govvin commented 5 years ago

The user Marianne has been in touch over the weekend, and has explained that the mapping effort is being conducted by the barangay (village) registry department, to record information related to their issuance of "certificate of lot occupancy", and also to create public DRR maps, to inform the community about their local hazards and vulnerability.

They agreed to hold an online meeting to discuss the privacy-related issues they've had earlier, and is willing to work with the OSM community to ensure that they can comply with community guidelines.

govvin commented 5 years ago

Official contact has been made with the person responsible for initiating the mapping effort, Ms. Marianne Mores of Barangay Santa Ana, Taytay, Rizal. We were also able to get in touch with their Barangay Registry Division chief, Katherine Belano.

They agreed to have an online meeting on 27th March to discuss the issues identified by the community, and suggestions were offered to enable them to pursue the project without violating community guidelines on data privacy rights of the individuals, and other suggestions to improve the quality of the data they're adding, which they agreed to implement ASAP.

Among other things, they disclosed that this effort is related to their barangay's registry for issuing "Certificates of Land Occupancy", but the data will also be used to create community hazards and vulnerability maps in the future.

The editors who were adding data back in December were interns doing their OJT for the barangay.

They were encouraged to publish details about their project, as expected for organized editing activities under OSMF guidelines: Lupang Arenda Community Mapping wiki page.

govvin commented 5 years ago

We have been in close contact with the barangay staff in charge of the community mapping effort, and they are planning to meet with some advocates in June, to:

More details to be posted as soon as they've been finalized.

The activity is scheduled on July 7, unless it rains.
