Building on the success of HOT's [Tasking Manager](https://tasks.hotosm.org), a tool
for coordinating remote digitization of map features, the FMTM was conceived with
the purpose of tagging the features with _field-verified_ information.

While there are many excellent applications for tagging map features already,
the FMTM aims to solve the problem of **coordinating** field mapping campaigns.

> More details can be found here:
> [overview](https://www.hotosm.org/updates/field-mapping-tasking-manager-fmtm),
> [timeline](https://docs.fmtm.dev/timeline),
> [docs](https://docs.fmtm.dev) page, and the
> [FAQ](https://docs.fmtm.dev/about/faq).

## How FMTM Works

1. Project is created in an area with three things:
- Data extract: the features you want to map, say building polygons.
- ODK XLSForm: the survey for mappers on the ground to fill out for each feature.
- Task areas divided by feature count and linear features (e.g. rivers, roads).
2. Users assign a task area for themselves, and generate a QR code that is opened
in ODK Collect.
3. User navigates to the feature and fills out the XLSForm survey, then submits.
4. The submissions are collected by ODK Central, which feeds the data back into
FMTM, for cleaning, conflation with existing data, and pushing back to OSM.

## Usage of ODK

This project relies heavily on the [ODK](getodk.org) ecosystem underneath:

- [XLSForms](https://xlsform.org) are used for the underlying data collection
survey. The fields in this survey can be mapped to OpenStreetMap tags.
- [ODK Central](https://github.com/getodk/central) is used to store the XLSForm
and receive data submissions from users.
- [ODK Collect](https://github.com/getodk/collect) is a mobile app that the user
submits data from.

## Contributing 👍🎉

In the wake of the 2010 Haiti earthquake, volunteer developers created the
Tasking Manager after seeing a similar coordination challenge for mapping
areas without existing data.

Now with over 500,000 volunteer mappers, the Tasking Manager is a go-to resource
for volunteers to map collaboratively.

To aid future disaster response, we would really welcome contributions for:

- Backend Python development
- Frontend Typescript development
- Documentation writers
- UI / UX designers
- Testers!
- XLSForm creators
- Mobile developers

Please take a look at our [Documentation](https://hotosm.github.io/fmtm)
and [contributor guidance](https://docs.fmtm.dev/CONTRIBUTING/)
for more details!

Reach out to us if any questions!

## Install

To install for a quick test, or on a production instance,
use the convenience script:

```sh
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://get.fmtm.dev | bash
```

Alternatively see the [docs](https://docs.fmtm.dev) for various deployment guides.
