Feedback on a new OSM movement in French Polynesia
summary
French Polynesia maps community forms regular meetings since August and runs accessibility mapping parties that collect 250 accessible points across 118 islands with 280,000 people and poor internet. The urbanism service creates a unified database 2018 and releases data under Creative Commons, and volunteers are actively importing government data into OpenStreetMap. A pilot with a foundation funds five mappers one day a week to gather accessibility attributes, plus planned island field tours and short trainings to scale contributions.
