+# 'Pin je Punt' - one year later
+
+About a year ago, we launched a mapping campaign at the request from [_Visit Flanders_ (Toerisme Vlaanderen)](toerismevlaanderen.be/pin-je-punt). (The project is explained below)
+
+A part of the campaign involved a guided import. The agencies had many datasets lying around (e.g. about benches or picnic tables) which they wanted to have imported in OSM. As doing a data import is hard - and the data was sometimes outdated, we opted for another approach: for every possible feature, a map note was created containing a friendly explanation and instructions to open MapComplete - which would close the map note on behalf of the contributor, marking them "imported", "not found" or "not valid" depending on what the contributor chose.
+
+Most map notes are closed by now, but the central question in this analysis today is: _should remaining map notes be closed in batch, or do we leave them open for longer_? Note that input of the local community will be gathered as well.
+
+## 
+
+
+## The project in a nutshell
+
+> This is what I sent to the Belgian Mailing list on the 5th of february. Note that the actual launch was later, around the 4th of March
+
+Toerisme Vlaanderen will be launching an OpenStreetMap-based project on
+the 14th of February. This is a rather big project which I'd like to
+introduce to you with this email. The project consists of a few parts
+which might have some impact:
+
+- A MapComplete theme with focus on some touristical POI's will be launched
+- A guided survey/data import will be started
+- Toerisme Vlaanderen will ask their partners to start mapping, so
+  hopefully we'll welcome a group of new mappers
+
+
+This project will focus on the following POI's:
+
+- Benches and picnic tables
+- (Public) toilets
+- Playgrounds,
+- electrical charging stations (with a focus on charging stations for
+  electrical bicycles)
+- Bicycle pumps and repair stations
+- and observation towers
+
+
+      *What is this project about?*
+
+/*Toerisme Vlaanderen*/ is a Flemish state agency which promotes tourism
+in Flanders, together with the 5 provincial touristical offices and some
+other organisations.
+Historically, these 5 offices have each held their own small set of
+geodata for typical items such as benches, public toilets, picnic
+tables, playgrounds, ... to put those items on their maps.
+
+And of course, these offices have kept this data in their own
+spreadsheets, in their own formats (except for one - which has been
+using OSM for years now).
+
+Toerisme Vlaanderen would like to unify all these databases into
+OpenStreetMap, increase the data quality of the items already there and
+improve the surveying flow.
+
+This is where MapComplete comes in. *MapComplete* <mapcomplete.osm.be/>
+is a web-app where one can show information about POI, can answer
+questions about these POI and can add new points. Depending on the
+chosen map, some categories of POI are shown.
+
+For this project, a theme showing (and asking information about)
+benches, picnictables, playgrounds, charging stations, ...  has been
+created and will be launched on 14 februari/. (If you look around a bit,
+you can already find a link to the theme, but another email will follow
+when the project is live.)/
+
+
+      A slow data import: methodology
+
+Of course, there is quite a bit of geodata laying around with the
+provincial offices, which ideally ends up in OpenStreetMap too.
+
+For this, a slow data import has been started. Instead of dumping all
+the data into OSM, a *map note* is created for every item that should be
+checked.
+
+This map note is structured in such a way that a contributor can use it,
+but MapComplete can also pick this up to show this to a contributor.
+This contributor can then quickly add/import the new feature if they
+found it, or they can mark the note as a duplicate or not existing
+anymore - closing the note in at the same time. These notes also link to
+both the wiki page and to the mapcomplete page where they can be easily
+added.
+
+As with all things in life, this method has advantages and drawbacks:
+
+- The biggest advantage is exposure of the import to experienced
+  contributors. (Case in point: I've already had valuable response on a
+  few notes within 24hours of them going live)
+- The import is tracked in OSM itself, containing a lot of information
+  and providing a flexible forum
+- It is quick and easy to setup
+- Others can make a similar note, which will be picked up by MapComplete
+  too!
