Hi Bjoern,

The residential areas were extracted from the OSM database using overpass
download. A 25 meters buffer was applied to the polygons before importing
them into the tasking manager. In the present case, it was done as a zipped
shapefile (although I usually rather use geojson).
In the tasking manager, there are currently 2 options when creating a new
project: either use the imported geometries as tasks (like in this case) or
use a square grid on the geometry provided (regular projects).

There are currently some other projects using imported geometry as tasks,
e.g. road network in Kasaï, DRC (#2881).

Claire
