About us

  • The weeklyOSM team thanks you for your interest and we wish you a Happy New Year.

Mapping

  • Many people use navigation devices for their hiking trips and many navigation devices are based on OSM data. In OSM, however, official hiking trails are not distinguished from ‘unauthorised routes’. To help fix this problem OSM US has set up a Trails Working Group.
  • Cristoffs, in his diary, described (pl) / (en) OpenStreetMap Poland’s latest project to map AEDs (defibrillators) in Poland.

Imports

  • Okada Tsuneo plans to import the bus stops around Hiroshima City, Japan. More information can be found on the wiki.
  • The Spain OpenStreetMap community is carrying out an import project. The objective is to add buildings and addresses in parts of the country where they are not present, or to improve data if they already exist. They have recently started preparing a series of video tutorials explaining how to participate in the import. The first video is already available on YouTube (es) ((en) subtitles available).
