Hi! I'm Derick and I am a map geek :-)

I mostly map around Kilburn in London where I live, but also frequent the London mapping parties.

I ran for the Foundation/AGM11/Election_to_Board but didn't get elected.

I blog at http://derickrethans.nl, about PHP, technology and Open Street Map.

Software

I've written some tools to convert sources of discrepancies (the ITO world, OS musical chairs and OSM bugs data sets) to Garmin maps. I'll be contributing some more code to this github repository as well.

Hardware

I collect using pen and paper most of the time, but also use:

Garmin Vista HCx

For collecting GPS traces and also viewing maps and navigating.

Kodak Zi6

For taking pictures and videos of shops.
