currently got access to an automatic
> generated dataset of building footprints from digitial globe for tanzania.
> Now we think of ways to import that data to OSM.
> The solution should be able to:
> 
>    - provide footprints to users for evaluation like a tasking platform
>    - user can evaluate footprints as
>       - yes footprint resembles an building on satellite imagery
>       - no footprint doesn't resemble an building, theres nothing
>       - shape doesn't match the building object, user shall manual correct
>       the shape
> 
> May that can be (partly) realized as a JOSM plugin. And you guys from the
> czech community were the first people I could think of with expertise in
> JOSM hacking. Would you like to join a skype call tomorrow at 12.30 to join
> the discussion?
