Cardiff, Wales and OSM

Posted by SchematicMapper on 12 August 2008 in English.

Since I was going back to my home town of Cardiff, Wales recently, I thought I'd see how much of it is on OpenStreetMap. Finding out that very little of Cardiff North is on there, I was mortified, and have set out to remedy this. Cardiff seriously needs some OSM love, so knowing my own area, and almost all the streets very well, I have so far managed to get pretty much all of the suburbs of Rhiwbina and Pantmawr on OSM in quite a bit of detail, and parts of Thornhill, Llanishen and Lisvane and Parc Code y Wenallt too.

I suspect this is going to be a long term task, and hopefully, given someone else has already done some excellent work in Cardiff, I may find some others with local knowledge who are taking this City on. Certainly the next time I am in Cardiff, I intend to do some serious wandering around with my Garmin GPS.
