[Talk-GB] Scouts Mapping in Central Scotland
Hi All, I was speaking to someone involved with the Scout Network in Scotland, which is an organisation for ex-Scouts aged 18-25. He suggests a joint mapping weekend/party somewhere in Central Scotland between the Scouts and some OSM contributers. With some of us to give a talk on the project and a demo of how to go about mapping/editing. (They have there own supply of GPS) A brief discussion suggests that this might be better based at a larger town which is pretty blank on the map, rather than in Glasgow/Edinburgh - which for the most part - have their centers mapped quite well now. Falkirk came up as a possibility but anywhere central could work out. I understand they have access to accommodation for themselves in quite a few places - not sure of the exact details of this though. Any Glasgow/Edinburgh/Central Scotland people interested in this? -- Callum ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk-gb
[Talk-GB] Freemap down
Apologies to the rest of the list, but I can't find any other way to contact Nick Whitelegg to let him know that free-map.org.uk appears to be down - I get a Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.free-map.org.uk. error when trying to view the main page, and my RSS reader can't get the RSS feed.

Re: [Talk-GB] Mappers in Cornwall, Devon, Dorset and Somerset

Probably not the best choices in terms of OSM coverage. I wanted to start off by asking around to find out if anyone is mapping in those areas. As I'm in Merseyside it's unlikely I'll be doing any mapping in-situ, if there's no-one else to help I'll probably end up using NPE maps to finish it off. I've done some work in Somerset when visiting my parents, both in the immediate area and primary/secondary roads around them including some NPE tracing. The overlaps a bit into Devon and Dorset as well as they're quite close to the edge of Somerset.
