Hi all:

A new manual import through the Tasking Manager is open for
experienced mappers, this time for the import of 24,587 educational
facilities (nurseries, primary and secondary schools, colleges...) all
around the country.

As the total number of nodes is very high, it was decided not to add
any contextual data as it was done in previous imports, starting with
the Central African Rep. UNICEF import. We will be able to add
contextual data, like facilities road access, facilities buildings,
settlement names (derived from the facilities addr:* tags), wikidata
tags, etc., after the import is finished, or maybe even during the
import, but using another TM project/s.

This import is open to everyone, but ***specially for the Uganda OSM
community***.

You can find the detailed workflow wiki for this import here [1].
***READING AND UNDERSTANDING THAT WIKI IS A MUST***, before you start
contributing.

At the beginning of the workflow wiki you have a Quick Reference, so
you don't have to read the whole wiki everytime you need to recall the
import steps.

Keep in mind that changesets that don't follow the rules (negociated
with the Uganda OSM community and the imports list) will have to be
reverted. Specially important is to use a dedicated OSM account (not
the regular account you use for regular mapping), and to add the
specific changeset tags of this import.

You should also read the official import wiki [2], specially for
tagging reference.

Happy mapping!

Rafael.
