Definitely value. Use a GPS tracking app, then upload your tracks to openstreetmap.org. Then use an OpenStreetMap editor to trace over the tracks and draw in any roads or trails that are missing.

Definately export your tracks to GPX, and upload them to OpenStreetMap: osm.org/user/whison/traces
But the most important thing is to remember interesting stuff while you drive by: * how is this street called, * there is a pub at that corner * A bakery over there * …
And when you get home, you can place those on the map.

And the best way to remember those details is to take a photo :) See also osm.wiki/Beginners’_guide
