GROWING LOCAL MAPPING COMMUNITIES IN
RURAL TANZANIA TO AID DEVELOPMENT
WE’RE MAPPING RURAL TANZANIA. WHY?
• Remote villages are EXTREMELY poorly
mapped.
• Local officials lack maps of their area.
• This makes navigation and planning
difficult.
• We are mapping onto OpenStreetMap
that is accessible to everyone online and
on phones, and to print paper maps.
WE’RE MAPPING RURAL TANZANIA. WHY?
• Much of rural Tanzania is blank in Google Maps and OpenStreetMap.
MOST RURAL TANZANIA LOOKED LIKE
THIS WHEN WE STARTED - AND MUCH OF
IT STILL DOES..
Zeze village, Kigoma,
population 9200
WE’RE MAPPING RURAL TANZANIA. WHY?
FIRST STAGE: SATELLITE MAPPING BY VOLUNTEERS
Ramani Huria
volunteers mapping
in Dar es Salaam.
SATELLITE MAPPING VIA HOT TASK MANAGER/project/1788
Online volunteers trace
roads and villages from
satellite images.
TRANSFERRING GOV OPEN DATA TO OSM
data from http://opendata.go.tz/
TRANSFERRING GOV OPEN DATA TO OSM
Over 600 online
volunteers manually
added schools and
clinics.
2ND STAGE: FIELD MAPPING ON MAPS.ME
Community volunteers
in rural Tanzania add
local knowledge via
free app.
FIELD MAPPING
Use Maps.Me to map:
• Village Office
• Schools
• Dispensaries/health
centers/hospitals
• Water points
• Mpesa shops
• Legal office
• Churches
• Police stations
• Shops
• FGM Activist House
3RD STAGE: FIELD PAPERS
4TH STAGE: PRINTED MAPS
1ST STATE OF THE MAP TANZANIA AT DLAB WITH RAMANI HURIA & DATA ZETU
ORGANISED OPEN DATA CONFERENCE AT IRDP MWANZA, MAR 2018
ACCESS TO WATER
Overlaying
population
density to
water point
locations to
assess relative
need of
applications.
VILLAGE LAND USE PLANS
WHAT WE’VE ACHIEVED..
• We’ve now recruited over 5000 online volunteers and
over 600 local mappers.
• mapped an area of over 17,248 square kilometres,
added 23 towns and 363 villages and 45 hamlets.
• added over 96,742 km of roads and tracks and over
2.1 million buildings.
• Countrywide we have added 12,294 schools and 162
clinics to Openstreetmap from government open
data.

How OpenStreetMap and community mapping in Tanzania can help rural development

  • 1. Janet Chapman j.chapman@tanzdevtrust.org GROWING LOCAL MAPPING COMMUNITIES IN RURAL TANZANIA TO AID DEVELOPMENT
  • 2. WE’RE MAPPING RURAL TANZANIA. WHY? • Remote villages are EXTREMELY poorly mapped. • Local officials lack maps of their area. • This makes navigation and planning difficult. • We are mapping onto OpenStreetMap that is accessible to everyone online and on phones, and to print paper maps.
  • 3. WE’RE MAPPING RURAL TANZANIA. WHY? • Much of rural Tanzania is blank in Google Maps and OpenStreetMap. MOST RURAL TANZANIA LOOKED LIKE THIS WHEN WE STARTED - AND MUCH OF IT STILL DOES.. Zeze village, Kigoma, population 9200
  • 4. WE’RE MAPPING RURAL TANZANIA. WHY?
  • 5. FIRST STAGE: SATELLITE MAPPING BY VOLUNTEERS Ramani Huria volunteers mapping in Dar es Salaam.
  • 6. SATELLITE MAPPING VIA HOT TASK MANAGER/project/1788 Online volunteers trace roads and villages from satellite images.
  • 7. TRANSFERRING GOV OPEN DATA TO OSM data from http://opendata.go.tz/
  • 8. TRANSFERRING GOV OPEN DATA TO OSM Over 600 online volunteers manually added schools and clinics.
  • 9. 2ND STAGE: FIELD MAPPING ON MAPS.ME Community volunteers in rural Tanzania add local knowledge via free app.
  • 10. FIELD MAPPING Use Maps.Me to map: • Village Office • Schools • Dispensaries/health centers/hospitals • Water points • Mpesa shops • Legal office • Churches • Police stations • Shops • FGM Activist House

  • 17. ACCESS TO WATER Overlaying population density to water point locations to assess relative need of applications.
  • 19. WHAT WE’VE ACHIEVED.. • We’ve now recruited over 5000 online volunteers and over 600 local mappers. • mapped an area of over 17,248 square kilometres, added 23 towns and 363 villages and 45 hamlets. • added over 96,742 km of roads and tracks and over 2.1 million buildings. • Countrywide we have added 12,294 schools and 162 clinics to Openstreetmap from government open data.
