Lively discussion about MapRoulette on the #OSM Community Forum. What do you think? community.openstreetmap.org/t/

#OpenStreetMap is asking for your help! Google is shutting down its link shortening service next year, and there are some OSM points of interest that require updating: maproulette.org/browse/challen

Here at MapRoulette, we are not huge fans of link shorteners, but we do run our own, mpr.lt, to provide OpenStreetMap with more concise changeset comments that still include a full backlink to the MapRoulette task. Costs less than $100/y to run. Want to chip in? Every $/€ helps! --> openstreetmap.app.neoncrm.com/

@MapRoulette Gosh so many Google Map links and broken/outdated stores and whatnot. Fixed a few just now though

Have you run a MapRoulette Challenge for your community? We would love to share your story in our upcoming @sotmus talk! Thanks for sharing!

The new #MapRoulette integration in the latest #OpenStreetMap Rapid editor is an easy way to discover MapRoulette tasks while you are mapping! Try it today: rapideditor.org

@heigit has a cool new #OpenStreetMap #dataviz tool: ohsomeNow. You can query by hashtag, for example #maproulette :)

Not quite sure I understand the map; at the top it says 8,509 contributors (which seems too little) and the bubbles on the map would add up to way more than that number.

A few new #MapRoulette challenges to note: Adding crossings in Austin, TX, USA: maproulette.org/browse/challen, adding missing POI maproulette.org/browse/challen and updating old POI maproulette.org/browse/challen both based on #AllThePlaces data.

Do you want us to feature your challenge? Let us know!

Did you know that MapRoulette now points you to the **specific task** for the OSM change in the changeset comments, saving some bytes in the process by using the mpr.lt domain?

Did you know that MapRoulette has a development Kanban board that anyone can view? Take a look: github.com/orgs/maproulette/pr and perhaps you get inspired to take up a ticket from the backlog yourself? We're always happy to welcome new contributors!

We are about to reach 500,000 changesets tagged with #MapRoulette for the year! Why not try a few tasks? For example, add detail to playgrounds worldwide: maproulette.org/browse/challen
