Australia (WA) - Armchairmappers needed
kerosin erabiltzaileak 15 Martxoa 2011 datan argitaratua English hizkuntzan Azken eguneratzea 27 Martxoa 2011 egunean.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

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

Dundas and Austin looks mapped.
liftarn erabiltzailearen iruzkina 17 Martxoa 2011 09:28-eann
Did Lake Wells.

HokusPokus did Dundas and Austin. Good job!
Still 4 left

first rough outline of Percival Lakes
alexis78 erabiltzailearen iruzkina 17 Martxoa 2011 13:43-eann
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.
liftarn erabiltzailearen iruzkina 18 Martxoa 2011 13:26-eann
Dumbleyung looks done.
liftarn erabiltzailearen iruzkina 18 Martxoa 2011 13:32-eann
Did a rough trace of Disappointment. Very difficult to tell what is land and what is water.
alexis78 erabiltzailearen iruzkina 18 Martxoa 2011 14:44-eann
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.
liftarn erabiltzailearen iruzkina 18 Martxoa 2011 15:55-eann
And a rough trance of Lake Mason. Is it really that small?
liftarn erabiltzailearen iruzkina 18 Martxoa 2011 15:57-eann
Lake Seabrook done (I think).
liftarn erabiltzailearen iruzkina 18 Martxoa 2011 16:01-eann
And Lake Marmion. I think the east side may need some improvement.
Ohr erabiltzailearen iruzkina 18 Martxoa 2011 20:02-eann
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!
liftarn erabiltzailearen iruzkina 21 Martxoa 2011 09:02-eann
Lake Gregory done.
Ohr erabiltzailearen iruzkina 25 Martxoa 2011 20:23-eann
Added Lake Magenta
Ohr erabiltzailearen iruzkina 25 Martxoa 2011 20:37-eann
Also just traced Lake Noondie
Ohr erabiltzailearen iruzkina 26 Martxoa 2011 16:40-eann
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.

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.
