Out and about in the outdoors quite a bit, mostly in the UK, but Europe features from time to time too.

By road-bike on quieter roads here in Eryri, on foot in the mountains and on the West Coast of Scotland by sea-kayak.

GPS comes along most of the time too. I enjoy correcting OSM paths, minor roads and junctions. Often I find these junctions between say a footpath and a road are either missing or in the wrong place, which does affect routing apps etc. Nice to add historic places names and buildings from time to time as well.

The GPS I use while walking currently is the Garmin Fenix 7X Solar. Recently updated, it’s now multi-satellite enabled and very accurate compared to the 6X I used to use. Much easier to carry than my GPSMAP 67 or the Montana 700.

I still get a bit of a thrill when my edits appear some time later in the commercial map updates on my GPS. I use TalkyToaster maps for the UK and these are updated weekly, usually on Friday evening, so maps are current for weekend activities, so I am told.

Best practical tool for editing out and about I’ve found so far is the iOS app ‘Go Map!!’. It will edit easily all OSM features, even out in the field, there and then. Or it can import GPX tracks (Traces) when back at base and then update the feature needing attention. Many summits in Scotland are not quite in the right place on OSM, so it’s nice to fix these while stood next to them.
