Snowy mapping in Bristol

Posted by Harry Wood on 11 January 2010 in English.

The Bristol map looks pretty nice. I think the landuse coverage has been done quite thoroughly, which makes it pleasing on the eye. I imagined it to be quite complete, but it turned out my mate's road was missing. Well not any more! Yesterday I had a nice little snowy stroll around this neighbourhood, but not before building the OSMer snowman:

He's demonstrating the use of a NaviGPS. When you're walking down one side of a street near buildings, it can help if you hold it to one side like this :-)

Still quite a few noname streets in Bristol actually. Pretty landuse coverage can be deceptive.

Londoners, don't forget pub tomorrow night. The sign-up on upcoming.org is pretty poor so far, but I know you're all just being non-committal.
