Help
Users who are ready to help beginners to contribute in Vietnam Mapping Project:
- Contact capiscuas AT gmail.com if you would like to participate and don't know how to start
- GeoGrafiker is a very experienced user from Germany. His motivation to help Vietnam Mapping Project is that he wants to go to Vietnam in November 2009. For this journey he needs the best available OSM maps. Please contact him through OSM mailing system.
Possible data sources
- The U.S. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency has public domain country files with basic information on placenames. Nevertheless, it contains many errors and many towns are missplaced.
- The AsiaGPS forum contains many GPS traces from Vietnam and Asia. Please contact them to encourage them to release their data into OSM.
