Hooked on mapping. I visit a lot of natural areas where I like to map the trails. There is always something new that can be added to OSM.

I use the OSMAND and Vespucci Apps on an android phone. I take pictures of objects I want to add to the map.

I use the JOSM editor and many of the time-saving plugins.

I’m deeply involved in the import of address data in Massachusetts and fixing tiger roads in Maine.

I recently started geocaching and find many opportunities to update OSM.

Please feel free to contact me.
