Congratulations Samaila, this sounds like a great training.
For those interested in mapping Niger, CartONG is currently supporting
OSM-Ne in mapping the city of Diffa and N'guigmi. The data will be used
by the International Committee of the Red Cross for water & sanitation
projects.
You can support us on 3 projects :
* https://tasks.hotosm.org/project/3777 to map the new neighborhoods
of Diffa with a recent imagery => this project is OK for beginners
* https://tasks.hotosm.org/project/3802 to update the city of N'guigmi
thanks to a recent imagery given by ICRC => for intermediate
mappers, it is both updating existing mapping & adding the many new
buildings appeared since the last mapping campaign. Be careful with
the offset ;-)
* https://tasks.hotosm.org/project/3397#bottom complete validation of
the city of Diffa with a new imagery, still ongoing => for more
advanced mappers since it requires a lot of precise updating of
existing data.
You're welcome to work on one of these projects during a mapathon, ping
us if you want us to introduce the project. Thanks a lot for your
contribution!
Best regards.
Martin

Hi all,
OSM Niger is moving to Dosso, Niger to conduct a training and awareness
camp on digital cartography (OSM), free geomatics and open data (opendata)
from 10 to 12 November 2017 in the Regional Direction of the environment.
The beneficiaries of this training are the agents of the environment
department, the students from the University of dosso.
The program of this camp is defined on a day of creation of geographic data
data via JOSM, ID editor, field data collection via GPS terminals,
smartphones (OsmAnd, OSMtracker) and field papers.
The 2nd day will be devoted to the export of data and their reuse via QGIS,
uMap, MapContrib
The third and final day will be dedicated to the creation of mass data
through a Mapathon on the Diffa Region for contribution to OSMGéoWeek.
Best regards,
--
