Yes, personally I believe it would be most helpful if we could just get the Lantmäteriet HQ to give us permission to use their aerial imagery for this project. I would suggest that the project defines what data is desired (type of data and geographical extents) and try to get permission to use

I started to add some roads around Kårböle about an hour ago, from NVDB. I've also added a few local names. However, Ekonomiska kartan does not seem to work for the area. For finding their way around, I guess roads and local names are most important? But I am a bit confused about the

Thank you all for your replies. The firefighters are from Poland and in Poland they use OSM exclusively for their work. They do not know where they will be assigned yet so hopefully later today. They said they generally are interested in roads, forestry roads, waterways and water bodies (lakes,
