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

first rough outline of Percival Lakes
由alexis78於2011年3月17日13:43發表的評論
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.
由Hokuspokus於2011年3月18日13:08發表的評論
Lake Cowan has large areas coverd with I guess salt. I think these areas should be seperated.
由liftarn於2011年3月18日13:26發表的評論
Dumbleyung looks done.
由liftarn於2011年3月18日13:32發表的評論
Did a rough trace of Disappointment. Very difficult to tell what is land and what is water.
由alexis78於2011年3月18日14:44發表的評論
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.
由liftarn於2011年3月18日15:55發表的評論
And a rough trance of Lake Mason. Is it really that small?
由liftarn於2011年3月18日15:57發表的評論
Lake Seabrook done (I think).
由liftarn於2011年3月18日16:01發表的評論
And Lake Marmion. I think the east side may need some improvement.
由Ohr於2011年3月18日20:02發表的評論
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.

Good work guys!

Lake Gregory done.
由Ohr於2011年3月25日20:23發表的評論
Added Lake Magenta
由Ohr於2011年3月25日20:37發表的評論
Also just traced Lake Noondie
由Ohr於2011年3月26日16:40發表的評論
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.
由Ohr於2011年3月26日21:42發表的評論
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.
