FYI, I am working on the Cooks River Cycleway which I mapped over 2005-2006 and can do the M7 cycleway if needed. I've been able to re-create a map of my efforts from a January 2007 planet dump so have 1,000+ streets and paths over NSW and QLD that I can re-map using Bing imagery. Dalby, Port Macquarie, Laurieton and some coastal villages are done. Brisbane and Toowoomba look good so I am now working on Sydney. Mostly this is Ultimo, Pyrmont, CBD, The Rocks, Elizabeth Bay and cycle trips around the eastern suburbs coast down to Cronulla.

May I ask armchair mappers if they would not mind mapping in streets as highway=road instead of highway=residential? Otherwise they look "done" and I miss them. Putting source=Bing also helps me know that you have not ground-surveyed them and that my older data may still be good.

Good luck to everyone on the ground with the remapping, alas I no longer live in Australia,

Hi.

BTW, in terms of cycle routes in Marrickville I managed to remap some in advance of the redaction, and I know where any missing ones go.

There is a page on the wiki for Sydney Cycle Routes (pre redaction). Most of the relations there should still exist, but I haven't had time to check them yet. I wondered about coordinating cycle route remapping. Maybe via the wiki page, and by LGA?

For remapping roads, Bing is very good in Sydney, although exercise is also good. :)

    I'm in Marrickville, but may be able to spend time cycling around and
    collecting traces in surrounding areas. Given that I haven't been an
    active mapper for a while, I'll have to re-familiarise myself with the
    tools again, and work out how to easily convert data from my Edge 800
    (FIT format) to GPX.

    All my previous mapping was done around Mullumbimby, and my primary
    focus is on recreating data from my old traces in that area.
