This weekend I'm going to Darwin (plane, car not fixed yet) and that city has a lot of streets done by Yahoo, no names, not much detail. So on foot, should I be photographing all the street signs or walking up and down every street trying to get a GPS trace? My main technical interest is whether the work in Darwin requires redoing as there has not been an adequate georeferencing of the photogrammetry. (for you lot - are the streets in the right place on the ground or are we several hundred metres out overall) I can't see a problem with anyone adding from any source PROVIDED it is IDENTIFIED How else will we get Darwin mapped? _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk-au
