Everything #OpenStreetMap related is welcome: software releases, showing of your work, questions about how to tag something, as long as it has to do with OpenStreetMap or OpenStreetMap-related software.

OpenStreetMap is a map of the world, created by people like you and free to use under an open license.

Join OpenStreetMap and start mapping: https://www.openstreetmap.org/.

There are many communication channels about OSM, many organized around a certain country or region. Discover them on https://openstreetmap.community/

https://mapcomplete.org/ is an easy-to-use website to view, edit and add points (such as shops, restaurants and others)

https://learnosm.org/en/ has a lot of information for beginners too.

I thought I’d share this Mastodon bot - @SmallTownUSA - here as I’ve found it great fun.

Posting towns in the USA with a population less than 1000 that are undermapped on OpenStreetMap.org

I quite enjoy mapping areas that have nothing or very little mapped. This bot kind of helps with that. Although, I’d love another one for my home country and current country of residence.
