[Talk-us] Tampa/Clearwater Building Import to aid in Irma Recovery Efforts

The Tampa/Clearwater building import [1] wiki page is available. Basically this import is to add building outlines provided by Microsoft [2] to aid in Irma Recovery efforts. It will use the Tasking Manager for the import process. The import, like the Corpus Christi import, requires JOSM. For

[Talk-us] Emergency Shelters

Are the emergency shelters currently mapped in OSM? I think that it would be really useful, in an emergency to have these locations available on your phone or watch as offline routable maps (including whether they are pet friendly). Maybe in the next few months we could convince/help all states

[Talk-us] Hurricane Irma - Puerto Rico
