Working with hiking routes

Posted by pangoSE on 8 January 2020 in English.

Hi! 😃

Yesterday I worked on hiking routes in Sweden. I wonder how many there are? (“type:relation and route=hiking in sweden” gave me 70 mb of data which is a lot, but actually it would be more useful to measure how many kms of routes there are in comparison to say the area of the country)

I use JOSM and would like to praise and recommend the plugin relationtoolbox. It makes working with relations so much easier.

I probably should make a video about it if nobody beats me to it.

If you want to help you are very welcome, see osm.wiki/WikiProject_Sweden/Hiking_trails

I estimate that it will take me years to map, update and split up in parts as I keep finding missing routes, routes with no source, etc. 😅
