[Talk-tz] AI Assisted Road Mapping

[Jeff Underwood]

Hi all,



I'm Jeff, a GIS analyst leading the map editing team at Facebook.


We are planning to map roads around the cities of Arusha, Dar Es Salaam, Dodoma, Mbeya, Morogoro, Moshi, Mwanza, Shinyanga, Tanga, and Zanzibar in the near future in Tanzania.


We will be mapping missing roads using our AI assisted mapping tool, RapiD. You can read some more about it at our site http://mapwith.ai/ and give it a try yourself. Our Github explains the mapping process well for those that haven't tried it before. https://github.com/facebookmicrosites/Open-Mapping-At-Facebook/wiki



You can visit our OSM wiki page to view our past projects at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Facebook_AI-Assisted_Road_Tracing





If there is any local road tagging schemas or tricky situations we should look out for, I would love to hear about them.



I'm happy to answer any questions here or you can email us directly at osm at fb.com<mailto:osm at fb.com>.



Thanks for your time!
Jeff
