Happy mapping.

mapping with new phone

Yes, OSMTracker is good, the only problem is that it doesn't save data immediatly. When your phone crashes, all data is lost.

Therefore, I always use a backup: I put OpenGpsTracker on while I use OSMTracker to add info and POIs.

Test succeeded :P

If you still need to draw the streets, you must use a GPS which tracks your movement. If the streets are drawn, you can use walking papers.

Hoi

Het is een leuke hobby, soms wat verslaven, maar dat neem ik er graag bij.

Als je hulp wilt, dan moet je die maar vragen.

happy mapping.

video and my tracks

What program/plugin do you use to sync the gpx track and the video file?

Request for comments on my Wiki sidebar proposal

It's good. I wouldn't drop the shop link, it's good there, next to the donations.

Bienvenu chez OSM,

Je sais que Paris est très complète mais il y a quand même encore beaucoup des POIs a mettre en carte.

J'espère que vous aimez bien le monde des informations libre et que vous aidez OSM a compléter la carte.

Si vous avez des questions, vous pouvez toujours les poser.

Happy mapping, et excusez moi pour mon français, je suis flamand, pas francophone.

New Phone!

It seems navit can display tracks on offline vector maps. Didn't try that though.

New Phone!

osmand needs continiously internet connection. Open-gpstracker is a very good app, the data survived every hardwarecrash I had. That means: if I'm recording a gps track and the phone suddenly lock up due to RAM problems, all the data taken until then is saved. If such a thing happens with OSM-tracker, all data is lost, only the non-geotagged pictures remain. If you want to take notes, you'll better be of with OSM-tracker. Open-Gpstracker has problems with exporting all kinds of notes.

So my solution: use OSM-tracker to take notes and run Open-Gpstracker in the background to be sure you have the trace. A good thing android has multi tasking :p

BTW, if you like complete open software and data, both programs are free and if you want free navigation, try navit (search for the apk).

Protected area with natural=water shows up in green

oh, misread, it's weird the other area doesn't show up green. Can't find a mistake.

Protected area with natural=water shows up in green

This is a render error and seems to be known:

osm.wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dnature_reserve

You link doesn't show the green area though, here's the correct link:

osm.org/?lat=17.94313&lon=-62.81877&zoom=17

Do not edit the tags but contact someone of the rendering team.

Mappers in de buurt van Aarschot.

Weet je hoe ik in contact kom met anderen? ik bekijk de geschiedenis van een gebied waar ik in bewerk en dan kijk ik wie er daar geen groot gebied bewerkt heeft, de grote gebieden zijn in de meeste gevallen botjes. Als ik mensen vind die mappen in mijn regio, dan maak ik ze "vriend".

Ik map niet in de buurt van aarschot, maar eind september kom ik naar leuven. Dat is niet zo ver van aarschot. Dus als je iets doet de zondag of in de werkweek, dan kom ik mss wel af.

Welkom bij OSM, happy mapping.

how to tag a speedway?

I don't remember if it was lit, but the serface was asfalt, do they sometimes use an other surface for speedways?

..

great text to read, I know that feeling, wanting to learn more about other mappers and I love reading personal stories.

Keep up the good work.
