Six Months of belonging to OSM

Postitas drlizau kuupäeval 27. mai 2008 – English.

So I've belonged to OSM now for slightly more than 6 months.
I haven't been out in my car for a couple of months after getting water in the motor on a long mapping trip, but last weekend we went in the work ute to Wollongong. After 150km we decided it was time to get a map and choose a route which was unmapped.
So we went exploring, mapped a bit in some towns and villages and finally got back to the main road.
On the way home another unmapped road was chosen, but more fun than that I tried taking photos of street and road signs, for geotagging. It's quite an art getting a photo in focus at 100kmh so some are good and others aren't.
It's great to photograph strange road junctions, overhead bridges with height limits, road names, the speed limit signs and faster than the pen and paper method. Then the camera battery was flat and the photos were stopped.
I'm having a lot of fun deciding where to go and what to see, and still lending out my GPS to get more traces of more roads.
