this morning, i wanted to find an important manuscript in my archive for work purposes.
Just finished a second pass of my hometown. Redid a lot of my shoddier early mapping and reviewed every TIGER import street. Now working on TIGER review outside of the city and some wetlands mapping for the time being.
Last September I wrote about a concept where instead of hand-listing 15–30 tags on every packaging container, the user could just pick the containers colour and let the editor auto-add the right tags.
Clearance is a free software tool for controlling the quality of OpenStreetMap replication diffs. It tracks thematic and territorial edits to OSM and keeps replication extracts (extracts, diffs, and a local Overpass API) up to date.
In July 2026, I decided to return to OpenStreetMap after nearly four years. This project is more than just mapping for me—it is a personal journey to build a detailed digital representation of my hometown, Taiping. My current focus is the Heritage Zone, where I hope to refine every building footprint and individual block with the best accuracy possible. If you’re a fellow mapper or a Taiping resident, your contributions are always appreciated. Feel free to add shop lot numbers, business names, amenities, or any other local knowledge that helps make the map more complete and useful for everyone.

Not at all my work, but a place to record the work of Akash Wadhwani. They have just written a great piece on OpenStreetMap and the work of volunteers to map in support of disaster response.

Weve got another OSMLondon pub meet-up tonight!. Im trying to be a bit more orginal with pub choices recently, so I picked a place down in Victoria. This is not the end of London I know best, but its good to go South a bit.
For many years it has bugged me that no maps display whether a road is a toll road, whether cycling is forbidden there and whether its surface is made of cobblestone.

Hi to all editors including line 225 user. You just can add the anchor portals without changing power lines in substations to anchor portals.
In February I read a short story, “Mr. Pfeiffer” by Vicky Mlyniec that is set in Percy, Illinois. Curious, I looked up the place on OSM and found it lacking in mapping. I’ve spent the last four months improving it on the map. Today I am done with buildings and other features inside the village limits.

Ive been enriching the OpenStreetMap nodes for a small NC concrete contractor I work with — Local Concrete Contractor. They have 8 office locations across central and western North Carolina. Wanted to document the work so the next mapper has context.
