Was your problem not understanding it or was something going wrong? The reason I developed it was so I didn't have to keep stopping when cycling (time and knee damage!), and I use it everytime, so I'd be interested to know what is caused your problem. (I know not all gps make it easy to add waypoints)<br>

I think my last issue was copying the audio from my dictaphone to Linux with unofficial drivers, and keeping the right time on the file (created/modified/accessed, whichever JOSM used).<br>
I'm quite happy with my photo mapping procedure (and I spot things I missed sometimes) but sometimes I go on about my love for it at a mapping party and Andy Robinson brings up audio mapping as being better.<br><br>What ever works for each of us, right?<br>
<br>Back to: What do you wish you'd known?<br>* That OSM has a really low entry but once your addicted you can upgrade at various levels. Cheap bluetooth GPS with a phone and free Java app, then using my camera phone. Now I bought a compact camera mainly for OSM (less stopping needed and I don't have to zoom either) and I've loved my Garmin eTrek for some time. Even before that I suppose we have arm chair mapping or walking papers for free.<br clear="all">
