I also found OSM around 10 years ago. I added my entire village from barely existing on the map to all landuse and small roads, bike paths, things. And this was before there was good enough aerial images, so I had to use GPS and walk/bike all the roads, walk around all the fields and areas.
It was great!
Then came satellite pics and I could add buildings too. But I miss that outdoorsy feeling. I keep my eyes on new buildings and developments in the city I live in now. Do you know of any best practices for local surveying to ensure up to date map quality?
