This Book: HOTOSM Tasking Manager Default Instruction Set

This is a GitBook repository focused on collaborative editing to arrive at a community consensus on an improved set of default Tasking Manager project instructions as well as generate documentation for the Tasking Manager.

The chapters in the book are organized around different mapping object types, e.g., building mapping instructions, road mapping instructions, general mapping instructions, waterways and so on.

A full default set of instructions will be made available at project creation time and Project Managers can select which object types they would like the default instructions for, with translations. Those will become the default instructions for that object type for that project.

Our goal is to create consistent and high quality instructions that are entered by default to ensure that the best set of instructions available when the project is created. In turn, this will also support translation. If project managers use the default set of instructions the TM will provide for translation in a minimum of five languages. GitBook also provides an easily printable PDF version of these instructions or a subset in these five languages.
