Hi all, I am starting the process of pulling together a group to focus on updating and expanding trail data in OSM. The initial focus would be in the US but we are hoping the model could expand to other areas as well.
Initially the project would have two main focus areas – - Focused effort to gather public domain trail data and use it to update existing trail data in OSM through hybrid editing \ bulk upload methodology. - Build a custom version of Potlatch focused on trail mapping - Building trail mapping communities in the US. Here is where things get a little different than other similar efforts – I want much of the work to be done by paid interns and I want to fund it initially through Kickstarter and later though donations. I’d be interested to hear anyones thoughts, concerns, etc, and of course would love to know if anyone is interested in participating. Thanks.
