Re: [HOT] Inflationary use of the mailinglist

[Julian Haag]

Thanks for your reply, and thanks to Blake too!

maybe I am just not able to use a mailinglist correctly. No doubt 
mapswipe is an interesting tool and is related to HOT. But in my opinion 
only urgend topics should go into a mailinglist.


Don't get me wrong: During the Nepal quake there were 20-30 mails a day 
for more than a week. I'm absolutely fine with that. That was mostly 
important, interesting and urgend stuff.


Ignoring is a good thing until your phone or mailapplication on the 
computer keeps telling you about new emails. Constantly.


@Blake: Maybe I will join the announcement list and just subscribe to 
this list when getting involved in desastermapping..



Thanks!

Julian

I think that's an interesting discussion thread. Not sure about the 
others, but the way to read mailing lists is to look at the topics 
that interest you and ignore the rest.

Hello everyone,

I am interested in information regarding HOT activations, the talk
about real HOT problems and some news regarding HOT, so I joined
this list about a year ago during the earthquake in Nepal.
Currently I found myself deleting nearly 98% of the messages of
this list even without reading it.

It's just crazy getting dozends of emails a day on topics having
nearly no intersection with HOT at all! e.g. "Bounding box not in
iD Editor anymore" or currently "Mapswipe - whats happening with
the data?". There are boards, where, in my optinion, general
discussions should take place but not on a mailinglist. A
mailinglist, thats the place where really urgend stuff should be
discussed.

Is there a HOT mailinglist that just focuses on important stuff?

with that..
I added lots of highways and other things north of Baglung.

These roads got rendered and are showing on the map right now. But I
am missing many of these ways and the river is also gone!
I couldn't figure out if I am the cause of this as my changesets in

The data cannot be downloaded at the moment so I think lots of Nodes

Hello Nirab and the rest of KLL, Namaste!

I looked into #1071 and began mapping near Baglung. There are
tousands of buildings, lots of residential areas. I tried to find
out, where the landslide was to start work from this point, but I
failed. Can you point out, where this landslide was?

Everybody who have some problems with newbies: This is your chance,
there is little or nothing to correct there... Its nearly a white
spot in OSM. In the last two hours I added thousands of nodes and I
still need a couple of hours to complete this Task. I will split it
up as soon as all highways are mapped..

Greetings to KLL, keep up the good work!

Hi,
I just want to mention, that I think, this is an important one! How can
you encourage people to go on contributing when you invalidate because
of a few minor mistakes or things that might have been mapped a bit
better? No, you have to say thanks, provide some nice sentence and point
out what you have IMPROVED (not corrected ;)). Altough there is a lack
of checking everythin in this task twice, I believe it is still that
what is intended: just to have two mappers that state a task done

Hi,
leaving a clear comment on a task helps a lot. For beginners as well
as for more experienced mappers looking for completing tasks.
I always try so be as precise as possible in a comment. E.g. partly
covered by clouds, used mapbox, bing and digitalGlobe imagery, etc..
You can specify what you did and where you had trouble. As long as
you don't mark a task as complete, you can do what you want.
Commenting helps a lot though :)

Thanks for contributing altough its getting harder. I would prefere
clean tiles where I can map everything from scratch, but it is more
and more cleaning up instead of adding new things..

Hi,
as I had a quick look at this task, I feel he is not wrong. There are
lots and lots of paths without any connection. I understand that you
didn't see traces on the Bing imagery, but this is not what we need.
First, try to only map paths wich have a use to the map. E.g. paths to
buildings or residential areas. Path into the woods and stopping there
are not interesting and fill up the map with information wich are not
useable AT THIS TIME but make it more harder to read the maps.

So, I would first delete some paths that do not have a benefit and I
feel developing it would be a waste of time. Second try to interconnect
all your paths if somehow possible

Hi,
having very limited time at the moment, I wasn't able to map the
last days.
I have been active in Nepal since the end of 2014 and I had the time
to learn reading the Imagery regarding roads. Sometimes you have to
map from both sides until it becomes clear, how this track is going.

But I have a quite different perspective than some experienced
mappers. Its not a problem, if 2,3 or 10 buildings are marked as
landuse=residential. Its not important if buildings are squared or
not. Its not important, if these buildings are off by 50m or even a
bit more. Its absolutely not important, if 3 single buildings are
drawn as one big. And its not important, if this is a track, a road,
unclassified or residental street.
No, I'm not a retard and not a troll. But I feel some slightly lost
the focus on our goal!

Our goal is to help rescue and relief organisations! Search and
Rescue from debris is important a few days from the incident. NOW
our goal is to provide a map for logistics only! People struggle for
food and clean water as well as shelter.
So it is important, that these organisations know that there is a
building, there are spontaneous camps, there are major damages in
this village. Is absolutely doesn't matter if the shapes are
correct.

So, please, let us finish with our work before cleaning up. The
cleanup from this desaster need several years - both, in nepal as
well as in OSM.

Yes, I complained a lot about new contributors also, but despite of
invalidating tiles that are not perfect, I corrected important
things and validated them tough - not a perfect workflow, but it's
an encouraging one!

So, stay healthy!

Julian

Re: [HOT] #1024 landuse=brownfield + landuse=residential

Hi,
I think it might do some massive damage when you change
landuse=residential to brownfield. First, it is crucial to know
where a residential are WAS. Also a brownfield in most cases doesn't
equals to a residential area! There are damaged buildings but no
tents showing nearby. We have to keep the residential area info for
the tasks rescue teams will need now and in several WEEKS! when
damaged buildings are not the greatest Problem anymore...
For now, everybody who needs a brownfield can highlight it. Anybody
needing residential areas can also use our data.

greetings from germany
Julian

Re: [HOT] limit validation to experienced users

Hi,
I had an argument with him too via PM and I kinda ticked a bit.. Felt a
bit strange getting a lesson from someone mapping for 3 months and
adding all in all 9000 nodes and having added about 100.000 in Nepal
this year myself. Invalidating tasks completed by maning added some
flavour to that one too.. :D
He wants all buildings to be mapped. Even those in landuse=residential.

It feels like a waste of time, but the instructions are a bit ambiguous
so technically he is not wrong!
I can understand, that completing and validating a task should be the
point in wich everything needed is mapped - #1018 is marked as STEP 2.
So we are adding more details.. I am not sure what to do, but I pointed
out to him, that his attitude might discourage some mappers (as it did
to me at first (only a bit :D)).

greetings from germany
ngt

P.S. at the moment I try to watch the activities and (re-)validate
especially the ones done by beginners. In the comments there has to be a
kind and more exhausting text on what to do, point out learnosm and be
particular, what should be done different or be better. Try to avoid
saying what is bad ;)
