Hi all, I mentioned OpenStreetMap.com before, and it's hugely additive. I've been working on the areas around the Crowsnest Pass, but wonder whether anyone within CLUG would be interested in doing some 'mapping parties' around the smaller communities in the Calgary area.
The basic idea would be to drive out to somewhere (say Bragg Creek) with a group, set up a 'base' and assign areas to different people who could map in cars, on bike or on foot. Could throw a few bikes on the car and drive out with 4 in a car. The data could then be uploaded on the day to OSM, and processed later into roads tagged the appropriate names, etc. Good food and beer afterwards of course. Ideally for me this would be best as an evening event (roll on summer evenings), as my weekends are a little busy. Anyone interested? Simon. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
