Tuli tänään käytyä Hyvinkäällä ja kun kyseisestä kaupungista ei ole kuin päätiet kartoitettu, niin otin mokkulan mukaan ja ajelin vähän pienempiä teitä talteen. Tällä hetkellä ei tosin aika riitä kartan piirtämiseen, mutta jos joku haluaa jeesata, niin se olisi hieno homma!

Varmaan talven aikana käyn useammankin kerran kyseisessä kaupungissa ja voin jatkossa ajella vähän eri reittejä talteen.

Ad una decina di giorni dalla scoperta ed immediata registrazione al sito ho tracciato:

GENOVA: vie tra Marassi, San Fruttuoso, San Martino, Centro Storico (ma tracciare col GPS nei vicoli è quasi impossibile).
Molti POI (Point Of Interest) tra bancomat, distributori carburante, parcheggi.
Parecchi nomi di vie.

Chiavari: alcune strade principali e la strada verso Leivi.

Serravalle - Novi Ligure: parte della SS35bis ed alcune strade di Novi L.

I looked yesterday on the Israeli Map and found out that there are not even all highways shown on the map.

So I started editing the map including the ways of gps logs of others.
I also changed the city Netanya to the right place.

Hope that I can get my GPS to log my driven ways to give more informations.

Mapped another 20km east of Armidale along the Grafton Road, then down the Kempsey Road. Turned right off the Kempsey Road onto Raspberry Road, a State Forest road. Then right again down Halls Peak trail - a fire trail down to the Chandler River in Oxley Wild Rivers National Park. The latter is for four-wheel-drive vehicles (or walkers) *only*.

Nachdem ich schon den Tankumsee umrundet hatte, heute mal die echte Herausforderung: Leiferder Viehmoor und die Oker bei Meinersen. Da ist Intuition gefragt, und wenn jemand dahin kommt, kann er sehr gerne noch Meßwerte ergänzen. (Und mir einen Hinweis geben, wo genau der Cache Fischspaß sein soll).

I had some spare time, so I remembered I still had some GPX Trails from my last holliday on the island Mallorca. They fit very well with the data that's allready there, because by chance we drove exactly along those streets which were missing until now, so I could continue the dead ends that existed in the map.

Took advantage of a Christmas visit to my parent's in Somerset to map some more of Crewkerne and fill in some missing A roads.

On the way down I got the A357 between the A303 and A30, but it turned out somebody else had beaten me to that my a few days, but I still filled in the missing chunk of the A359 between the A303 and Yeovil so my strangely meandering route was not entirely pointless.

Some of the detail of Crewkerne was then filled in, along with some of the surrounding area, including the missing bit of the A3066 between the A30 and A356 to the east of Crewkerne.

Finally I manage to finish off the missing bits of A30 - the missing bits to the east of Crewkerne had recently been filled in but Crewkerne to Chard was still missing (or not as it turned out - all bar a few hundred meters was present but not tagged correctly).

Frederik Ramm is giving a talk about OSM at 24C3 in a few hours and I am an excited little bunny!

And this after discovering that Berlin is depressingly well mapped, time to ask the local guys where to go mapping.

If you are in Berlin get yourself over to 24C3, There is a OpenStreetMap workshop at 20:00 tonight, followed by Frederik's talk at 21:45 in hall 3.

More walks around Marlborough yesterday has added to the area of the town now included on the map. I have uploaded these and also added a few post boxes, telephone boxes and footpaths. Lots to do still around Marlborough, but now I'm back home in Devon, so someone else will have to do it - when I'm up that way again I will hopefully be able to fill in anything still missing.
