Reminder: Let's contribute to OpenStreetMap!
(lemmy.ml)
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've also started using this on my walks. My town has thousands of information points missing but I'm slowly starting to make a dent!
Another fun way to contribute that I'd give a call out to is map roulette: https://maproulette.org/ , this one has lists of easy tasks you can do typically without being in person to fix up issues.
