A few years back, I successfully led a crowdfunding effort to raise £975 to purchase scans of the 1970s / 1980s 1:50k topographic map series of South West Africa / Namibia from a commercial map archive. It was a great success and I put them online: https://namibia-topo.openstreetmap.org.za/

Recently I have been speaking to the archive again about purchasing similar map series for other African countries. The map series vary per country from the 1960s to 1990s. Many were created with support from the United Kingdom’s former Directorate of Overseas Surveys (DOS).

The 1991 1:50k Topographic series of Swaziland (now Eswatini) published by the Swaziland’s Surveyor General is available. It is made up of 31 sheets in total. The scans are supplied clipped and unclipped. Total price is US$ 400 for the scans.

It would be fantastic to get these maps online. Would you be willing to support this purchase?

Finished adding the Sishen-Saldanha railway line yesterday.

The >850km line carries iron ore to the deep water port of Saldanha.

Traced via Yahoo/Landsat, minor cleanups still needed.

Frederik Ramm is giving a talk about OSM at 24C3 in a few hours and I am an excited little bunny!

And this after discovering that Berlin is depressingly well mapped, time to ask the local guys where to go mapping.

If you are in Berlin get yourself over to 24C3, There is a OpenStreetMap workshop at 20:00 tonight, followed by Frederik's talk at 21:45 in hall 3.
