I’m a person in the South of England, living in/around Basingstoke.
I try to use public transport or cycling when possible.
My pronouns are she/her.
How/Why do I use OSM?
I mainly use OSM for navigation,
I also use OSM for finding out about my surroundings,
I like to edit whilst out and about with StreetComplete, but use iD for more complicated/complex editing. I am currently learning JOSM and seeing if it’s right for me.
My Mapping Interests
Ways (Roads, Paths, etc)
Adding cycle infrastructure,
Road surface (I don’t particularly like bad surfaces, so I like to help others with this),
Lighting (something that some people really like, including me, for safety),
Number of lanes,
Nodes (including buildings)
Seperating out buildings to avoid ambiguity,
Adding addresses (I feel that this is a major downside of using OSM in a lot of places, so I want to fix that),
Miscellaneous
I really like to include anything accessibility related (tactile paving, surface, etc),
Again, I like to try and include lighting in roads/paths,
I want to add to this publicly avaliable resource, free for others, because of what it is.
