## 公告

- 本次 Crisis mapping 的主題是 [颶風 Patricia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Patricia) ，她是西半球有史以來最強熱帶氣旋。這個颶風已經在 10月24日消滅了，但她在墨西哥造成的[災情](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Patricia#Mexico)包含：6人喪生、235,528 人受到停電之苦、200 所學校、107 醫療機構、34 運動機構以及28,780 英畝農田受到破壞。
- 本次 mapping 的區域是墨西哥西岸，那一帶的基礎圖資 (河流、路網...) 都還不完整。為了協助救災，道路是最重要的資訊，於是這個 task 就被發起了。

## 討論(discussion)

\> Q Yang Shih Cheng: hi I am first time mapper, I have a question, if I don't know the **name or characteristic of the area**, can I just circle it without putting any name?
\> A Slayer: Alan, I will just use "building" as property. The **local volunteer** should do a further verification since we know nothing about that building
\> Q mcdlee: How to know what level of the highway is?
\> A yellowsoar: if the color of road is gray, it prob. be highway=unclassified
\> Q Yang Shih Cheng:  From the map, the boundary area/size of the building  is not clear, the buildings are just connecting to each other. Can I  just mark a block of building area and then name them all together as a  building? or shall I defray them as little block of building?
\> A yellowsoar: defrag them
\> Q mcdlee: is this a highway?
\> Supaplex: tag as highway =track?
\> mcdlee: I think it might be 產業道路 (track) but not sure...
\> Q Yang Shih Cheng: One question for map verification part, will I get notice if the  map being verified with error? and who is going to verify my updating  map? the admin or the prof mappers?
\> A Supaplex: Another experience mappers will do the verify process
\> Q Yang Shih Cheng: is there any rule to verify the updated maps?
or is there any discussion about such kind of verification progress in OSm community?
\> A Supaplex: Due to there's many new mappers in the Nepal Earthquake crisis mapping, there are many errors. The simplest one is no tagging or just tag area=yes but it should be landuse=residential
\> Yang Shih Cheng: what happen if no tagging? I mean, if I don't know what I shall tag with
\> Yellowsoar:> keep it
\> Yang Shih Cheng: will the mapper get notify to tag again or the experienced will tag for it?
\> Supaplex: In the current iD editor, it is not allowed with no tagging
\> Yellowsoar:  fixme = yes
\> Supaplex: You have to at least choose one highway=xxx for road and landuse=residential in most of the case
\> Yang Shih Cheng: cool, I'm using ID editor, and it actually mention/remind me about no tagging part of the map
\> Supaplex: and building=yes if you're not sure how to tag buildings, it's the most safe option.
\> Q mcdlee: How should we determine the direction of stream?

**Some Screen Shots about this Mapping Event**

**Next Mapping (Maybe)**
So next round will be the response to earth quake among Pakistan, India, and Afghanistan.

**Outlook**
we would love to encourage the mapping for local disaster risk map (社區防災地圖), Maybe we can start collecting the training materials that allows the junior/senior high school students to be the community volunteers (or maybe for the geography class)
