[talk-ph] suggest a new mapping party event

[Eugene Alvin Villar]

One suggestion I can give is the McKinley Hills area in Taguig, south of the
American Cemetery. This is still mostly pristine unmapped area in OSM and
Google Map Maker without any updated satellite imagery in Yahoo! or Google
(at least for their default base imagery [the historical imagery collection
that is available through Google Earth has more newer imagery]).

While a couple of experienced mappers can do this area in one morning (and
I'm actually tempted to go to the side streets having only driven through
the main road before), I think having a Mapping Party in this area with
media, bloggers, and OSM newbies will provide a good educational experience.
Maybe only 3 hours of surveying then 3 more hours of presentations,
lectures, and hands-on editing is needed.
