Goals
If you have a goal that you are working towards or one that you would like to see get done (and are maybe willing to get the ball rolling) then add it to the list here, create a section where it can be coordinated and tracked, and a way of measuring progress. And then get on with it :-)
- Gaborone - Map the capital city
- having at least some highway road data...
Sources
- Fortunately, even the lowres Yahoo imagery gives at least some hints about the rivers, mayor roads and city outlines.
- A good datasource might be GEOnet Names Server and the VMAP0 maps. The later is probably unnecessary since its accuracy isn't very good and at least some of the overland routes are allready there.
- I found several public domain maps in wikipedia:
