holy. shit. this. fucking. data. 2023. hello.

The Chief Directorate: National Geo-spatial Information has over the last 5 years captured high resolution aerial photos (25cm/pixel) of the whole of South Africa. We've recently received a copy and will soon make the photos available to mappers. 🇿🇦📷 community.openstreetmap.org/t/new-25cm-aer…

New South African 25cm resolution aerial imagery? Yes please! Work in Progress: community.openstreetmap.org/t/new-25cm-aer…

@alan_zimm every-door.app is available for iPhone/IOS and Android phones. It is a focused app for mapping POIs, addresses, etc. #geocaching addictive We'll make a 🇿🇦 video in a few days demonstrating it, until then this is a good intro video: youtube.com/watch?v=oQao9K…

@OpenStreetMapZA how does everydoor.app compare to StreetComplete app? IOS support?

We're trying something a little different to reach new mappers. We are running a sponsored twitter $ promotion to reach new mappers using this tweet: twitter.com/OpenStreetMapZ… Is there something else we should try?

Noticed something missing in #OpenStreetMap? Use every-door.app to add it directly to the map from your cellphone. 🇿🇦❤️🗺️📱 #ios #android
