Re: [HOT] The London HOT Congo Mapathon: hashtag for the mapping in Democratic Republic

2014-04-30 Thread Kate Chapman
Hi Nicolas,

I hope you can appreciate that Twitter doesn't really work that way. When
hosting an event then hosts often decide on the hashtag ahead of time, but
often these things just happen organically. Typically you can guess a
hashtag for an event or series of hashtags. For example when a disaster
happens #pray4 almost always appears, there are also sometimes other
tags which are abbreviations of the place name or have special significance
to people. In Jakarta during flooding #banjirjakarta is pretty common for
example, which just means "Jakarta Flood" in Indonesian.

I would suggest we just continue using #mapcongo and not overthink things
too much. This has already been in use and people are probably already
monitoring this tag. Local groups certainly will gather around other
hashtags that are relevant to them overtime.

For those interested Katrina Engelsted and I wrote a social media guide a
ways back and certainly would appreciate comments if there is missing
information or updates(1). National Public Radio (NPR) in the US has a
great Tumblr about social media which highlights methods different programs
use to approach this type of engagement and the strategy behind it(2).

Best,

-Kate

[HOT] The London HOT Congo Mapathon: hashtag for the mapping in Democratic Republic

2014-04-30 Thread nicolas chavent
Hi all,

*Version en français dans le corps du texte ci après*


I had a quick chat with Shoaib who created #mapcongo for the first mapping
party in Berlin. It's efficient, straight, easy to get and has been in use
and surely great for any re-use.

One thing to consider if we were to continue using it is the fact that we
have two Congo, with two local OSM groups
cd Congo, The Democratic Republic of the
cg Congo

A way forward may be to suffix the two letters iso country code to
#mapcongo (#mapcongocd and #mapcongocg)

We do not have, nor the coordination bodies active in the UN, DHN etc, a
formal mechanism to decide on which # to reuse (when already in place) or
to create at the event of a crisis or for a mapping projects (support to
disaster preparedness or economic development action). But this is
something we need to put in place.

In the case of a project like this mapping in DRC, the choice of a hashtag
(#mapcongo or others) can endure and it's somehow part of the osm/identity
of the project.

It might be great to get the views of a couple of folks mapping in Congo
and Cong DR on what seems most appropriate for them in the long run, so
that we can have easily serachable twitter contents associated to those
mapping campaigns


Version en français

J'ai eu un bref chat avec Shoaib qui a crée le #mapcongo pour la premiere
mapping party de Berlin où la cartographie de Lubumbashi a commencé.

#mapcongo : efficace, direct et parlant, a été utilisé et présente donc un
avantage certain pour des usages ultérieurs.

Toutefois dnas cette réutilisation à venir, il nous faut faire cas des deux
Congos où des groupes OSM se constituent :
cd Congo, The Democratic Republic of the
cg Congo

Une solution pourrait être de suffixer le code de pays ISO au #mapcongo :
- #mapcongocd
- #mapcongocg

Nous n'avons pas (HOT), ainsi que les structures de coordinaiton (UN, DHN)
de processus en place pour decider des # à ré-utiliser (quand déjà crée et
en place)ou à créer pour le cas de crise ou de projet carto (prévention ou
appui au développement). C'est à discuter et mettre en oeuvre de facon
souple et pratique.

Dans le cas d'un projet comme celui ci (RDC), le choix de ce hashtag
(#mapcongo ou autre) peut avoir un impact dans le temps et a donc a voir
(plus ou moins) avec une forme d'identité OSM du pays.

Il serait bon d'avoir l'avis, les vues de certains et certaines qui sont
actifs/ actives autour d'OSM au Congo et au Congo DR sur ce qui leur semple
le plus pertinent pour eux dans le long terme de façon à pouvoir disposer
de contenus crées sur twitter en lien avec cette cartographie OSM
facilement mobilisables.

Hi all,

About the Tasking Managers and imagery. We are still discussing this more
in detail, but thanks a lot for your input!
The main focus will normally lie on the digitalization of the FieldPapers
with local data of Lubumbashi.

For the twitter hastag good idea Nicolas! I'm far from an experienced

 Further I also remind me that there was used a hashtag for the mapathon in
Berlin, not? Maybe we can use the same one?

Version française ci-dessous.

Thanks Harry and Ivan for setting this up as well as Jorieke and Shoaib for
joining, I am translating in French so that French speaking communities who
answered Lubumbashi calling for mapping can continue on site and remotely
their support to this baseline mapping for preparedness campaign as well as
the efforts of some of the Lubumbashi mappers.

Merci Harry et Ivan pour avoir organisé ce Mapathon, merci aussi à Jorieke
et Shohaib pour leur participation. Je traduis pour les communautés
francophones qui ont répondu à l'appel de Lubumbashi pour ce soutien
cartographique de façon à qu'elles puissent poursuivre leurs efforts sur
place ou à distance au sein de cette campagne de cartographie de base
inscrite en  préparation de crise ainsi que les projets de cartographie
terrain de certains des mappers de Lubumbashi

Nico


Le dernier événement HOT organisé à Londres datant, Harry a travaillé avec
Ivan de MSF UK à l'organisation du Mapathon de HOT sur la Republique
Démocratique du Congo (DRC).

Page du wiki (à traduire en français si quelqu'un a le temps) :
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2014_London_HOT_Congo_Mapathon

Date:  Samedi 3 Mai
Horaire:  10:30 à 18:00
Lieu:  The Open Data Institute, London, UK.
   3rd Floor. 65 Clifton Street. EC2A 4JE (carte)
Inscription (pour présence sur place) :
http://london-hot-congo.eventbrite.co.uk/

Il est possible d'en faire un événement important et pour cela il convient
d'attirer des individus de la scène humanitaire aussi bien que des mappers
expérimentés du projet OSM qui pourront jouer entre autre le rôle de
formateurs. Idéalement, il faudrait des personnes avec cette double
expérience (hotties, avez-vous dit hotties ?), d'avance merci pour
transmettre à toute personne susceptible d'être intéressée par l'événement.

S'il vous est possible de vous rendre sur place, n'hésitez pas à faire acte
de présence! Harry est heureux d'avoir pu compter sur Jorieke Vyncke et
Shohaib Burq qui feront le déplacement et seront de l'événement. Le
travail  de cartographie à venir sera lié au travail de MSF UK au Congo
avec notamment du travail de numérisation des données contenus sur les
Field Papers que Jorieke, MSF UK et les mappers de Lubumbashi ont collecté
lors de leur travaux de terrain de la mi Mars passée [1].

[HOT] The London HOT Congo Mapathon

2014-04-25 Thread Harry Wood
It's high time we had a London H.O.T. event, so I've worked with Ivan from MSF, 
on planning the "London HOT Congo Mapathon":

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2014_London_HOT_Congo_Mapathon

Date:      Saturday 3rd May
Time:      10:30 until 18:00
Location:  The Open Data Institute, London, UK.
           3rd Floor. 65 Clifton Street. EC2A 4JE (map)
Sign up:   http://london-hot-congo.eventbrite.co.uk/

Hopefully it will be a pretty big event. I want to attract people from the 
humanitarian scene as well as experienced OpenStreetMappers to act as teachers. 
Best of all would be people who are both (that's you Hotties!)  Please pass on 
the details to anyone who might be interested in attending.

It should be worth travelling for, if you can get to London. I'm very excited 
to say we've got Jorieke Vyncke and Shoaib Burq travelling here for the event. 
The mapping will relate to MSF's work in the Congo, and in particular there's a 
plan to get people digitising Field Papers data which Jorieke was involved in 
collecting recently.
