> Do you remember how you first heard of OSM, or first got mapping? March 2008... not sure how I heard about OSM, I think it was through something geocache related, maybe a post by someone. I went to the OpenStreetMap website signed up and started adding roads in my neighborhood. I went out and drove every road in my neighborhood, came back uploaded the track from my GPS, and got after it. First GPS trace upload March 3,2008. http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/VE6SRV/traces/80805 Found the wiki and created a page for Strathcona County a couple days in... still waiting for anyone to find the page and join in on mapping the area though. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Canada:Alberta:Strathcona_County There's a bit of a difference in the map from when I started! There are a couple map captures on the page. Without the CanVec data, the map would still be looking pretty bleak! -- James VE6SRV _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
