Hi Jubal
The missing OSM information in Australia that would be, by a large
margin, the most usefull, would be address data (and building
footprint, if available).
If we had address data then OSM maps would be usefull for the genberal
public to use in car navigation etc.
Collecting address data manually is tedious and unsafe. I believe
that the address data is available for some states and if addedd to
OSM, would make OSM the premier mapping source here.
The state of NSW address data is available through the LPI Base Map.
Most address benefit would be through the retail/commercial centres of
cities, towns and villages.
Entering this data is tedious as there is a lot of it and visual
motivation is lacking as it makes little visual difference to the map.
