Hi Piaco. Thanks for mapping. A remark.
a highway on which you see 2 tracks, which means accessible for 4wheel traffic should not be mapped as path. Depending on destignation , track, unclassified or service way. Please check the wiki for East African Highways tags .
A remark. I noticed that you are a Validater as well (starred) Why not validating here. There is a serious shortage on Validators.
Best regards

Hello. Thanks for mapping here. A request.
Please square the rectangular buildings with the S key in ID editor after each mapped building.
Check also the way how to map a circular building. Draw a triangle and use the O key in ID editor
Best regards and keep mapping.

Hi Voaaal, Thanks for mapping here. A remark. When waterways crosses a highroad a ford of bridge tag has to be placed depending whether it is a ford or a bridge. You missed a number of them. See these wiki pages
osm.wiki/Key:bridge
and this one
osm.wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa
Thanks

Hi. I reviewed your mappings. Rather good and precise. Good judgement about tagging highways. Don't forget to square rectangular buildings with the S key.
Thanks and keep mapping

Hello Adam.
Thanks for mapping here.
A request. Since this is a disaster mapping task all efforts should be used to map highways and waterways . Mapping Land use is no part of that. Please concentrate on required objects.
Another point. Highway=footway is not recommended. preferred is path in this case. more info on this webpages
osm.wiki/User:Bgirardot/West_African_HOT_Mapping_Tips
and this one
osm.wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa

Another point. Buildings should be tagged as building=yes. (nothing else)

Since these maps will be used for GPS driven navigation systems it is important that highways are connected wherever possible. When there is a (small) gap between 2 highways. a navigating system will not select the highway after a gap,
So, please connect always highways, especially in hamlets where highways comes from different directions
Best regards and keep mapping

Hello Silvia. Thanks for mapping on this project. A request. Please review the highway wiki before tagging highways. A tag highway=unclassified is not suited for a path of 1,5 mtrs wide. Path or track should be more appropriate.

Hi, back again. Another point. For satellite navigation purposes it is important that highways are connected to each other where possible. In hamlets or villages f.i. where highways comes from different directions , please connect their end nodes to each other.
Thanks

Hello Bertrand. Thanks for mapping here.
A request. Since this is a disaster mapping project to map buildings, try to restrict yourself to map buildings. Other objects are not advised. another point. Here you mapped 4 round huts as a building=yes. A building should show some shadow. These
are just prints on the ground.
Best regards

Hi, Thank you for mapping. A remark. You map a ford as a piece of road.
You should map a ford as 1 node where you connect the node of the waterway and the highway. On that node you can put the tag ford=yes

Hi Sushi, Thanks for mapping here. A request. Please map highways a little over the edge of your task so that other mappers can continue that roads.

Hi, Thank you for mapping. A request. Please square all your rectangular buildings with the S key after mapping each one. Tag the buildings only as building=yes.

You overlooked a number over buildings. ( mapped them)
Best regards and keep mapping

Hi, Thanks for mapping. a question. Why put you on the end of a path a tag crossing/marked.This makes no sense . I deleted them .
Please tag footway as highway=path. See wiki HOTOSM african highways
Do not connect nodes of highways on nodes of buildings and residential areas.
Do connect nodes of highways which comes together in a hamlet to eachother

Hello. Thanks for mapping. A request.
I reviewed some mappings from you, especially residential areas and noticed that you often map residential areas to the nodes of buildings and highways, which results in errors. Pleas map these areas so wide that they do not connect nodes of other projects.
Highways, coming from different directions entering a hamlet should be connected to each other. Please take that into account next time
Best regards
