It's okay to make nice curves, but there's no need to overdo it, and use more nodes than really necessary. Your track is probably not really that accurate anyway. > to figure out how to insert some of the more special features > (roundabouts etc.).

It's not even unusual to get 10 meters difference, using the same device, but visiting the road at another time. > be due to external factors.

Please do NOT use this site to compare against Google Maps and then adjust your edits! Edit only from what you have as a track and from what you remember from being on the road. This is very VERY important when making edits, to protect the integrity of the project. > Don't know wether or not I will be able to attend the meeting, but I'll > let you know if I can. I think beginners can really benefit from seeing someone else make edits, and use an editor. I know I could've used that in the very beginning, but I had to find out most by myself. If you're able to attend, that would be great! -- Lennard _______________________________________________ Talk-be mailing list Talk-be@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-be
