Thanks Jorieke and Pete for all your hard work in today's training session. Happy to be part of this Missing Map and HOT initiative. The volunteers from OSM Bangladesh Community who got training today are also motivated. Some more volunteers are also willing to join with us, I will bring them in monday.
I would like to thank to them who are volunteering remotely in this project in Bangladesh. I believe that jointly with the global communities our Bangladesh community will map the whole country in near future. You can see some photos of today's training I have uploaded in OpenStreetMaps Bangladesh fb group: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.824086224316790&type=1 Ahasan .....................................................................................
