Introduction
Hello, my name is Attila and I come from Rákospalota, Budapest, Hungary.
My goal is to have OSM be well mapped in the area I live in and where I go (and where my friends live).
This includes detailed land uses, aligned roads, forest land cover everywhere and rivers, streams, buildings, addresses, POIs and other smaller stuff.

In Hungary:
Eastern Hungary and Budapest mainly, but I touched some parts in Western Hungary (especially in Somogy and Zala Counties).
In the US:
- One of the maintainers of West Virginia wiki page.
- I edited Marshall County, West Virginia in OSM from July 2020 until January 2021.
- Coshocton County, Ohio from January 2021 until September 2021.
- User:Ottwiz/ottwiz-mapping-50-states a side project for summer 2021.
- Raleigh County, WV and its surroundings (since December 2020 until December 2021)
- User:Ottwiz/ottwiz-mapping-wv Between October 2021-February 2025
I learnt a lot by mapping that country, because it has so diverse land uses compared to Hungary, where there are many croplands crowded into a ~100 acres of land (or more). I mostly map forests and align roads there, aligning the TIGER import mess, every state has poor data, but West Virginia is doomed completely, so I've already aligned a lot of roads by mapping that area. (Although, I'm focusing on mapping ONLY forest land cover recently)
Currently in progress:
Mapping forest landcover for PA. I haven't created a page to it yet.
I also made some presentations, like how I mapped USA or my own area: Github link
It may happen that I don't map for a while because of university studies/work or personal life.
