I'm going to be camping in Oregon in a week. OSM didn't seem to include any campsites in that area so I downloaded positions from the USFS and a private operator and imported them using ogr2ogr, gpsbabel and josm.
The USFS data is public domain. I updated http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Potential_Datasources#US_Forest_Service For the data I got from the google map at http://www.hoodoo.com/oregon_home.htm I emailed hoodoo and got this reply: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 2:28 PM Subject: Re: importing campsite locations into Open Street Map Our map comes from Google and I doubt that you need my permission, but if you do, you have it. Hope things go well, Chuck Do I need to ping this list for future tiny imports like this? Sorry for not asking first. I wanted to make sure I could do the import before asking and before I knew it the data was uploaded. ;-) http://toolserver.org/~kolossos/osm/osm-paths-gm.php?kml=http://tools.wikimedia.de/~kolossos/osm/cache/bm9kZVt0b3VyaXNtPWNhbXBfc2l0ZV1bYmJveD0tMTIzLDQzLC0xMjIsNDVd.kmz http://openstreetmap.org/?lat=43.67149&lon=-122.4316&zoom=17&layers=0B0FTFT If there is a problem look for nodes with tag source_ref= http://www.hoodoo.com/oregon_home.htm or source_ref= http://www.fs.fed.us/r6/data-library/gis/umpqua/documents/rec_site_pt.zip
