Hi,

I'll take care to add it to the OSM Haiti wiki. Lets define there how to do a first import (probably automatic, there aren't a lot of already mapped radio stations, I guess, but we should check first) and how to update the data from Sandras master list later.

Regards
Karl

We've gotten confirmation from Sandra that we can import radio and tv station locations into OSM. Need to coordinate with Sandra to import the data, and keep it up to date and their db is updated.
Can anyone stand up for this?

Thanks
Mikel

Guys,

IMS told me to go ahead and share the data, let me know what the best
way is, especially as it is still in the process of being updated.
We host it in Google Spreadsheet.

Cheers
Sandra

Sorry guys,

I have not forgotten about your request to integrate the data to OSM. I
have re-send the request to autorise to Internews but have not received
a response so far. However, as I have been informed by IMS, the
organisation we compile the data for who are on the ground by now, there
will be a meeting with the mappers + internews on the ground; therefore
I hope I have a response soon.

The good side of this, I have sent all questionable positions (many, as
the Geocoding in the country side is not as advanced as in PaP) to IMS
in the field and hope that while waiting for internews response we can
clean up/adjust our positional errors.

Thank you for your patience.

Regards
Sandra

Towers are also present in many of the unclassified DMA maps too.
