Sent Katja photos I'd collected of villages and buildings. 

• Note how many buildings are oval or round or a combination of oval and 
square! 
• Many buildings are hard to see because they have dark roofs and are less 
square.  
• Also some villages are spread out and some are tight together. 
• Paths "disappear" as people walk forward on the top of the ledge between 
terraces or over flat ground. So it's not possible to connect these to large 
road systems, yet they are valuable. 

It would be great to have a photo matched with the appropriate tag. It's hard 
to know if a "road" is a Track, a Path, or a Secondary Road, etc. There are 
some examples in the wiki, yet some more are needed for us newbies. 

I would be happy to put the appropriate tag on photos in Photoshop if someone 
with more experience could dive into the Dropbox and send the photo and correct 
tag to me.

Hi,

Following on from what Katja has said, is there a resource that you'd recommend 
for showing photos of features --- and the corresponding satellite image for 
the same feature? Like a ground truth of what we are interpreting.

It might help with those path/dry steam momemts of doubt.

Many thanks, 
Tom

Thanks Katja

From these pictures, we see that the small round objects in the middle of the 
fields can correspond to hay bales. Also ther could be sometimes structures 
with only a roof in the middle of the farmland.
 
I added the link to your dropbox on the wiki page.

Objet : [HOT] Photo examples Nepal update

Hi all,

as some people asked me to add photos of Nepal to my collection, I 
decided to create a dropbox folder. This way everybody can upload 
relevant and helpful pictures on their own, and there won´t be any 
copyright issues because it´s not public.

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rnjuwd06zfhty7p/AAAVzgp5abFr55-g2luPazt-a?dl=0

If want to add pictures, please send me your mailaddress so I can invite 
you to collaborate [email protected]
