OpenStreetMap 開放街圖
To my great delight, my girlfriend started mapping. In her case, that amounts to tracing missing roads and houses in backwoods villages (and bitching about overlapping CLC polygons) - she refuses to touch anything more complicated so far, in case she breaks it. The other day she commented how tracing stuff helps her relax a lot. I’d never thought about it that way but it kind of makes sense, I guess it’s similar to the adult colouring books that have been so popular lately.
Has anybody looked into this? Would it make sense to promote/teach OSM in places like nursing homes, hospitals, prisons etc., generally in places where people would appreciate an uncomplicated, quasi-creative activity to calm their nerves, keep their brains occupied or just kill time?

I find walking and surveying are even more relaxing, sometimes the aerial is out of date so it is safer to go and look first. I agree with your girlfriend polygons with shared nodes are a real pain. Happy mapping

If the changes I just made stop hundreds of people wasting their time driving down a dead end I’ll be happy. I notified Google maps and the two suppliers of maps for all the GPS systems several years ago but new GPS still has 20 yr out of date information. Wifes new car with Magellan still hasn’t got things right, even after ‘dealer update’

1crazypj, Hi, sorry to say your changes will not work. I’ll put comments on the changeset. Regards.
Strangely for me the therapy is in fixing problems, there’s great satisfaction in helping folk.

I like all sorts of mapping, and I recognise what you’re talking about here. I too find it easy and relaxing to do certain kinds of mapping like that. You have to think, but not too hard. It’s like knitting.

Or teach the computer to recognise traffic signs.

When I’m tracing stuff the hours fly by, so it’s certainly a good way to spend time. Plus the satisfaction that your contributions will help others save time and frustration when travelling and allow for research on geographic features.

Nowadays I just tag objects in pictures.
This way I am not bothered with wisenoses correcting my work and other half work.
