Hello list, I'm contacting you to get feedback on an import prepared by HOT as part of a project combining data extracted in an automated way and information collected on the ground[1].
This import consists of around 3.8 millions building footprints in north-eastern DRC and 2.7 millions building footprints in western Uganda. The data was extracted from high-resolution imagery provided by Maxar over the period from 2015 to 2019. You can check the proposed import wiki here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Eastern_DRC_%26_Western_Uganda_Maxar-Ecopia_Buildings_Import A subpage containing the practical details of the proposed methodology to perform this import has also been developed [2]. Both pages are available in English and French to ease exchanges with contributors in both countries. Online discussions have been taking place since the end of June with both communities through calls, WhatsApp and mailing lists. We are welcoming any comments, questions, or issues you would have regarding this import process. Cheers Claire [1] https://www.hotosm.org/projects/leveraging-ml-generated-building -data-and-motorcycle-mapping-in-the-drc-and-uganda -to-enhance-humanitarian-response/ [2] https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Eastern_DRC_%26_Western_Uganda_Maxar-Ecopia_Buildings_Import/Workflow
