Background

I joined the OSM community in February 2012. I'm interested in open source / open data in general and sometimes combine contributing to OSM with geocaching. I've also written some software for using / improving OSM data (see below).

By walking planned routes with a GPS and camera, I systematically surveyed lots of footpaths North of Bromyard, capturing as much detail as possible including field boundaries (barrier=hedge or barrier=fence), gates, stiles, prominent trees, etc.

Nowadays I tend to make small occasional edits to things in my local area (Canterbury) or that I notice on my travels.

Food Hygiene OpenStreetMap Tool (FHODOT)

I developed FHODOT to allow mappers to make efficient use of Food Hygiene Rating Scheme data, particularly through interaction with JOSM. More information and the source code is freely available on GitHub.

FHODOT supersedes my previous FHRS project User:Gregrs/python-fhrs-osm.
