OpenStreetMap
Australia (WA) - Armchairmappers needed
Postitas kerosin kuupäeval 15. märts 2011 – English. Viimati uuendatud: 27. märts 2011.Hey Guys,
Just noticed there are a lot of big lakes in Australia that are not mapped although Bing imagery is available. So I'm asking Armchair-Mappers to help mapping them :)
If you're working on one of the lakes please leave a comment! Thanks

Cheers

Great idea!
I've had a crack at Lake Cowan.

Dundas and Austin looks mapped.
Kommentaar kasutajalt liftarn 17. märts 2011, kell 09:28
Did Lake Wells.
Kommentaar kasutajalt kerosin 17. märts 2011, kell 09:39
HokusPokus did Dundas and Austin. Good job!
Still 4 left

first rough outline of Percival Lakes
Kommentaar kasutajalt alexis78 17. märts 2011, kell 13:43
Percival : trying to draw a finer outline from Bing images. From high up, this seems to be a shallow lake and mostly sand banks, making it hard to tell where the land ends and the water starts... so the outline remains somewhat approximative.

Lake Cowan has large areas coverd with I guess salt. I think these areas should be seperated.
Kommentaar kasutajalt liftarn 18. märts 2011, kell 13:26
Dumbleyung looks done.
Kommentaar kasutajalt liftarn 18. märts 2011, kell 13:32
Did a rough trace of Disappointment. Very difficult to tell what is land and what is water.
Kommentaar kasutajalt alexis78 18. märts 2011, kell 14:44
I've gone as far as I can, given the sat image quality, my patience and my total lack of understanding of the area I'm tracing... So, regarding Percival Lakes : all major bodies of water I could see from bing, the major islands inside them are done. Not always / not everywhere with a high level of detail, but curvy enough to follow the land (?) and look natural(-ish).
This was, to me, an exercise in something different, and a kind of exotism by proxy (I'm nowhere near Australia, and won't be able to visit in the foreseeable future). I'll go back to my own area now. Everyone is welcome to pick up from where I left and enhance what I started.
Cheers, everyone !

Did Lake Tay.
Kommentaar kasutajalt liftarn 18. märts 2011, kell 15:55
And a rough trance of Lake Mason. Is it really that small?
Kommentaar kasutajalt liftarn 18. märts 2011, kell 15:57
Lake Seabrook done (I think).
Kommentaar kasutajalt liftarn 18. märts 2011, kell 16:01
And Lake Marmion. I think the east side may need some improvement.
Kommentaar kasutajalt Ohr 18. märts 2011, kell 20:02
Added Lake Barlee - now I know why it was still not done even though it was the first one. Probably didn't catch all islands.
There also seems to be a smaller lake just north which still waits for mapping.

Regarding Lake Mason:

Good work guys!

Lake Gregory done.
Kommentaar kasutajalt Ohr 25. märts 2011, kell 20:23
Added Lake Magenta
Kommentaar kasutajalt Ohr 25. märts 2011, kell 20:37
Also just traced Lake Noondie
Kommentaar kasutajalt Ohr 26. märts 2011, kell 16:40
I've just added Lake Maurice. Also Lake Yindarlgoodo has already been mapped by someone. I've adjusted the tagging so it's now rendered as a lake.
Kommentaar kasutajalt Ohr 26. märts 2011, kell 21:42
Ok, finally also mapped Lake Carnegie, although the eastern part could be more detailed. But the shape is quite weird to draw.

Thanks alot! If you're still interested in armchairmapping in Australia check this out:
osm.wiki/Lakes_of_Western_Australia
There are also pretty small lakes mentioned. Lot's of them haven't been checked.
