I have a new obsession: OpenStreetMap. It’s like the perfect open world game where you improve the real world by playing.
You can go outside and play “on the ground”, be the first one to add a new bikeway or fix the opening hours of your favorite bakery. Or you can map from the couch by analyzing aerial images. At https://www.hotosm.org they always need volunteers for some humanitarian mapping. It can be as easy as “spot all the buildings in this image.”

#OpenStreetMap

Oggi è stato un pomeriggio prolifico su #OpenStreetMap. Ho aggiunto delle rampe nella piazza pedonale della città confinante e il routing per gli utenti in sedia a rotelle è migliorato sensibilmente.

Thanks to some very helpful feedback #MastodonNearMe now has its own Web page with a more easily viewed data directory: https://jaz.co.uk/projects/mastodon-near-me/

I'll deprecate the Github page and this will be the new home for the text version going forward.

Last day 2 map for #30DayMapChallenge (lines) is related to this day 1 point map https://en.osm.town/@SK53/111337236337206381.

There has been a lot of interest within #OpenStreetMap about the best way to map hydrological networks and particularly if continuity should be kept through lakes.

The map shows progressive stages of pruning a straight skeleton of a couple of lakes retaining lines linked to outflows.

PS. I've played with these before sk53-osm.blogspot.com/2016/10/skeletons-in-water.html
