[Talk-in] Mapathon as a part of OSMGeoweek (Nov 12-18)

[Chetan H A]

Hi
This is great initiative in mapping the villages. Thanks for it @Nikhil.
Also if you are mapping in Pune (only city), try to use ESRI imagery
(better than Bing/Mapbox Satellite and others). This is available both in
iD and JOSM editors.

@Shibu Narayan, using street level photos is nothing but using Mapillary (
http://mapillary.com/), a crowd sourced street photo project where you can
use it for mapping. I will be showing it on how to use it. :)


Best,
Chetan
