<div dir="ltr">Hi Richard - <div><br></div><div>Thanks for reaching out! Love the blog!</div><div><br></div><div>I'm a little out of the loop these days, as my full time gig has been taking up more of my time, and I think the <a href="http://openhistoricalmap.org">openhistoricalmap.org</a> is down right now, but here's what I'd suggest:</div>
<div>- Download the local area from OSM using JOSM (this might be possible with iD, but I'm not sure about using that for the next steps)</div><div>- Save the file locally as an .osm</div><div>- Add whatever georectified maps you need that show the old Bunker Hill area</div>
<div>- Save those changes also as an .osm file</div><div><br></div><div>Then... with not too much trickery, you should be able to load this into OHM when it's up and running again.</div><div><br></div><div>This is the same workflow that I was using to work on Seattle from an old perspective map.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I hope this helps. I've also cc'd the alias to see if anyone else has any other suggestions.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Jeff</div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br>

<div dir="ltr">Jeff:<div><br></div><div>We have a nice little history blog here in Los Angeles about old Bunker Hill:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://onbunkerhill.org" target="_blank">http://onbunkerhill.org</a></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>And I am wondering if there is anyway to input historical data yet in OSM?</div><div><br></div><div>I am particularly thinking that some of our contributors might go to an OSM mapping festival at USC on the 26th and start to map old Bunker Hill, if the framework and tools existed.</div>
