  1. #MappyMonday with some big news to share: After discussing with Wille Marcel, creator of #OSMCha, and Martijn van Exel, creator of #MapRoulette, we decided to move OSMCha and MapRoulette from Charter Projects to OSM US Programs. This transition enables OSM US to allocate a portion of our main budget to support the maintenance and development of both projects.

  3. Our #OSMCha instance makes it easy to inspect large changesets for subtle changes. Sometimes, those changes look very wrong, but only because modern aerial imagery doesn’t line up with the historical features being mapped.

    Now you can visualize changesets against existing #OpenHistoricalMap coverage to see how it all fits into the map we’re building. Click the 🗺️ button to set the basemap back to #Mapbox or #BingMaps imagery like before.
