Thanks @travel193!

Thank you, Nuno. Your photo-mapping captures are great!

Bayanihan Mapping Workshop in Batangas City

Thank you, Chetan.

We’re looking forward to new photo sequences by bike from Feye Andal. :P

A sensitive mapping of public space, #CallesVioletas (VioletStreets)

Good job! Congratulations for an impressive mapping exercise, with an alternative mapping framework.

That’s true, and I agree. But, I have another thing to consider: time constraints for the activity.

I think double-sided tapes could be easier with this.

I’ll share how it turns out, if I get to run this with the kids.

By the way, the ITO image links you posted are not visible to non-ITO users, or ITO users who are not logged in. I suggest you convert them to regular images so more people can see them.

Good job! Thanks for helping out, and making OSM more awesome!

Yule Holiday activities

You got very great caps on Mapillary, too, I see.

By the way, your link to your Mapillary profile is incorrect. They’re case sensitive.

I suspect the dog is having as much fun as you. New places to sniff at! :)

Mapillary coverage on OsmAnd

Cool map, @joost! Thanks for sharing.

Very nice! I’ll remember to use these in our next mapping session for kids.

Building local mapping communities

One of the session tracks during the Second State of the Map Asia conference, the “Local Chapters congress” workshop ran by Maning Sambale @maning. I’m confident he’ll publish a synthesis of what the participants shared during the activity very soon.

We have a few photos of that session here while the full conference album is (here](https://goo.gl/photos/NBPe14jZnQDhbHed7)

WHAT IF?

WHAT IF?

The tools I mentioned for monitoring changsets are non-exhaustive. There are many, other tools out there which you can integrate into your own workflow.

WHAT IF?

Welcome to OpenStreetMap.

First of all OpenStreetMap is a collaborative mapping platform, data is, and will always be available for editing and modification by anyone with an OSM account, whatever their intentions maybe.

The advantages of keeping the data sets Free and Open currently outweighs the risk of modifications made erroneously and or with the intent to vandalize. Most of the edits are made to fix an error, update the data, or create new ones.

With regards to any assurance about validity and authenticity, only a local community can do that. Data in OpenStreetMap come mainly from tracing satellite imagery (which is quite good for buildings, highways, waterways, and settlements.) adding details require personal or local knowledge, and the best source for that is the local community.

Your office, the local DRRMO, is in a good position to help validate data and actually promote mapping in your own community.

You can monitor changes in your particular geographic area of interest using several tools:

The OSMPH community is on Slack, in case you want to chat or ask further questions from the rest of the active community: https://is.gd/osmphchat

@aHaSaN Thank you for the write-up.

@PlaneMad The SotM Asia presenters’ slide decks are available from the SotM Asia GitHub repo

Cemeteries in Texas MapRoulette Challenge now powered by Texas Imagery Service

@kresp0, as long as they’re outside a church yard, their cemeteries. Otherwise, they’re graveyards.
