My graduation project is to implement the GeoCameroun. It is a mapping portal Cameroon, accessible to all based on OSM.
More than just a portal, the project aims to use OSM as urban management tools. what is already done: - From 2010 to 2012, I did some field missions (mainly in Yaoundé) - July-August 2012 with a group of 4 students we educate local students on the osm project - This year from March 11 to April 8, with the support of EUROSHA Cameroon, Cameroon OSM community has been launched. - We conducted a conference and some training in JOSM - I furrowed some streets of the capital and other cities in Cameroon (Limbe, Bertoua, Buea) with video system board (GPS + Camera). This permit direct measurement of the coordinates (x, y, z) on images with a centimeter accuracy. - We have received permission to import some public data in OSM (forest roads, student projects) (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/GeoCameroun) - The scripts to generate OSM files (Ogr2Osm, OSGeo4W ...) - A dedicated account for imports ( http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/GeoCameroun) What remains to be done: - Finish the project documentation on the wiki OSM (I will finish it as soon as possible, I just have other more pressing issues for the moment) - finish the discussion with the local community on the national data to import. - my internship report will naturally be public.
