Hi Eugene, Happy to join if you meet in Manilla regarding this. I'm in town until November 12. Will be very useful to complete Bohol's OSM, as currently I'm advising a watershed commission in the Eastern part of Bohol. Because of this I started mapping this part of the island in August. Together with project NOAH I also did several OSM hands-on workshops with LGU's, youth volunteers and Bohol Island State University. I hope this will lead to some mapping activities through local people in the next months. Since August more detailed satellite images have become available for this specific area. On-screen mapping is possible for almost the whole watershed (Carood river).
