Mapping in the wilderness

Geplaatst door GerardSharp op 29 december 2010 in het English.

Well, actually, Matarangi Beach is more of a holiday town and less of a wilderness.
It even has 3G coverage.

I'm mapping using my Nokia N900 phone++; it even has an app called "OSM2GO" which claims to let you make changes directly - walk up to a signpost, add a node where the real-time GPS track shows and annotate it. No more "make track" and "wait until I get to a real computer to update the database".

Only one problem. "osm2go" can't seem to log onto the website when it's on a 3G network. It can only upload or download when I'm at home on WiFi again.

So now I'm annotating and uploading my GPS tracks. Expect to see Matarangi Beach when the map renders again next.

I do not use osm2go myself, but this is definitely possible.
