I go walking several times each week sometimes with a Ramblers group, sometimes alone. The Ramblers are a UK walking club that was formed over eighty years ago. The Ramblers legally campaign to keep countryside paths and tracks open and free to use. I record where I have been with a Garmin Oregon 450. After arriving home I upload the trace as public to OSM. I sometimes view it overlaid on OSM by using GPSprune or Viking, if stuff is missing or seems wrong I will open Potlatch2 and do an edit. Yesterday I set off to join the Peterborough group Ramblers walk but I arrived late and I missed them. I hoped I could track them by guessing the paths they may taken and asking anyone who may have noticed them but it was a dull day and few people were out in the village. I have noticed that many beautiful villages seem deserted during the day even at weekends. I explored a few paths and strained my eyes see if I could pick them out but didn’t see any sign of the group so my walk turned into a survey and I walked several paths that had not been mapped. I only walked about 5km in total but 2km were new to OSM so slight disappointment turned into success in the end. I added several footpaths, a Pub which had a path through it’s back yard, a short road to the school and a drainage ditch. PS Everybody is welcome to try out a few Ramblers walks without payment as long as you can walk the distance and have suitable kit, just turn up. It’s a good way to get some low impact exercise see, explore the countryside and make new friends. There are lots of groups, i have walked with over twenty different groups. A sociable way to survey! Just Google Ramblers for info.
