The awesome(OSM) new mappers from Dumaguete (and other neighboring towns in
Negros Oriental) had been busy bees in the past few days.

All in all, the new mappers managed to achieve the following, between
20-24 August:
Loaded – nodes: 7095, ways: 775, relations: 15
Displayed – pois: 603, lines: 234, polygons: 219
Source: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/b7C

For comparison, between 1-16 August, the following updates occurred for the
same area:
Loaded – nodes: 2073, ways: 207, relations: 22
Displayed – pois: 49, lines: 31, polygons: 37

I'd like to acknowledge the following for their role in making August an
awesome(OSM) month for Dumaguete (and Negros Oriental):
*Asia Foundation and their local partners: Negros Oriental Provincial
Government, and the various local biker groups  for participating in the
"TAF-CfC crowd-sourced mapping using OpenStreetMap" workshop, 20-21
August. Participants of this introductory workshop is largely responsible
for the substantial new tourism-related POIs and edits from this area.
*Foundation University's OSM Appreciation Seminar, 22 August - Mr. Dean
Cinco, university president, Ms. Girlie Bernardez, Ms. Dae  Habalo,

Marcial, dean of the College of Computer Studies. Ms. Janice Forster,
chair of the I.T. department. I also acknowledge the efforts of Mr. Kirk
