黙々

自宅近所のPOIや建物を隙間時間を使ってだいぶ追加しました。 ただここからどうしようかなとも思い始めています。建物の高さとか道路の幅とか測って入れるべき?あんまり使われないのも面白くないので、入れる意味があるのか分からず。

I’ve added many POIs and building near where I live. But I don’t know what to do next. Should I measure the height of buildings and the width of roads to have my neighborhood’s data more concise and completed? I wonder how much it makes sense if I do that.

Mapping while taking a walk.

Posted by Biebie_matsu on 29 September 2021 in English.

I’ve worked at home for a year and a half amid the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan. These days I’ve gained weight because I seldom walk, so I make it a rule to take some walk in the evening around my neighborhood. It’s good for the OSM community to have its map around the area where I live more minute, but there are some problems. How do I record minute data such as the shape of buildings, and the names of shops and restaurants. I use my iPhone to get GPS tracking data while I’m taking a walk, but they don’t have enough information. I wonder how others acquire the enough data for drawing some buildings and identifying the point of interests.
