[OSM-talk-ie] Westport

[Paul Cunnane]

I've uploaded several streets and housing estates in Westport. I was
quite astonished to see that I had clocked up 31km (according to the
GPS, I didn't check the car) in doing so. I wasn't able to record street
names - it was a bit of an impromptu surveying session - but I'll
backfill them as I figure them out.

Looking at what I've mapped, and given that I'm pretty confident of the
accuracy having driven each road at least twice, I can't help but be
struck by the difference in accuracy between what I'm surveying and what
I can see on Google maps.

That said, Yahoo maps are a lot better.

A final thought before bedtime: I should be doing this mapping on a
bicycle. 31km would go a long way towards getting me in shape...
