The aim of OSM is to map the physical world. As long as it's
physical & static, you can map it. Add whatever interests you.
Remember there are numerous renderings of the OSM database
concentrating on different, specific subjects.<br>

If you wish to concentrate on one specific aspect, you may wish ot

<div>Hi All,<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I do make my little contribution to the effort of OSM.
Recently I added some data to Mapillary and consider adding more
(for the use of other mappers).<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After reading someone's OSM profile I started to think and
now have some doubts... We (mappers) are concentrating on
various areas of the map. Some are dedicated to buildings, some
to geographical features others add businesses etc. Can someone
explain what is the aim of OSM, are we trying to build a map
better than Bing and Google (in towns and cities) or are we
planning to create a useful tool for tourists (with paths,
places of interests)?<br>

<div>What is the aim of OSM, what should we concentrate on? <br>
</div>
<div>Should we map roads for sat-nav or buildings for urban area
accuracy? Paths and tourists attractions or schools and electric
cars charging points?<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>many thanks,<br>
