Hi all, Another update on MapRoulette progress. I am getting ready to retire the old MapRoulette, which is still live on maproulette.org. The new version, which is now at http://maproulette.org:8080/ will move to http://maproulette.org/.
If you are a Challenge author on the old MapRoulette, and you want your challenge to live on, please check out the Challenge creation tutorial[1] and re-create your challenge on the new version. Please let me know if you need help. Some of the latest changes in the recent beta are: * Home page now shows challenges as centroid points * Search enhanced with keywords (see [2] for details) * Challenge authors can make their own Projects visible * Metrics per challenge on Metrics page Still coming (soon): * More improvements to search * Personal settings (base tile layer, default editor and more) * Per-Challenge settings (default zoom level, tile layer, perhaps more) If you want to start creating your own Challenges right away, please see the tutorial[1]. I will also be giving a workshop on how to do this at SOTM US and (hopefully) also at SOTM in Brussels. Some new Challenges that have recently been added by mappers like you: * Look at FIXMEs in Argentina: http://maproulette.org:8080/map/234/ * Add Sidewalks to major roads in San Francisco, USA: http://maproulette.org:8080/map/228/ * Add Helipads to hospitals worldwide: http://maproulette.org:8080/map/227/ Lastly, if you read this on talk@ (sorry for xposting) and are interested in MapRoulette, I recommend to also subscribe to maproule...@openstreetmap.org [1] https://github.com/maproulette/maproulette2/wiki/Introducing-New-MapRoulette---Part-1.-Creating-and-Maintaining-Challenges [2] https://github.com/maproulette/maproulette2/wiki/Introducing-New-MapRoulette-Part-2.-Discovering-MapRoulette-Challenges Martijn van Exel http://mvexel.github.io/
