Thanks Ross

 

As a total newbie to this I was advised to use Potlatch as it was seen to be
the easiest.  I understand that JOSM and mercaator(sp?) are more
sophisticated eg do proper roundabouts, but I wanted to graduate first!
Also, I can not load (or view) maps from osm.org for some reason - I have to
download or access OSM maps from other sources.

 

 

In my trials and errors - I tried to tidy up my tracks in Mapsource before
loading (eg the aimless wandering and chatting with others before a walk or
the straight line that sometimes happens when you turn off then turn on the
GPS in a different location without saving the track).  However, i found out
(after I had uploaded and traced) that some were still untidy.  I ended up
deleting a few of my uploads and reuploading.  Lots of work for little
return, particularly in a couple of cases.  Can JOSM and Mercaator do this
type of tidying up? Perhaps I should move in while still wearing my "L"s?

 

Ps what's keepright?
