OpenStreetMap

Resumee of my first weeks

Posted by Pixel83 on 6 June 2008 in English.

Now that I've been working on OSM for a few weeks it's time to make my first diary entry.
I mainly added some streets "framing" the town where I live and started detailed mapping on some parts of it.
The osmarender last week was a reminder to me to set street types... ouch, typical beginner's fault...
I hope this will be fixed next week, until then I might even be able to add some more residential roads and the outline of the rest of the town.
Only the current fuel prices (around 1.50 Euros per litre here in germany (or 62 us-cent per gallon)) keep me from adding some villages that are not even mentioned on the map...

wow, i think your math is off. 62 cents a gallon would be a fantasy.
were around $4.30 a gallon here, and its supposedly far below what it is in europe

your 1 liter would equal $10.73 per gallon with the current poopy exchange rate

Whoops, you're right...
As we say, "A wish was the thought's father." ;-)
Thanks for the correction.
