<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Mark</div><div><br></div><div>You have a great project to undertake. It's unlikely I'll have the time to do a workshop- even a brief one (and I suspect there will be no others either as we're all volunteers) but the resources I've indicated below should be a good guide. You know OpenStreetMap already so these resources should be sufficient for you and there's nothing that can beat learning by doing! If you have any questions or problems that crop up then email the local talk list but frankly there's more activity on the national talk-gb list and you're more likely to get a rapid response there</div><div><br></div><div>Happy Mapping</div><div><br></div><div>Brian<br></div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://welcome.openstreetmap.org/why-openstreetmap/">Why OpenStreetMap?</a> is a great and brief introduction <br></div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:wheelchair">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:wheelchair</a> is a good place to start for how to map wheelchair access</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wheelmap">Wheelmap</a> is good app for showing whether establishments have wheelchair accessibility</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wheelchair_routing">Wheelchair routing</a> is a German project but has a wealth of information on highway attributes to survey and how to map them (in English)</div><div><br></div><div>If you only want to map dropped kerbs/ tactile paving then <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:kerb">this page</a> is a good guide<br></div><div><br></div><div>There are a variety of mobile apps to assist in mapping but I find them clumsy and slow to use and for beginners it could get overwhelming.
