If you mean you're going to copy over portions from the "google map" for your area when you say "not worry about licenses" please don't: you'll be infringing copyright and we'll just have to delete what you've added.

I hope the grey wolf enclosure is still there! 10 years since I was there and remember it vividly.

It certainly would be nice/useful for them to attribute OpenStreetMap for what they have done - at the very least we could use it as free advertising for the project. That said, John Smith probably has a valid point. Perhaps we just need to gently educate their legal dept?

I tend to bring along a few printouts of one of these 'posters' with me and given one to anyone that asks what I'm doing.

I don't think this actually is spam. kiwia's solo entry is for Arrowtown near Queensland Lakes in NZ, which is where the company behind the linked website is based. Harshness thy name is lyx :D

thanks - I had some mapping friends proof read it for me and took their suggestions on board.

nice to see someone else picking up the ball around Melbourne ;)

Artichoke?

get an OSM hiviz vest and wear it while mapping the park, strutting around as though you own the park - and pay security their wages.
they'll spot the hiviz vest and think you're doing something official ;-)

you could probably use whereami or maemo mapper on the n810 for both logging tracks and for seeing what portions of the area are already in OpenStreetMap.

there are probably asset number tags on them too - I'd imagine asset=# ??

If the [in-car] OSM based routing systems worked off [near-]live data then the police could utilise this by marking closed roads (due to accidents or whatever) as such - resulting in having less traffic to 'manually' divert from those accidents.
This may involve a bit of work, but it would surely be worth it.

Regarding your father in law, I think the word you are looking for is "cartographer" ;-)
I'm looking forward to seeing the map of Costa Rica get better!

Not wanting to sound harsh, but...
do we need some type of gibberish to english translator to find out what you're complaining out?

it was :(

for phone number, just tag it as phone=+1414.....

Sorry but I can't help myself: Gort is actually in county Galway - and there's no 'i' in the english name for an Clár. I hope you enjoyed your time over here!
