<p>Oh hi Daniel. I have seen your work on OSM a lot!</p>
<p>I have been walking around taking photos of every store in an
area and collecting any phone numbers or other info I can find on
the store front. I'm still getting the hang of it but I'm getting
a pretty good system for collecting info. Many of the points I
have collected are not even on google maps :)</p>
One interesting thing I have found is many small business websites
are no longer online.<br>

<div>In general, a lot of roads are accurate across the state;
due to <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://data.sa.gov.au">data.sa.gov.au</a>
datasets - names, maybe a little less so. Bus stops... fairly
accurate from a GTFS feed.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Addresses like you've added are great; keep on collecting
'em :) There's a few mobile tools that make it easy to record
data; like Vespucci, if you are wandering around your
neghbourhood.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I find food related businesses really useful when using
openstreetmap data, as well as things like drinking fountains
(surprisingly useful but sparsely mapped!)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>AdelaideMetro's journey planner uses Openstreetmap as a
base layer, so a few of us have worked on major transport
interchanges or shopping centres with a reasonable amount of
detail.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you are going through the CBD; capturing building levels
or building height can be really neat</div>

<div>and finally if you find yourself running out of stuff to
map; consider data collection via Mapillary or OpenStreetView.</div>

I just found out about the open street map project and love
the idea. So far I have just been tracing buildings from the
bing satellite images and adding info to locations. Here is
some of my work <a moz-do-not-send="true"

Username is Qwertii. What I was looking to find out is what
should I get started with and where would I best be spending
my time? I don't want to spent ages drawing out things that
could just be done with a simple script. What things should
I work on? Are there any pages I should read as a new user?<br>
<br>
Any advice would be awesome.<br>
<br>
