Hi Andrew and thank you for your interest in OSM, as well as great, open
communication.

I have only mapped in Vietnam when visiting, but I long for returning
and mapping a bit more, as well as benefiting from our collective work.

From my visit, I recall that a major challenge was the rapid development
- new highways were built all over the place, buildings torn down and
built anew... One could only rely on ortophoto layers (and older GPS
traces) after visiting the place.

If there was a way to obtain recent - and preferably updated every now
and then - ortophoto for Vietnam, it could be of a great help.

[Talk-vi] Road network improvements in Vietnam

2018-09-18 Thread Andrew Wiseman 
Hello OSM Vietnam,

My name is Andrew Wiseman, I work for Apple on the maps team. My team is 
interested in doing some work on the road network in Vietnam on OpenStreetMap, 
things like adding missing roads, making sure roads connect properly, fixing 
incorrect alignments with GPS traces, ensuring road classifications are 
consistent, and other similar issues. 

Are there places you know of that need improvement or types of problems you see 
frequently?

We have a Github page here about the project: 
https://github.com/osmlab/appledata/issues/121

Thank you,
Andrew
