| Post | When | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| First entry | over 2 years ago | I recognise the name :) You should hop on the Irish OSM telegram group and connect with more mappers from Ireland. I’ll send you the link |
| Completing Copmanthorpe | over 2 years ago | Thats cool The flight sim guys are going to love you |
| Community is hard | about 3 years ago | Do what I did, ignore it all except for local meetups and OSM weekly news. The rest is just noise. |
| uMap: from user to noob contributor | about 3 years ago | Fantastic work |
| Quick update on Maxar imagery | about 3 years ago | Kevin, thank you for that, it’s really appreciated |
| Quick update on Maxar imagery | about 3 years ago | Thats fantastic news, thank you! Any info on this imagery for Josm and others? |
| Quick update on Maxar imagery | about 3 years ago | Hi kevin, I understand the issue and that its being worked on. Given the time of year I don’t expect a quick resolution but would you have any idea of an ETA for a fix? |
| Too bad I don't have a camera rig | almost 4 years ago | Change the gpx colour to black, turn off imagery, set background to white Hey presto, a neat little piece of art that you made yourself through mile’s and miles of “painting” the lines |
| Notes in iD have arrived | over 4 years ago | This is great work In terms of making them more useful, I know the Irish OSM community utilised the feed from Pascal’s site to have new notes pop up in the IRC chatroom so they uswed to be actioned fairly rapidly. Not so much these days as the IRC chat is not as busy as it once was |
| Holiday reflections on OpenStreetMap | about 5 years ago | Ah, forgot one, the weekly news one, I now use that for keeping up to date with OSM and ignore everything else |
| Holiday reflections on OpenStreetMap | about 5 years ago | “We don’t know if these people are enjoying or recoiling from these discussions, or totally ignoring them.” recoiling/ignoring would be my guess I gave up keeping up with the mailing lists a year ago but stayed subscribed. One day recently I went back and started reading. I got through 2 months worth before I gave up. The high volume lists are, by and large, toxic As a result, I’ve unsubscribed from every single one, bar my local one |
| A year of edits with OSM Streak | over 5 years ago | This is excellent! |
| Approaching 1 million opening hours | over 5 years ago | It would be interesting to line up the release date of streetcomplete & maps.me with this to see if there has been a spike due to either app |
| Updating Blarney... | almost 6 years ago | Fair play (from Galway) |
| The OSM website now has a context menu (right-click menu)! | about 6 years ago | Nice work! |
| “Mum. There’s an Old Man at the Door” | almost 7 years ago | Ha, gave me a chuckle. |
| GSoC Diary 1 | almost 7 years ago | These are fantastic updates. Really useful, thank you! |
| Mapper in the Spotlight: Pete Masters (Scotland) | almost 7 years ago | Another great interview, thanks escada |
| Your OpenStreetMap Story | almost 7 years ago | Ha! That is cool |
| Easily map individual parking spaces using the terracer plugin in JOSM | about 7 years ago | not dismissing your work, but I think my way is easier and a lot more in line with the norm Map the whole parking area as amenity=parking Thats it. 1 polygon/closed way If I know the info, I will add capacity, operator etc I’m not sure I see any benefit in mapping spaces to this level of detail (and I’m a lover of micromapping) One major downside is the visual clutter it would create due to the amount of Parking icons appearing on the map |
