@bluestarfish I'll see if I can join, and maybe get help to map buildings in Chiswick as my whole neighbourhood is just *empty*.

And I'm not super comfortable with the satellite imagery as Bing's seems to be quite outdated :-/

@Girgias incidentally, 1) thanks for fixing so many of the notes I added to the map, you must be bored of "Ealing council say there should be a Sheffield Stand here" 2) if there's a big empty gap on the map, you know what you need to do 😉
I added my street. Then the neighbourhood. Then I had to draw a line somewhere and decided to stop at the North Circular. Wynndale (is he on Bluesky?) seems to be filling in the gaps south of the river.

@milh0use I quite enjoy it actually, and I've been adding a bunch of notes myself! It also gets me out of my flat and get some fresh air! 😁

Currently focusing on adding all the crossings and EV charge stations I find on my walks and update the opening times.

But must say Ealing has been adding quite a few EV charge points where I lobe in the last few months.

@Girgias the crossings you're adding keep coming up on the OSMCha feed I set up! Pedestrian routing FTW!
I did get as far as starting a bulk import wiki page for car charging as I contacted the suppliers for permission to use their data and also worked out how to scrape the data, but stumbled on the risk that they might have created the geo references using a Google geocoder.

@Girgias it would be great to just get a feed of georeferences to add to OSM.

@Girgias I presume you've seen this OSM based game?
