Well, there's a loophole in that provision.
If what you get from the government is *pure data* (numerical coordinates,
etc.), then you can't use it in OSM without permission. This is the idea
behind the DepEd and DOH data we are getting/trying to get.
On the other hand, if what you get is an imag
Dear all,
Just to update you on this. Upon random checking of some tiles, there are
cases where the location is too far off. It was confirmed by Liana that in
some cases, brgy boundary centroid was used when no actual gps survey was
conducted.
I will try to cleanup the data before we begin the im

Hi Maning,
I have a two week old etrex 20 and a Legend hcx. I know you were asking for
the 30, but the only difference is the absence of the atmospheric barometer
