Where do I go to start mapping areas that are less well mapped (me aimlessly poking at this does not sound like a good approach)? Assuming that there is less than 100% mapping of all common attributes in your area: Start in your neighborhood: are all speed limits entered? Turn restrictions? One way streets? -> those would be good to collect with Mapillary or as a passenger in a vehicle. Have addresses been imported? If not, and your county has a restricted data license, it may be a long time if ever before addresses can be imported. In that case, practice entering the address of every building where you routinely travel; restaurants, stores, work, etc. Otherwise, just start moving out into nearby towns or places you have lived or visited previously. ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
Re: [Talk-us] .... finding areas that are underserved
A couple ideas: Start with small rural towns near you. Check to make sure the streets are aligned properly to Bing. Check road names against recent tiger, county GIS, and of course the best is on the verifying with your own eyes. Then clean up tracks (dirt roads, 4wd trails, non-existent trials, etc) outside rural towns that may be tagged as residential.

[Talk-us] Fall River Massachusetts
any mappers near Fall River? we visited Battleship Cove today and discovered that the ramps surrounding the east end of the I-195 bridge have been extensively reconstructed and the road topology is noticeably different from what's in OSM. it could use some kind attention from someone with more time than i had available. richard -- rwe...@averillpark.net Averill Park Networking - GIS & IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
