Main activities overview
We just start with active OSM mapping and for now will concentrate on detour routes in Baden-Wuerttemberg. Currently detour routes are often missing, broken or do not reflect the current signage. We use them to detect conflicts between road works on the main route and it's detour.
Tools and Data Sources
We'll be using osmroutefix, Level0, ID, and standard OSM tooling. We will also make use of our detour routes data source and knowledge of employees.
Participants
Our team consists of the following OSM users:
Training/Instructions
All our mappers are permanent or temporary direct employees of our organisation, LST BW. All junior mappers will be given basic training in specific tasks and may or may not be active mappers. Employees that have left their roles as mappers, or former employees are listed as 'retired'.
QA
We use the [OSM Relation Analyzer](http://ra.osmsurround.org) to check completeness after editing.
