Hi, thanks for mapping and welcome to HOT. You requested a review of your mappings.

The buildings you mapped are well done as to their location. But pay attention to the squareness of the corners. Most buildings do have right angled corners and we need our mapping to reflect that. Accurate building footprints are important because building sizes are often used to estimate population sizes for an area to conduct humanitarian activities. Always draw buildings as square and precise as you can. Then add the Building feature type. And last, right click it and click the square icon.

Hi, thanks for mapping. You requested a review of your mappings.

The majority of your buildings are well mapped. Good location, square corners and precise outline.

A few of them need tracing the shape more accurately. Zoom in so that you can see the outline of the building and mark the corners carefully. Don't include the building's shadow.

Thanks and regards, Martien, HOT validator.

Hi, thanks for mapping and welcome to HOT. You requested a review of your mappings.

The buildings you mapped are well done as to their location. But pay attention to the squareness of the corners. Most buildings do have right angled corners and we need our mapping to reflect that.

Also, please map each building as a separate object. Do not combine multiple nearby buildings into one. Zoom in so that you can see the outline of the roofs and look for the gaps between the buildings or different roof colors to help determine where one building ends and another begins.

Hi, thanks for mapping and welcome to HOT. You requested a review of your mappings.

The buildings you mapped are well done as to their location. But pay attention to the squareness of the corners. Most buildings have square corners because that's easy to build. Unless the building is clearly a different shape then it's best to assume that the corners should be squared. In the iD Editor, use the `Q` key to square the corners.

Hi, thanks for mapping. You requested a review of your mappings.

Your buildings are well mapped. Good location, square corners and precise outline.

There is only one building that needs fixing. You were probably fooled by the fact that a neighboring building cast a shadow on its roof, so that its outline did not looked square.

Thanks and regards, Martien, HOT validator.

Hi Laura, this highway is connecting settlements, so unclassified is a better tag imo.

Lokale kennis

Hi, thanks for mapping.

The buildings you mapped are well done as to their location.

However, you incorrectly tagged a few buildings with a layer=-1.

Layer is typically used when some things (like a bridge and a road) are on top of each other. The layer tag helps the map know which one is above or below the other in real life.

That is not the case here. Probably you were confused by the fact that your editor proposed to add a layer when buildings partly overlap each other.

Instead you should opt to reposition the buildings.

Hi, you mapped a few buildings over a highway.

Your editor will give a warning and propose to tag it as higher or lower.

However, you should instead opt to reposition the building or the highway.

Thanks for your attention and please keep mapping.

Hi, thanks for mapping. You requested a review of your mappings.

Your buildings are well mapped. Good location, square corners and precise outline.

A few buildings are mapped by snapping their corners to other buildings and features such as roads and paths. That should be avoided.

Thanks and regards, Martien, HOT validator.

Hi, you requested a review of your mappings.

These buildings were probably deleted bc of buildings mapped on top of existing buildings.

But please always leave a changeset comment (in addition to the already existing hashtag comment). Especially when deleting features.

Other mappers/validators will then be properly informed of the reason why deletion happened.

Thanks so much for your contribution, Martien, HOT global validator.

Hi Manjita, these 2 features have shadows inside the polygon. That means they are actually walls surroundings yards. The real buildings are the smaller structures inside the polygon.
