[OSM-talk] elaborate? | Re: Examples of good paid mapping?

[Mishari Muqbil]

Hi,

So I was one of the original complainants of Grab/Global Logic mapping
efforts.

It seems so far that they're doing much better now. We collaborated on a
workflow that aims for zero defects and no assumptions by remote mappers.
They have a decent writeup of their methods and workflows over here:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Grab
A meta issue that tracks questions is here:
https://github.com/GRABOSM/Grab-Data/issues/49

Not perfect, but big leaps in the right direction. I hope other mapping
efforts will build upon it.

Best Regards
Mishari
