OpenStreetMap
Australia (WA) - Armchairmappers needed
Parašė kerosin, laikas 2011 03 15, kalba English. Paskutinį kartą atnaujinta 2011 03 27.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.
Naudotojo liftarn komentaras, parašytas 2011 m. kovo 17 d., 09:28
Did Lake Wells.

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

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