Hi,Mikel Maron wrote:Ushahidi, and others, are geocoding reports via OpenStreetMap. We want this to be as easy and accurate for them as possible. GetLatLon (http://www.getlatlon.com/) is a nice little site to do this, but uses Google Maps. Would someone be able to clone the site to use OSM, centered on Haiti?http://www.informationfreeway.org/?lat=18.594598850039358&lon=-72.35772051537789&zoom=10&layers=00000F0B0F has a coordinate display in the lower right. On www.openstreetmap.org you can easily draw up and measure a rectangle when you go to the "export" tab. The Geofabrik map site, http://tools.geofabrik.de/map/?type=Geofabrik&lon=-72.32060&lat=18.56929&zoom=12, not only has a coordinate display but you can also click on the "+" button in the lower right to see the borders of the map extent currently displayed. None of these is the one-stop shop you were looking for though. (Coordinate display on www.openstreetmap.org has been suggested by some, but was shot down because others felt it would only confuse the geo-illiterate users). Bye Frederik
