Hi Douglas,
I am very happy to see how the students have updated mapping of the Gulu
university. Local knowledge is essential and this mapping by the students is a
good example of how local and international remote mappers can work together
and produce a high qualitiy map.
It is interesting to see these photos, including the huts we were mapping.
