More recently I find myself addicted to OSM once more after a long hiatus. I guess working in the civil road design space has me interested in capturing features around the streets such as crossings, sidewalks, street furniture and recreation spaces.

I’m shocked by the number of sidewalks I have found that cross a street not as a crossing. I’m fixing these as I find them.

My end goal is to try and resolve as many items from StreetComplete as I can around where I live and work, adding to the accuracy of the overall map model locally.

I have only just recently discovered OpenStreetMap’s existence, and have since been hooked on it. Now, driving around my home town I see a street, car park or other feature and wonder: Is that on OpenStreetMap?

My favourite edits so far have been entering in my schools that I attended as a child and I’m unsure why exactly, but I love entering parking aisles into all my local car parks.

My current goal is to confirm that every street in Launceston, Tasmania has the correct street name and category; and have the majority of residential buildings entered on the map. Which I understand is a huge undertaking, which is why I wouldn’t mind seeing some users making the adventure to little old Tasmania, Australia; especially Launceston :D

Happy mapping everyone!! :D
