#covid19ph — Public Fediverse posts

Last month, contributors to #OpenStreetMap in the Philippines made 14,130 map changes, a 21% drop from February surge due to #Taal2020Eruption activities.

Despite that, number is above the PHL average for 2019.

The drop in contributors (still surprisingly high) and the map changes is attributable to the #covid19PH response in the country.

Tonight, 1 Apr, Wed, 19:30 (UTC +8) the local OSM community is hosting #MapaTime as #weMap for #MAPampanga. Full details here: is.gd/dox14p

Last night, the #OSMph community hosted the pilot #WeMap session, mapping for healthcare with #MapaGaling - a featured initiative of #MinistryOfMapping

We had ~77 volunteers who helped validate/fix/update healthcare POIs in various parts of the #Philippines on #OpenStreetMap last night, but most edits happened in or around the NCR.

Thank you for participating, as contributors, promoters, organizers, and as mappers, to create better #OpenData, as we face the challenges of #CoViD19PH

No thanks to #COVID19PH, many are keen to know where nearby healthcare facilities are

We're doing #MapaGaling on 25th Mar, 7:30PM to map healthcare facilities in the #Philippines on #OpenStreetMap

YOU can help ensure that the details are correctly mapped - and fix them if they aren't.

#WeMap because we care about our communities, and we choose to act positively in these trying times.

Save Wednesdays nights for #Mapatime online, and together #wemap
