Hi everyone,

I added four more countries thanks to some community requests:

Cameroon:https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13673
Chad:https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13674
Burundi & Rwanda:https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13675

The full list is here: https://maproulette.org/browse/projects/39262


Salut à tous,

Voici Andrew de l'équipe Apple. J'ai récemment publié de nombreux nouveaux 
défis MapRoulette pour cartographier les villes non cartographiées dans divers 
pays du continent.

Il a été créé à partir des données du site Unmapped Places de Pascal Neis 
(https://resultmaps.neis-one.org/unmapped) qui montre les villes, les villages 
et les hameaux qui n'ont pas de routes résidentielles ou non classifiées à 
proximité. Voici ce que j'ai créé jusqu'à présent, faites-moi savoir s'il y a 
d'autres pays qui pourraient vous intéresser et je peux les publier.

Cameroun:   https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13673
Tchad:  https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13674
Burundi & Rwanda:   https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13675
RD Congo:   https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13529
Éthiopie:   
https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13526
Ghana:  https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13527
Nigéria:
https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13528
Afrique du Sud: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/12452
Tanzanie:   https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/12458
Ouganda:https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13611
Afrique de l'Ouest: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13524

Il y a une liste complète de tous les défis des lieux non cartographiés que 
j'ai publiés ici: https://maproulette.org/browse/projects/39262

Dans MapRoulette, vous pouvez choisir une tâche aléatoire à corriger ou cliquer 
sur une tâche spécifique. Si vous souhaitez effectuer des tâches autour d'un 
certain emplacement, par exemple dans un endroit que vous connaissez, vous 
pouvez cliquer sur l'une d'elles dans la vue Carte, puis cliquer sur "Tâche 
suivante: à proximité" lorsque vous l'avez terminée.

De plus, nous avons récemment créé un style de peinture JOSM qui vise à 
faciliter le mappage et à trouver rapidement les erreurs. Il a beaucoup de 
contrôles intégrés pour la géométrie et les problèmes d'étiquetage des routes 
et d'autres fonctionnalités. Il s'agit d'une version mise à jour du style de 
peinture que nous avons partagé à State of the Map Africa en 2017. Voici où 
vous pouvez le télécharger et les instructions: 
https://github.com/osmlab/applepaintstyles

J'espère que c'est utile! Faites-moi savoir si vous avez des commentaires.

Merci,
Andrew

[Talk-africa] MapRoulette challenges to map unmapped towns, and new paint style for JOSM

[Andrew Wiseman via Talk-africa]

Hi everyone,

This is Andrew from the Apple team. I recently posted a lot of new MapRoulette 
challenges for mapping unmapped towns in various countries throughout the 
continent. 

It was created using data from Pascal Neis’s Unmapped Places site 
(https://resultmaps.neis-one.org/unmapped) which shows towns, villages and 
hamlets that don’t have residential or unclassified roads nearby. Here is what 
I’ve created so far, let me know if there are any other countries you’d be 
interested in and I can post them.

DR Congo:   https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13529
Ethiopia:   https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13526
Ghana:  https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13527
Nigeria:https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13528
South Africa:   https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/12452
Tanzania:   https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/12458
Uganda: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13611
West Africa:https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/13524

There’s a full list of all the unmapped places challenges I've posted here: 
https://maproulette.org/browse/projects/39262

In MapRoulette you can either pick a random task to fix or click on a specific 
one. If you want to do tasks around a certain location, such as somewhere you 
are familiar with, you can click on one from the map view, and then click "Next 
task: Nearby" when you finish it.

In addition, we recently created a JOSM paint style that is aimed at making 
mapping easier and finding errors quickly. It has lots of built in checks for 
geometry and tagging problems for roads and other features. It’s an updated 
version of the paint style we shared at State of the Map Africa in 2017. Here 
is where you can download it and instructions: 
https://github.com/osmlab/applepaintstyles 


I hope this is useful! Let me know if you have any feedback. 

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi everyone,

I created a new one related to protected areas — such as national parks, 
protected forests, marine protected areas and so on. Take a look

Hi all,

We recently refreshed the MapRoulette challenges with new data, and added a few 
more countries around the continent. Here are new links to them. Let me know if 
you have any questions!

[Talk-africa] Fix road problems around Africa with MapRoulette: Angola, Egypt, Kenya, Rwanda, South Africa, Tunisia & Uganda

[Andrew Wiseman via Talk-africa]

Hello OSM Africa,

This is Andrew again with Apple’s Maps team. We recently used our Atlas data 
analysis tool (https://github.com/osmlab/atlas 
) to look at a few types of potential issues 
related to roads and routing, such as overly sharp road angles, roads that 
cross but don't connect, routing problems, turn restrictions, places where 
navigation is impossible due to missing connections or potentially incorrect 
one-way roads, and other similar issues.

I've posted the results of those checks on MapRoulette, a tool that lets you go 
through potential issues one by one and either correct them or indicate they 
are not a problem. I wanted to let you know they are available in case others 
wanted to try fixing some of them — I also plan to go through some of them 
myself.

In MapRoulette you can either pick a random task to fix or click on a specific 
one. If you want to do tasks around a certain location, such as somewhere you 
are familiar with, you can click on one from the map view, and then click Next 
task: Nearby when you finish it.

We ran the tool for a few countries recently: 

South Africa:

Crossing roads: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/8863
Routing problems: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/8855
Floating and disconnected roads: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/8852
