Just added 10km to the Hereford Trail mapping in #OpenStreetMap. Still have 160km missing. Met a volunteer from Herefordshire @RamblersGB helping to keep the signage maintained. :-) Here's our map: https://t.co/x0iPubdVDA

Brian Prangle of @mappamercia on how they update the map on the same day something changes in the region #openstreetmap #openmapping

@Warwickshire_CC We have updated @OpenStreetMap with the new limits - those who use apps like @MAPS_ME (which uses #OpenStreetMap) will see the updates soon. 🐱

@harry_wood @harry_wood I hope you've proper ventilation (don't want CO poisoning!). That's sleepyness though not burning (I think).

A cheery little spot shown on an old Ordnance Survey #map, seeing as it's #InternationalDayOfHappiness ...

#MapSwipe helps @TheMissingMaps identify unmapped lands. All it takes is swiping through some satellite pictures!

@pigsonthewing @dadge Yep the default map style is for OSM contributors so showing inconsistent mapping helps encourage people to map more.

[Mappa Mercia @mappamercia]

@dadge The green is individually mapped residential gardens. Unusual to get this level of detail but occurs in a few other places too.

We will be at the OSM UK meeting in Birmingham today. Come join us to say hi & plan the next stage of OSM in the UK https://t.co/nxQAtOz0WL

[Mappa Mercia @mappamercia]

@dadge No dispute. OSM is a volunteer/wiki project. Some areas will always be mapped in more detail than others unless we can get more help!

[Mappa Mercia @mappamercia]

We are in Birmingham again this Thursday. Join us for #OpenStreetMap chatter https://t.co/sj8BaDFZ23
