"Have you seen any other mappers that are highly specialized?"

Yeah. They're super cool!

"Are you one yourself?"

Ummmmmmm...!

[DATA EXPUNGED]
Mohd

Last July, apparently due to trolling those who are really obsessed with ""conspiracy theory"" around Diego Garcia (still one of the many pieces of land colonised by Britain)... some Malaysians decided to, uh, "vandalise" Google Maps data for said island.

Someone successfully put "a shelter for mourning Liverpool fans" (in Malay - ah, don't you love football banter) on the map.

I guess those with an eye on the map data had a great spring cleaning later.

Great news! Izzy's F-Droid repo offers the Bluetooth GNSS app too. Well, not sure if it would work without Google Play Services...

The forums will be migrated to https​://​community​.​openstreetmap.​org/ which is using Discourse

Wow... in the year 2022, there are still programmes using tiles with the legacy MapQuest OSM rendering?! What?! How?!

There was an announcement by the prime minister this afternoon, regarding some road-related infrastructure improvement works. But apparently his prepared speech mentioned a location I've never heard before. Probably older generations knew better.

I was actually looking for "Jambatan Menjalara" in my local city. Lucky me, a cursory search landed me some clues.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr... I was so preoccupied with stuff! Someone from 🇵🇭 Phillipines (Mikko) dropped by over Malaysia (very likely somewhere near Kuala Lumpur) about a few weeks ago... hmmm...

Mohd

And also Meta's keyperson (that AI stuff thingie) might drop a visit to KL/Malacca in a month or two 🤷

Someone is trying to do "Mapillary in Leaflet"

Mohd

(Grrr I know, Meta, but) mapillary.com/app/?pKey=111277

I guess these rubber barriers may be OK if someone decided to map as multiple carriageways

My personal recorded GPS tracks since 2014, produced with erik.github.io/derive/

Yeah, there are still more places to map (but yet I still have to put it on #OpenStreetMap)

Mohd

Well... I don't usually go to Kuala Lumpur (and it's obvious) 😅

That track was actually recorded on a sleeper train on diesel IIRC. Wow, I do miss the train a lot: now it's all electric and is faster.

@AkuAnakTimur nothing outside Malaysia? Not even Singapore?

@AkuAnakTimur
I'm doing more or less the same, through Trackbook app (on @fdroidorg).
It allows you to record your trips and uses OSM.
The advantage is that it's phone-local only, so privacy is well preserved too.
