I really wonder why nobody has started mapping the famous island IBIZA?!

I've stared with preparing the larger major streets, and a few one where i've been on holidays. But there is SO MUCH to do. Comon, please help. The island deserves it :-)))

Ich nutze Yahoo Aerial Images in JOSM (unter Linux).

Ich habe vor wenigen Tagen bemerkt, dass die Bilder neueren Datums sind (statt Baustellen nun fertige Häuser, ...).

Die neuen Bilder sind offenbar im Winter (ohne Schnee) gemacht (vorher wohl eher im Sommer), so dass man die Waldwege besser sehen kann.

Gleichzeitig ist der Westen (westlich Schloß Nymphenburg) auch in besserer Auflösung verfügbar.

Ich habe angefangen, den "Durchblick" bis Schloß Blutenburg mit Hilfe Yahoo Aerial Images zu mappen. Noch fehlen Straßennamen, aber in Kürze werde ich in der Gegend sein und selbiges nachholen.

Revisiting a few places I mapped I found some of them had been unwayed segments. I've been fixing these (Stone - Staffordshire, Exeter - Devon, Oxfordshire.

Morwen,

I believe the maximum height that can appear on a low bridge sign is 16'6" - just over 5 metres. There is a bit of tolerance allowed - so in reality - I think it's 16'9" or about 5.1m before a bridge would go unsigned.

Mostly just looked for roads that weren't joined up today that should be. Finished connecting the Antrim Coast Road up to Ballycastle, added a variety of the roads up the Islandmagee Peninsuala, dualled the trunk road from Dundonald to Newtownards, finished the road from N'ards to Comber, and added a few of the back roads around that area. And a bunch of other smaller changes I've forgotten already.

IH&T run one of the better stories I've seen about satnavs directing HGVs down little village roads.

I recently added maxweight and maxheight to the things I note down when I see them. It might be nice to get these renderered. If we just added them to the default rendering, it'd be too cluttered. Maybe the solution is something like free-map.org.uk's approach to photographs, by overlaying little triangle roadsigns near each restriction, and two boxes wherein you can type the weight and height of your vehicle such that it shows only relevant restrictions.

(i wonder if there is a expected national maximum vehicle height - ie the limit of how tall bridges have to be before they're not signed as a lowbridge?)

the DfT have sent me a spreadsheet containing detailed data about the Primary Route Network (these are the roads which are green-signed and which we mark as highway=trunk in the UK). I've done spot checks on the spreadsheet and it seems to be an ideal level of detail for cross-checking to make sure we have the Network right. Interesting, many motorways are listed. I wonder if any small stretches of motorways aren't...

I haven't yet, though, used it to alter anything in OSM, as I'm not sure if this would be ok copyrightwise. I don't intend to copy it systemically out, but to use it discover errors and missing bits in our database. So I've written back asking for specific permission to do this.

I also asked if there was a centralised list of classified roads. Apparently there is not - this is handled by the Government Office Regions in England (and I guess by the Scottish and Welsh Governments). Maybe this explains the duplicate A594s!

The surroundings of the Ládví station are unbelievably undermapped. Started to fix that, adding the library and cinema. Then went to the Prosek library and mapped the few shops in the panel jungle.

Added the name of the street where my Gran used to live in Edinburgh.

Kauriala ajeltu ja piirrelty Parolantien pohjoispuolelta Härkätielle saakka. Joitakin pikkupätkiä puuttuu lähinnä Rinkelinmäen jäähallin tienoilta.

Avui s'actualitzaran al mapa general les modificacions que estat fent aquesta setmana a veure com quedera.

I realised that I made some small mistakes while tagging some small roads around the blocks of flats. I will try to remake that part

This part of the city is not completed. Not much to say

This weekend I took advantage of a trip to Rugeley in Staffordshire to map both the A513 to the east of Rugeley as far as King's Bromley (from where it was already mapped) and the new A51 Rugeley bypass which opened two months ago on 28th September.

Mapping of the Rugeley bypass is another first for OpenStreetMap as none of the major commercial mapping sites have it mapped yet.
