A long way until we can match the Mastermap level of street detail.</p> <p>I will also link to the cyclesteets talk once it's up. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11270#post-129013 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 15:50:13 +0000 DaveC 129013@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Thanks for posting, I love maps!! :D </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11270#post-129007 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 15:39:38 +0000 cb 129007@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Thanks for posting.</p> <p>Can't see the videos from here but I watched the Martin Lings one last night (assuming it was the one tweeted by @OSMScotland).</p> <p>I was a bit amused that 90% of his talk was backed by a massive OS map.</p> <p>Also his confusion as to why the Mayfield Road bit of route 6 had been left off (although I see that it's on now). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11270#post-128986 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 14:58:27 +0000 chrisfl 128986@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>This talk was by Robert Weetman who is currently working for SUSTRANS signposting the John Muir Way that will run from Dunbar to Helensburgh, as well as some good general stuff on SUSTRANS and especially their relationship to the OpenStreetMap community.</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJ7dbtAvsYI&amp;feature=share&amp;list=UUtajAIYWNqBoEl6Q85fLhJA" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJ7dbtAvsYI&amp;feature=share&amp;list=UUtajAIYWNqBoEl6Q85fLhJA</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11270#post-128813 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 15:48:24 +0000 chrisfl 128813@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Video's are going up...

The conference is free. On Friday we invite outside groups to meet us, On Saturday we show what has been going on with our community and on Sunday we have a hack day.</p> <p>The details are here</p> <p><a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_of_the_Map_Scotland_2013" rel="nofollow">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_of_the_Map_Scotland_2013</a></p> <p>I hope that you can attend</p> <p>Openstreetmap.org is a project similar to Wikipedia except we are making maps of the world. We do this by tracing satellite imagery and getting people to identify places. Anyone can edit the map. You can see our map here</p> <p><a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/55.94890/-3.19043" rel="nofollow">http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/55.94890/-3.19043</a></p> <p>Since it is made from free data we can render it in different ways, like this cycle map</p> <p><a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/55.94890/-3.19043&amp;layers=C" rel="nofollow">http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/55.94890/-3.19043&amp;layers=C</a></p> <p>Or a transport map</p> <p><a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/55.94890/-3.19043&amp;layers=T" rel="nofollow">http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/55.94890/-3.19043&amp;layers=T</a></p> <p>We have been around for about 8 years and have about 1.4 million people signed up. We have been recognised by various aid agencies including the UN</p> <p>We have been used to help with planning for transition towns and sustainable communities</p> <p>" </p>
