I wonder if this story could be used to inspire an OpenStreetMap mapathon in Eromanga. We could stump up some money from the OSM SIG pool of funds to cover food/drinks, find a local venue, and then skype in to show how everyone in the town can contribute to OpenStreetMap.
Probably just need one local (Mayor) perhaps to help us with on the ground coordination. Crazy idea or something we should do? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-04-14/google-maps-outback-queensland-street-view-inaccurate/100065310 ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Charles Gregory <[email protected]> Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2021 at 19:54 Subject: [talk-au] ABC article - Google Maps in Eromanga To: talk-au <[email protected]> I notice this article: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-04-14/google-maps-outback-queensland-street-view-inaccurate/100065310 A good opportunity to make sure the town is 100% accurate (and detailed) in OSM. Assuming we can locate some appropriately licensed sources of course - it's a bit of a trek to get there in person.
