I just surpassed last year's 113 #OpenStreetMap days of mapping. In 2014, I had a total of 122 mapping days. Given that it's still August, I'm confident that this year will be a new record for me. Apps like @streetcomplete certainly help, as does the fact that I'm working on a research project that uses local OSM data.
OpenStreetMap.org doesn’t have a cookie notice because we do not track people. #openstreetmap

Fin d'après-midi consacrée à contribuer à @osm_fr avec l'application @streetcomplete.
C'est incroyable comme on découvre la #ville différemment. Un quartier historique et patrimonial juste à côté de là où j'habite (#QuartierLouvois) à #Grenoble, un nouveau #graffiti sur le mur d'une maison et... une discussion avec un enfant, probablement angoissé par la rentrée scolaire, qui me demande si je suis la prof de CP :-)
Fixed the search for swimming pools.
Sometimes volunteers tag stuff differently in OSM, which can be very difficult to work with when you search.
And if the third party offering the data for your map then converts that data in their own way, then things can get even more spaghetti.
Anyways, done for the weekend. Should be working fine.
Important task in the week your kid starts daycare for the first time: add the location to OpenStreetMap, so you can find it in the public transport journey planner next week. One less thing to panic about.

There's less than 3 days to propose a session for #sotmeu25
The tracks with least submissions are "Map Progress" and "Community & Vision" but all tracks are still open.
Know someone that could give an awesome #OpenStreetMap talk or chair a discussion? Send them a message, tag them in a reply!

FYI - The Connecticut Trail Symposium is calling for presentations and sponsorships and they have extended their request for proposals out to September 3rd.
These two items stand out.
1. Mapping and technology that can support breaking down barriers of entry, enhance accessibility
2. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion - breaking down barriers to trail access and use.
Y a des gens qui s'y connaissent en #OpenStreetMap #OSM ici ?
StreetComplete me demande de renseigner sur une caméra de surveillance, je me dis chouette, c'est une info utile. Mais sur le site OSM, je ne trouve pas comment visualiser toutes les caméras d'un territoire. Comment qu'on fait ?
Er du i #Aalborg lørdag 30. august?
Det er lykkes at stable et OSM Aalborg meetup på benene
Hvor folk der er interesseret i #openstreetmap kan møde op eller hvis du har spørgsmål hvordan man evt. bliver OSM DK frivillig og kommer i gang med kortlægning

I spent ages refactoring #WaterwayMapOrg code to produce debugging data to try to track down why WWM had the Missouri & Mississippi rivers separated by a weird fake river.
Turns out there was a loop in #OpenStreetMap Data.
Fix the input data, you fix the output data.
Only a few days left to offer to host State of the Map 2026, the premier global OpenStreetMap annual conference!
Why not bring the OpenStreetMap community to your city!
The Call for Venues closes soon!

Do you actively use #OpenStreetMap? Yes? Great!
Do you support OpenStreetMap? By active editing? Cool.
Did you know you can become a paying member and support other activities with your contribution?
I just renewed my membership. You can do so, too.
@oldmapgallery What do you think about https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=2/-5.4/35.2 It uses Mercator maps. Should it be changed, too, or is it OK for this purpose?
#openstreetmap
And I've not looked at this beyond seeing that it exists...
