OpenStreetMap
Sharpening the pen and limping a sheet of paper
Käyttäjä Skippern kirjotti tämän 22. Maya 2009 kielellä EnglishIt is time to start using a different medium for surveying my area. Centro is as complete as I can do it with GPS and a car. I need a bike (to cover cycleways), and I need to start making a series of notes to add house numbers/house names, add amenities that I don't regularly use, find street names that still isn't in. Other items on the list cover such as:
* Zebra crossings
* Light signals
* Lit/unlit streets
* Turn restrictions
* Photo boxes
* Access restrictions
* CEP (postal codes of streets)
* Public phones
* Post boxes
* Gas station fuel types
* Restaurant Cuisine types
So with a dedicated notepad, a car and a bicycle, Guarapari will be even more set more on the map.

Don't forget cycle parking either! It's useful to note the capacity and whether it's covered or not.

I have switched to recording audio, and now talk to myself in the car lol.

I don't think there exists any cycle parkings in Guarapari, if I ever find one, I'll make sure to enter it into OSM.
Audio mapping doesn't sound that bad, at least I can hear from the tape when I passed a speed bump in too high speed...... That is by the way something more I need to enter into OSM....

What are photo boxes?
Kommentti käyttäjältä Skippern 23. May 2009 klo 16.49
it have different names in different countries, maybe you will call it speed camera? automated traffic enforcement?

I yes, speed cameras. I was pondering something similar to post boxes!
