-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have been talking to various aid organizations about how we can better coordinate our remote mappers with their field teams. One of the ideas discussed was the issue of 'fixme' tags. Currently we have a lot of things marked 'fixme' that can easily be queried with tools like overpass turbo. The idea was floated of passing information from these fixme tags on to their ground teams for confirmation on things we are not sure about that might be useful.
We currently have about 6000 fixme's in the typhoon region where we are activated. We should come up with some system of figuring out which of these would be relevant to ground teams and then work out a procedure for passing that on. My suggestion is to come up with some other extra tagging scheme to go through the fixme's and tag them with an extra tag about what needs to be done to resolve them (ground survey, look up information online, etc) so that we can query for the ones that need a ground survey and then pass on just that subset to the ground teams. If people could brainstorm about this a bit and come up with some more concrete tagging suggestions I would appreciate it. To get you started, here is an overpass query for the fixme's in the area we are working on now. You can see the bulk of them are towns with approximate locations or unsure names, but others have questions that could be answered by someone on the ground. http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1sM Please give this some thought and then share your ideas. Hopefully we can come up with something useful. - -AndrewBuck -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJSgXuHAAoJEK7RwIfxHSXb4qIP/iykpw5SlqNJZKzC2QrLepIz YoSYWfyjVOK84WnZZMjH13Fqf62Myl83TwCyTkfMf5E/aF16xoS+tNoXs9uMabry XCmiwMW8ah2qwSv6epnZXj7x1DZfXWlLNMOmC+F6hs2vQY1st4Y2f2f61W6923P/ sU6KZUPjKHLk51mak3Vq4VOGLZ3RHbm3glYSO5S4SADI3Ub0CKY+WSMbdzifKJ/k 7zOWK0wDFaW50pdY2dWvY3oqb7NUDws9B4QyV506V3EzIxbuL3QIqqBE66d9QjAJ lVu1GhOTHBpKH6v3AfY9iqkTVr1xaSxQxySeolemSkbQDGodh6fomhe2guGnTLTX eysZ3byKNR2yV+5M124l2ImCWJDKYOk3EXrBWQGV6YVRuiF3W6A2uul/sARoZSf7 eu8lADHSiyjNhwIhfsmHO2eGxj+QFMymgeyJFHdkPBeBUL4shdsgTG5vizZCCgGx 6gglzZ+IJaJYWieKZRpfYrUttgLrcG9ckCYG0oXBnwufsor7q6FoOLFQ6wlZdKN+ /ipK/waN/4i9n3d8wnGe/ehXAsySVHX4v2AUMaX37IbvYZm1jbItC+qCqWhG8xXO gn/4Ybq6AeRbpi+eiE1pekbcv3rVm1HVp7WtWP7gQyHqx0lpv1ziGtAHz0cUjGQt VhRjNuJKHYBnm5qjwbpi =SwCD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ HOT mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
