Hello Regie, and welcome, The basic idea for collecting data for OpenStreetMap is covered here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Beginners%27_Guide You'll find that folks collect and check data for OSM on foot, bike or by vehicle. Depending on the nature of the data that interests you, and on the condition of the map in that area, collecting might require only a paper and pencil, or GPS. _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
