<p dir="ltr">Would be great to participate in that convo.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Have being doing a lot of HOT stuff with Haiyan, and that has generated a lot of possibilities for what I do during work hours (property industry) - custom tiles, how quickly satellite data was acquired, use of the task manager.</p>
<p dir="ltr">While my work interests are more on land than routing, would be neat to see what can be useful to them. </p>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word">Hi,<div><br></div><div>I met this afternoon with Garth Walker from the SA Government DPTI who’s using OpenStreetMap data with OpenJourneyPlanner for public transport journey planning on <a href="http://Adelaidemetro.com.au" target="_blank">Adelaidemetro.com.au</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>One thing that came up early on was a lot of footpaths crossing but not meeting highways giving them and their users issues, e.g. from KeepRight</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.keepright.at/report_map.php?zoom=13&lat=-34.91529&lon=138.52762&layers=B0T&ch=0%2C191%2C192%2C193%2C194%2C195%2C196%2C197%2C198&show_ign=1&show_tmpign=1" target="_blank">http://www.keepright.at/report_map.php?zoom=13&lat=-34.91529&lon=138.52762&layers=B0T&ch=0%2C191%2C192%2C193%2C194%2C195%2C196%2C197%2C198&show_ign=1&show_tmpign=1</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>If anyone is feeling like some armchair mapping here it would be most appreciated.</div><div><br></div><div>One question I tried to answer for Garth is how could his area help OpenStreetMap locally. I had a couple of ideas:</div>
<div>* A loan drone that I saw elsewhere today that can get images and integrates into OpenStreetMap and seems practical, (at least in France) for mapping areas without imagery quickly from 120m</div><div>* A Friday afternoon meeting for them to show us how they use OpenStreetMap</div>
<div>* Release of Survey Marks in SA for georeferencing</div><div><br></div><div>Are there any more ideas?</div><div><br></div><div>It was really helpful for me to find someone putting all of our hard work to good use in a public way.</div>
