OpenStreetMap
Last weekend I was making map of next sector in my hometown. I set resolution to 2meters and after 1hour (15km) I wanted to export data to gpx.. but it failed. TrailExplorer (for mobile phone) just says "saving" and nothing happens. Good thing i checked the "save track" box this time, so i could export to at least kml..
Yeah and then come in the difficulties with OSM or maybe the kml file. I converted it to gpx using gpsbabel, i filtered out tracks, later on i saw that markers (with km and speed) are still there, so i carefully opened file with text aditor and removed wapoing tags (from to ). File was pretty ok (if we dont count some random line in the beginning (but that could be when gps just started and made some initial glitch)..
I uploaded it to OSM and could even edit.. but yesterday`s evening it was gone.. I uploaded it one more time but this morning it is gone again.. so I uploaded it one more time..
what could be the problem? :(

Chances are the trackpoints are missing timestamps. You should get an email with success or failure of the upload.

uff.... you`re right! :/ Last time i had those tags
57.5
0.9
1.3
1.6
3D
but this time i have only
31.000000
No time tag.. and kml file is also missing that information.. it has time only in name tags..
21:15:32, 15.0 km/h
Maybe i can get track data from phone and transfer to some other phone/emulator to export properly, cause i would really like to document my work.
kk, thanks for tip, POHB!

You can just edit some timestamps back in. OMS doesn't care what the times are, but it wants them to be there. Just set them all to the rough date/time that you made the track.
