At the two dutch zoos several buildings were created with WGS84 projection it seems.

Check out bestofosm.org, and tell us if you have any additions! Nice job. Could you CSS-change the cursor to a pointer when hoovering the screenshot thumbnails? I didn't discover the zoom-to feature until I read it in your blog post. Maybe you would like to add the Gaza strip as an example of OSM history [1]. Another example in the works (although for sad reasons) might become Ürümqi, the site of violent clashes in eastern China where Yahoo-traced OSM coverage is growing rapidly within the past hours: http://osm.org/go/z...@wxpmx- The area around Roßleben, Germany serves as a very good example that detailed mapping isn't limited to cities: http://osm.org/go/0MBXm7N Claudius [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Gaza ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Question is do there zoos know about these maps, They seam a lot better than many maps you see when you visit them. I think that something above zoom level 18 may be needed here.
