[talk-au] OSM spotted on ABC's Catalyst 24.05.2012

Hi all,

Was just watching Catalyst on ABC1 tonight and was pleasantly surprised
to see OSM being used to show where many earth quakes in New Zealand
have been.
It should pop up here on the vodcast list sometime soon, in case you
missed it: http://www.abc.net.au/catalyst/vodcast/default.htm

The screenshots are of Lyttelton and Christchurch in New Zealand.
Lyttelton:

Christchurch:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-43.541&lon=172.6706&zoom=13&layers=M

It appears they're using http://www.geonet.org.nz/ which seems to use
google maps now.
I'm not sure if geonet has changed since this slot was filmed, or if the
internal / external site looks different.
But in the catalyst episode it's openstreetmap with open layers
allright.

Screenshots can be found here:

Aside, I'll be heading up to south-west sydney soon for a short period,
and when time permits I'll be cleaning it up a bit, as well as removing
and
re-tracing non compliant data :)

Cheers,
Cam.
