Mapping Reading

I spent Saturday mapping Reading for OSM. This consisted of walking around an estate with a GPS and Matt Lee from CNUK. We did a depth-first search of the roads, and you can see our trace here in puce (I think it’s puce, I thought it was purple but that doesn’t look right. Tom?):

OSM is a brilliant project. I must see what needs doing around Peterborough.

Matt and I talked about the need for a Free Culture Foundation, which I think he may be doing something about now, although in a slightly different form.
