The aim of OSM is to map the physical world. As long as it's physical &
static, you can map it. Add whatever interests you. Remember there are
numerous renderings of the OSM database concentrating on different,
specific subjects.
If you wish to concentrate on one specific aspect, you may wish ot

Hi All,
I do make my little contribution to the effort of OSM. Recently I
added some data to Mapillary and consider adding more (for the use of
other mappers).
After reading someone's OSM profile I started to think and now have
some doubts... We (mappers) are concentrating on various areas of the
map. Some are dedicated to buildings, some to geographical features
others add businesses etc. Can someone explain what is the aim of OSM,
are we trying to build a map better than Bing and Google (in towns and
cities) or are we planning to create a useful tool for tourists (with
paths, places of interests)?
What is the aim of OSM, what should we concentrate on?
Should we map roads for sat-nav or buildings for urban area accuracy?
Paths and tourists attractions or schools and electric cars charging
points?
many thanks,
