Disconnected the Millharbour/Marsh Wall Junction in the Isle of Dogs as it's currently a no-through road due to building works. Doesn't look like it'll be finished anytime soon, either.

Da ich noch kein GPS-Empfänger habe werde ich erstmal die ganzen Geschäfte u. ä. eintragen von denen ich mir 100 %ig sicher bin das sie an der Stelle stehen. Ausserdem werde ich noch versuchen einige Fehler auszubessern.

Hallo, Bei einigen Gebäuden sind einige Ecken schwarze Punkte. Was ist das? Und warum?
//English// Hello, at some buildings are some of the corners black Points. What is it and why?

You can see it here very good: // Hier kann man das sehr gut sehen:

Test

Wife is learning to drive, so now i take my rig out with us when we are moving. It helps to also show here a trace of where she has been. So now collecting even more traces of the local area and some of the test routes used by the examiners.
Now I really should find the time to put them up and edit them. Need to figure out how to put photos with some of the data as well. I was reading that someone else from LUG RADIO Live 2008 has been bitten and is going to put POST Boxes into the data... What a brilliant idea, i will try to do this and also add some of the phone boxes that still exist.
Since my vehicle runs on LPG i shall have to make an effort to include places that dispense this, as my gps traffic guide does not always have the most up to date information and when you are running on the last gasps of LPG you dont want to have to use Petrol. Following directions to something that has since closed is never enjoyable.

I've just done my first bit of editing ever! Yay! Heard of OSM a year or two ago, but being at LugRadioLive '08 UK t'other weekend and then hearing someone from OSM chat about it on the Ubuntu-UK podcast, I was inspired. In particular by their mention of postvoxes. They never appear on any other maps, and I have done some part-time work for Post Office Ltd in a past life, so I'm taking it on myself to map all the ones I can find.

Firstly, between home (Balham/Tooting area, SW London) and work (the City, EC) on my daily cycle commute but I may go a little further afield/try to map others I remember from previous places I've lived at. May go some interesting routes/take minor detours to catch some others if I get bored on the regular path.

I recently took a trip into south Bradford which I performed my usual survey. Came to enter the data and discovered something very odd at 53.7667933,-1.8575975 (Junction of A647 and A644) does this signify something other than someone being silly? or have I missed something?

Well, up to now my mapping has been pretty well all by myself. Saturday though I joined a couple of others at York for an afternoon mapping. I might have missed a couple of details, but I think I, about, completed the block surrounded by Bishopthorpe Rd, Scarcroft Rd, Nunnery Lane and Tadcaster Rd. A return trip will be in order to map the flats within St Benedict Rd.

It was good to see how others do things, not seen the synchronise images with a gpx trace. Very useful.

Shame the servers have been down, I still have a couple of traces to upload from today.

Spending a great weekend in Tipperary, we covered quite a few roads. I've now completed the R668 (Cahir to Lismore), which towards it's southern end is a mixture of great scenery at The Vee, and some truly awful roads — narrow, very twisty, bumpy, and overshadowed with trees. My GPS traces in places drift apart (we were on it three times!), so more traces would be good. It's worth seeing, anyway!

I also managed to complete the related R669, and identified an existing road on the map as the R670. Conversely, I found a trace in the database with no way that turns out to be the R665 from Clogheen to Mitchelstown, so that's nearly complete too. Some other fragments in Cashel, including an off-ramp from the N8 made for a reasonably productive mapping weekend.

Does anyone know what the N24 through Cahir is now classed as (it appears the N24 has moved to a bypass, although I never saw it personally)? I'm guessing R527, but it's still signposted as the N24. For the hundreds of millions of euro they spend, the NRA never seem to have a budget for re-signing the old roads...

These are pretty stunning: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7539529.stm

That said, it would also be awesome to see a rendering of the movements of OSM mappers (as derived from uploaded GPS traces) plotted on a world map :-) I wonder how many people you'd see active at once - surely the activity much be fairly constant these days!

Today I finally registered on OpenStreeMap and I'm planning to extend the maps in surrounding area. For this reason I ordered a Transystem i-Blue 747, which I will use together with my bike and a digital camera for traces.
I'll post a follow-up when the device arrives.

Gibt es inzwischen eigentlich sowas? Also Knopf drücken und ein Gebiet ist wieder beim alten? Bei mir in der Gegend hat nämlich son Vollidiot ne Menge schon vorhandene Wege einfach nachgezeichnet (wohl mit JOSM oder so?). Jetzt ist alles so doppelt.
Siehe hier in Postlatch (ist noch nicht gerendert):

Kann man die irgendwie wieder schnell wegbekommen? Ich hab zumindest keine Lust dazu 60 lange Straßen oder wieviele davon betroffen sind zu löschen (sind ja doppelt übereinander)...

Last night I sorted out my photos from the 4th Anniversary party, and stuck them on the wiki. All good fun, but I fear the japanese have out-done us

Mein erster Testupload mit meinem Freerunner.
TFFIX war leider etwas über 200 Sekunden; danach aber stabil 7-9 Satelliten bei gutem Signal (HDOP 1.2), selbst im Gebäude blieb das Signal gut (HDOP 2.0-2.5).

Leider ist grad der GPS-Upload down, drum werde ich noch etwas warten müssen, die Daten einzupflegen...

Hi Leute
ich habe mich hier registriert, weil ich etliche Fehler
in der Darstellung meines Ortes gefunden habe.
Ich bräuchte aber eine Anleitung, wie ich diese "Fehler"
makieren kann und wir ein Komenrar eingbunden werden kann!
Es mag sein das eine Solche schon in englisch vorliegt,
doch mit englisch kann ich nichts anfangen.
Ist es möglich mir eine zukommen zu lassen, oder wenn
es eine im Netz gibt, mir den Link dahin schicken?
Danke

Does anyone know what is going on? I can't get to various pages, including 'GPS Traces', and 'My traces'. The error is '403 Forbidden'.

Wo ist Nürnberg? Was ist Fürth?

Keine Ahnung was für ein Spaßvogel die 2.größte Stadt Bayerns derart verunglimpft hat, aber kann das bitte jmd rückgängig machen? Fürth ist bereits auf der Deutschlandkarte zu sehen, wohingegen Nürnberg erst bei einem sehr großem ZoomWert erscheint! Jeder, der mal in eine echte Karte sehen würde, würde sowas sofort sehen. Wer hat das bloß freigegeben?

Ich kanns leider nicht, sonst hätte ichs schon angepasst!

Hallo,
kann mich jemand aufklären, warum 403 forbidden erscheint, wenn ich GPS-Traces aufrufe? Wie kann ich sonst meine GPS-Daten in OpenStreetMap einstellen?
Vielen Dank,
Wolle

Mal ne Dreiviertelstunde mit dem Radel durch Oberndorf und so ziemlich jede Straße und Fußweg erwischt.

I also map a few tracks from former holidays. Not meant for mapping the resolution of the tracks is not too good but better such a way than none mapped. I have tracks from the Zugspitze, from Scotland and from Tenerife.
