We have just uploaded an image for you and are happy to take other requests for other countries. We are currently working on something to lets others publish larger areas but this needs from more technical work behind the scenes before we can release it.

We have lots of things on our wish list and agree that having a pan and zoom buttons up to the top right of the image with a + button to the top right! It is however a different sort of scheduling problem to batch processing large views which is what we are working on at the moment. We would love to do both but are starting with the batch processing side of things and then we will see where we go from there. If you want to keep in touch with what we are doing then do subscribe to our blog which is not every active at the moment but will be the main communications medium for announcements. http://itoworld.blogspot.com/ Do also put any ideas and requests on the OSM Mapper page on the wiki.

Re: [OSM-talk] Updated view of 'A year of edits on OSM' and alsoSanta's Routes!
For 'people' read 'person'! Steve Chiltern has been demonstrating how much impact one person entering waterway details from NPE maps can have in a relatively short period of time and has done all the work in Wales, Cumbria and is evidently now starting in the south west. I am glad you like the images. We would encourage others to add interesting images they have created by OSM Mapper to the pool and to subscribe. We are also testing out some code to automatically upload images to Flickr so that a user can give OSM Mapper an API key for Flickr and would then be able to export an image directly onto their flickr site. We are working on the queuing software so that we can allow users to create some of the larger images that current only we can produce. More on that early in the new year on that.

Good Idea, I'll see if I can add an explanatory tag to this zone. By the way, the coordinates for the zone are public and may e.g. be found here: http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gråsonen (in nrwegian).

Would it be worth adding a wikipedia link to the way in question. I have used 'wikipedia=xxx' tagging for features with wikipedia article before but have now noticed that this tag hasn't made its way into map features. It would however be good not to loose this valuable explanation for a strange feature that others might remove or just puzzle over. Btw, I have updated the planet image on Flickr this morning and am pleased to say that it now looks clean (and very beautiful) :) Regard, Peter On 10 Dec 2008, at 09:30, Bernt M.
