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.
liftarn 于 2011年03月17日 09:28 的评论
Did Lake Wells.
kerosin 于 2011年03月17日 09:39 的评论
HokusPokus did Dundas and Austin. Good job!

first rough outline of Percival Lakes
alexis78 于 2011年03月17日 13:43 的评论
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.
Hokuspokus 于 2011年03月18日 13:08 的评论
Lake Cowan has large areas coverd with I guess salt. I think these areas should be seperated.
liftarn 于 2011年03月18日 13:26 的评论
Dumbleyung looks done.
liftarn 于 2011年03月18日 13:32 的评论
Did a rough trace of Disappointment. Very difficult to tell what is land and what is water.
alexis78 于 2011年03月18日 14:44 的评论
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 于 2011年03月18日 15:55 的评论
And a rough trance of Lake Mason. Is it really that small?
liftarn 于 2011年03月18日 15:57 的评论
Lake Seabrook done (I think).
liftarn 于 2011年03月18日 16:01 的评论
And Lake Marmion. I think the east side may need some improvement.
Ohr 于 2011年03月18日 20:02 的评论
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 于 2011年03月21日 09:02 的评论
Lake Gregory done.
Ohr 于 2011年03月25日 20:23 的评论
Added Lake Magenta
Ohr 于 2011年03月25日 20:37 的评论
Also just traced Lake Noondie
Ohr 于 2011年03月26日 16:40 的评论
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.
Ohr 于 2011年03月26日 21:42 的评论
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.
