This page contains information relating to mapping activity that is specific to France. Please keep the French version as much as possible the same as this one
Contents |
Goals
- Trace the last end of the A75 after the junction of the N109 to Beziers.
- Check every Route National because after the declassification many route nationals became route departementales. Any Route National which have been declassified should keep the tag highway=primary

Big cities (place=city)
Retrouvez sur cette page Big cities (More than 100.000 citizens) in France, which have there own page on this wiki. When you would like to create a page for your own city, don't hesitate to look at the existing pages, to use these as template "{{place}}" and add this tag "[[Category:City in France]]" to the bottom of the page, to ensure that your city will be listed in the list mentioned in the beginning.
Coastlines
At the start of Openstreetmap project there were no coastlines. They were imported from public domain licensed data from the NGA. The direction of the way indicates where you will find the land, the land should always be to the left. An server is checking the data every two days for gaps in the coastlines, http://tile.openstreetmap.nl/coastlines.html, and will indicate error with red colour. The NGA data is not very accurate, so don't hesitate to improve the quality of this coastline. Just make sure the land always stays to the left and that the coastlines are always connected to each other. Note: Mapnik uses shapefiles from the coastline checker and is updated once a week and Osmarender is using the coastline server as it is on the server directly
Mapping parties
Fairly often, we organize meetings that are aimed at mapping a city or an specific area: we call those "mapping parties".
A wiki page presents the list of past and upcoming mapping parties.
