Hi Steven Le Roux

Beside this great POI informations we should use any good source for 
improving maps here.

Also tracks in the middle of the desert are useful, these are the only 
roads for the locals (and travellers) there. Combining the precision of 
this tracks with the description out-of-copyright maps would give a big 
improvement, see here (wait a bit, map tiles are served by 600 kbit/s):

http://integrate.ch/app/openlayers.html?lat=33.2348&lon=-3.03442&zoom=9&trackfiles=tracks%2Ftrace_debdou_anoual.gpx&layers=B0000000TFFFT

(Clicking once on the map would bring you direct to potlatch with that 
layer as background)

Think also to locals which probably could tag this mapped roads properly 
(in case of an internet connection) but not not map it because of the 
lack of a GPS device.

BTW: Sorry for the spanish <> portuguese mismatch!

Thanks for volunteer.

Martin
