Mapping city (from scratch), railway station & the salt flat of Uyuni
於 2014年一月 7日 由 5m4u9 以English發表。 上一次更新在 2014年一月13日。With some time, I decided to improve the map of the city [1], railway station and the salt flat of Uyuni [2].
Uyuni
Uyuni is a city in the southwest of Bolivia [3]. It was founded to house the first largest railway station and major railway junction. Almost every road in the city are separated by a center field. Salt flat of Uyuni is the world’s largest salt flat with a pool of brine, which is exceptionally rich in lithium.

The Map
This city will be part of the competition Dakar, I added the much information as possible … since all the previous information was made by tourists.
I removed all previous roads and started from scratch to map. I added most of the hospitals, schools, gas station and places of common use. In the vast majority of the buildings I added 3D tags.
TODO: Points of interest, the surface & number of lanes of the roads and others.
- City of Uyuni: osm.org/#map=15/-20.4597/-66.8262
- Salt Flat of Uyuni: osm.org/relation/1769713
- Islands within the Salt Flat: osm.org/way/137612918 + osm.org/way/43540410

@baditaflorin: All I did in two month (10/nov to 07/jan), but the part of editing in JOSM took me one week for salt flat of Uyuni, one week for road/railway routes and 2.5 weeks for city of Uyuni.
It took me a long time to collect official information. Here in Bolivia, there is little official information available on the Internet must be requested in writing to the office of each ministry (transport, tourism, health) in the capital La Paz… located 400km away from where I live (Cochabamba).
In some cases, I resorted to articles published in blogs offering additional information. It helped me a lot the information (map of the city) that was published on the grounds of the Dakar competition.
Regarding methodology:
Repeat this for each category: natural areas, road routes, railway routes, ways and points of interest in the city.
