[OSM-talk] British Antarctic Territories

2011-09-26 Thread Andy Robinson (blackadder-lists)
An unmapped area in OSM currently is the Antarctic Peninsular south of
Argentina. Thanks to the National Library of Australia I have a number of
mostly out of copyright (or nearly so) British Ordnance Survey Maps for the
British Antarctic Territories . The full list of them can be found here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:OS_Misc_maps.pdf


An example for Deception Island:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:OS_DeceptionIsland1960.png

If anyone is interested in this area let me know and I'll include getting
the maps scanned when I'm done others.

Most of the maps will have limited positional accuracy because the surveying
was mostly done by various Antarctic survey traverses, they do however have
plenty of place/natural feature names that will be useful. Place Names
should be those as agreed by the Antarctic Place-names Committee (APC).

Cheers
Andy

A while back I downloaded some 7000 full resolution scans from the
NLA, mostly public domain. e.g. like this one
http://nla.gov.au/nla.map-rm4049. I've been using them here and there
for OSM where I tag with source_ref(:.+)?=http://nla.gov.au/* However
I had a quick look by couldn't find yours among these. They should be
a nice addition!

Dear Andy,

A _relatively_ unmapped area. The Villa Las Estrellas (Post Office, School,
Library, Hospital, Bank, the Russian Ortodox Church, etc.), the Base
Presidente Eduardo Frei Montalva, and the Aeródromo Teniente Rodolfo Marsh
(runway, apron, and VOR beacon), all in the Isla Rey Jorge (King George
Island) have been mapped for a couple of years (Jul/2009):
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-62.195lon=-58.9767zoom=14layers=M

Also the user Blazejos has been mapping the Arctowski (Polish) Base for
some time:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-62.18318lon=-58.47755zoom=15layers=M

Best Regards,
