This week I mainly focus on what I did last week.The difference is that last week was about relearning the basics of the technicality on what we were about to do for the whole month. At this time using JOSM was quite familiar to me now. I now learned how to map imagery that will not just focus on the roads and buildings but the whole image as a whole also considering the details, accuracy and artistic side of mapping. Fixing some errors was easy now since I already know how to fix the problems and been tackling different errors most of the time. Some errors are difficult since I am thought yet and I am not in that level of solving such as boundary errors.

I was also though on how to design a interactive 3D map. Designing was fun and I was inclined to it. I am still learning and exploring on how to specially the codes of a map. We are still continuing an activity on road connection, still improving how to map an image at a professional level and validating my co-interns to learn what common or new mistakes had happen. I also notice not all mappers have the same logic and ability as one is, so one has a different technique on doing a task and has a specific skill set or strength in mapping, Our director even introduce us on the shallow part of the geo-mapping field and how it is part of IT field.

For me mapping is another opportunity in what I may take in the future as a professional. Since the mapping industry in the Philippines is somehow they say ‘low’ . I would consider it then as a in demand job in the country. Being a mapper and an IT student has its mutual relation to each other which will somehow beneficial to me in being a professional soon.
