Data Import
- Official german map of the federal state Rheinland-Pfalz [2]
- The map is available as WMS at http://wms.openstreetmap.de/ (layer named "Ruanda")
- Africover ([3]) and DEPHA ([4]) - have granted us (Development Seed ([5]) - permission to upload their base layers - roads, rivers, rails, admin boundaries. So far, we have uploaded the road shapefile. Outstanding work includes:
- Rivers - Africover
- Admin Boundaries (need to determine current status of OSM dataset before doing anything here) - Africover
External Datasets
- Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (Africover) ([6])- A project aimed at generating a database of GIS layers for the purpose of promoting sustainable management of environmental resources at national, regional and global levels. Rwanda data includes administrative and political boundaries, rivers, towns, and spatially/thematically aggregated landcover. We've received permission from Africover to import road, river, and administrative boundary data layers into OSM.
- Map Library ([7]) - A project of the Map Maker Trust. It has a simple base map, outline, and layers of administrative boundaries and areas, level one divisions, and satellite images.
- GeoCommunity ([8]) - A GIS data depot that provide premium downloads for a minimal cost and normal downloads free of charge. Available Rwanda layers include political/ocean boundaries, roads, populated places, and landcover.
Other datasets that might be useful:
- CGIAR Consortium for Spatial Information ([9] -Elevation layers for the world.
- Socioeconomic Data and Applications Center (SEDAC) ([10]) - Population layers for the world.
