To improve the map quality in Equatorial Guinea, we propose to make data improvements by sharing challenges, and when appropriate, fixing data errors, and adding or editing certain kinds of geometry.
How to participate
Anyone is welcome to contribute to this project by participating in our MapRoulette challenges. Here is the extended documentation for using MR. Note that sometimes additional instructions are provided within the challenges.
Challenges
Quality check challenges
Click to expand.
- [Impossible angle in a highway](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/19424)
In general, roads intended for vehicles should be built to maintain proper angles which ensure maneuvers and fluent traffic. Extreme, too sharp angles applied to a way may indicate errors in the road geometry.
- [Polygon has self-intersection](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/19419)
The necessary edits will be made to fix cases where the tag on a way indicates that the object is a polygon feature, but the way does not meet the definition of a closed way because it is self-intersecting, or ways in a relation with the same role form a self-intersecting polygon
- [Polygon is not closed](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/19418)
Features intended to be a polygon should be correctly tagged. When the tag indicates that the object should be a polygon, but the geometry is built out of a NON-closed way, an error is logged.
Geometry challenges

- [Missing Roads](https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/21829) (regional challenge for Central Africa)
Data analysis done by TomTom suggests that there should be a road or track here in OSM, but it is missing.
Geographical scope
Data improvements will be made across the whole country.
We will follow the Organised Editing Guidelines for this project. TomTom will not make any edits until two weeks after the project announcement. Here is our Organised Editing page, including a list of our editors.
How to find TomTom's edits
All edits made by our team have the hashtag #tt or #tomtom.
