I've been confined at home by work and the weather, so haven't been able to map bridleways for a few days.

Instead, I spent some time today filling in features that are mostly visible at higher zooms - some drainage ditches near footways, the bridges in St John's College, some larger buildings on West and Grange Roads and within Churchill College. This is all from personal knowledge but after 8 years here my knowledge is pretty good!

A question: some Cambridge buildings have been drawn out as an area and tagged but also contain a lone node in their centre with the same tags. This causes Osmarender to render the details twice, although Mapnik seems to handle it better... Is this necessary anymore, or should the node tags for buildings be removed in the cases where an area for that building bears the same tags?

Since many universities (in the UK, at least) have a collegiate system, I also wondered if it would be worth having specific tags to identify individual college's lands as well as general university property.

I dared to take my GPS logger with me on the deathmarch.. This is a 100km (62 miles?) walk that starts at 9PM. You have 24 hours to complete. I was not alone. Some 9000 people joined me, but as far as I can tell from the traces, I was the only one mapping for OSM!

Unfortunately, the last 10km are not on the track. I had to give up due to low blood pressure (almost passed out) and a swollen ankle. Next year, I'll get us those last 10 km.

I hope to enter the whole march as a relation, so that I can maybe convince the organisation of using our map next year.

Die Stadtwaldsiedlung wurde in groben Zügen fertiggestellt. Weiters wurden einige Güterwege ergänzt, die den MistelbachAktivRing bilden.

Hi,

I've heard of osm project earlier, and already did some minor mapping. But today i actively rode some 'unknown' bicycle tracks just for this project - So, mapping was this time no more a by-product of just sports activity.

The downside is to stop for every crossing - 6 clicks on gps for every waypoint is horrible time consuming and interrupts training effords :-(

Greetings

... how many kilometers it takes to map a relative small area. The northern side of Wettingen and a bit of the forest was about 45 km distances. OpenStreetMap starts to pay out as a real fitness tool :-)

Took a trip up the coast to Langebaan today for a family outing and posted my first track. A section of it had not yet been mapped, so I completed that - it's great to think that I'm contributing to something other people will use!

I have just started a few days ago and have already mapped a bunch of the major streets. I will have to continue on this next weekend. It's a fun hobby. Drive around collect data then draw out the streets. I live in the interior of Colombia and maps for my GPS are not available. So I am hoping with this exercise I am producing maps for our city. But I still have one question after reading through the web site. I am hoping that after I finish mapping I can some how download a file to my GPS. Is this possible? I have an Amcor GPS and it has limited information on how to download file to the GPS. Is anyone more savvy with this that can help me out.
Thanks Vic

Einige Ergänzungen: Leopoldshafen (Heimatmuseum, Rheinhalle, Sportplätze), neuer Kreisverkehr in Blankenloch, Schloss Stutensee, Friedrichstal). Friedrichstal sollte jetzt wirklich komplett sein.

Zahlreiche Straßennamen in den vielen Orten der Gemeinde Vechelde ergänzt.
Demnächst werden die fehlenden Straßen in einigen Orten getrackt.

Bin mit dem Velo im Hegiberg herumgefahren. Mein GPS (rel. altes Garmin eTrex [das gelbe]) hat leider keinen guten Empfang im Wald, zudem habe ich v.a. bergauf einen grossen Empfangsbereich mit dem Körper abgedeckt (GPS auf Lenkstange montiert). Habe daher immer mal wieder Pause gemacht, um einen besseren Fix zu kriegen.

Mittlerweile ist ein Grossteil des Hegibergs erfasst.

Hallo zusammen,
ich habe ein Navigon 7110 mit dem ich nach einiger Recherche nun doch Loggen kann in dem ich eine .ini-Datei anpasse. Ausgegeben werden mir hier nun txt-Dateien wie auch im Wiki beschrieben.

Anschließend öffne ich GPSBabel und lade diese Datei ein, wähle als Inputformat "NMEA 0183 sentences" und als Output "GPX XML".
Im Operating Mode, habe ich alles angehakt und einmal auch NUR Waypoints getestet, das Ergebnis ist das selbe :( Nach dem Upload zeigt er EINE gerade Linie...

Was mache ich falsch?

Die Anleitung habe ich hier gefunden:

Visiting family and relatives and managed to do a little more infill in South Wales. Some minor roads to west of Chepstow, including some of lcn 31 and 32; all road detail of Sedbury and Beachley; and as much as I could get of Dulverton. Noticed original Severn Bridge (M48) and it's associated footway/cycleway is not shown as bridge, but unsure of where bridge actually starts and finishes, so left for another time.

Heute Köchingen (südlich Vechelde) abgefahren und außerdem kleiner Test mit Hausnummern in der Südstraße in Vechelde.

In Eggenstein sind jetzt das Sportgelände des FC Alemannia, das Sportzentrum, das Schulzentrum und das Hallenbad besser erfasst, zudem der Eggensteiner Grillplatz.

Das neue Leopoldshafener Baugebiet "Viermorgen III" war bisher nur mit seinen Umrissen in OSM vertreten - jetzt sind die Straßen und Wege, soweit begehbar, aufgenommen. Strassennamen hab ich leider noch nciht verfügbar... Auch der im Bau befindliche Kreisverkehr an der Leopoldshafener Straße ist schon mal angelegt.

Good morning.

I am making progress learning PERL. Wrote my first prime checker. It's quite fast compared to earlier versions written in basic, pascal and the like. OK, C(++) was faster. Let's see if I can write something useful for OSM shortly.

Cheers

Working away at digitizing this trail.

Puh, so langsam kommen da schon einige Haltestellen zusammen. Morgen mal weitermachen.

Adding more roads and detail to the Hassocks area
