Welcome to OSM.

When I started, my village only had half of the streets drawn. Now I’m finishing drawing the last houses (meanwhile did a lot of other places too btw).

Happy mapping

Welcome!

Some tips: Just be aware that especially phone gpses can be quite off the real location. Try to do several position readings and average - best would be on several days, but that is too much effort, imho.

Mobile software: I am using (besides “real” gps devices) ViewRanger (second page - can someone merge?) on Nokia/Symbian (it was/is offered for free) but it is also available for other operating systems. It is really nice and feature-heavy (takes some time to understand but it is worth it). E.g. you can set up the threshold for gps signal quality.
